Crooked Pot “Just an uneven pot we had to draw in class.” - Gerardo Martinez This is a line drawing made in Adobe Illustrator. It is a one hundred line drawing of a pot. I drew lines from left to right and from the bottom to the top of the pot while observing the actual pot in front of me. I adjusted the size and the speed of my stroked lines to carefully form the structure of the entire object. After I have formed the basic structure of the pot, I drew additionl lines from the leftover lines I have I still have in making this a one hundred line drawing to form the small details of shape of the object such as the lid of the pot. The idea of this drawing is to teach myself how to prepare drawing any figure by first learning how to draw the basic structure of the object. Also, the drawing would teach me how to draw the object with stroked lines which would teach me about consistancy in lines and similarities to the object itself. I want the audience to see how my lines begin to become consistant after each line from the bottom to the top. I also want the audience to be able to see the resemblence of a pot formed from all the lines drawn in this artwork. A one hundred line drawing of a pot. 2 - Uncanny Subjects Uncanny Subjects - 3
