SHAPE
All seen things encompass one of five shapes.
GEOMETRIC: related to plane geometry (circle, triangle, rectangle…)
RECTILINEAR: shapes composed of all straight edges or lines (not geometric shapes)
CURVILINEAR: shapes composed of only curved edges or lines (not geometric shapes)
IRREGULAR: shapes composed of a combination of straight and curved lines (not geometric shapes)
AUTOMATIC AND/OR CALLIGRAPHIC: brush marks, spilled paint on the ground – these shapes are not controlled.
Shapes can be either objective or non-objective
OBJECTIVE: related to an object (representational)
NON-OBJECTIVE: no relation to an object (non-representational)
Draw twelve equally sized squares, each of which is to be viewed as its own compositional (picture) plane. Each square must be equally spaced from each other.
Draw one black shape in each of the twelve compositional planes. Make sure that there is no or little repetition in the types and appearances of the shapes.
Use as much of an 11’ x 14” sheet of paper as possible.
