Choosing your meaningful object to draw
How to select objects:
1. Read the IB learner profile traits and choose one that describes you.

2. Think about what object you could use to represent that trait. Example:
a figurine of a bird to symbolize PRINCIPLED because you believe it is
important to treat every living thing with respect.
3. Bring in your object so that you can draw it.
Here are guidelines to help you make sure your object will work for the drawing:
1. Objects must be 3-dimensional. Meaning they MUST have length, width and depth.
NO PHONES ALLOWED! NO EXCEPTIONS.
2. Objects CANNOT be people/animals or pictures/photographs of people/animals.
3. Objects CANNOT be pictures/photographs of people/animals in action poses. For example if you want to show balance you CANNOT bring in a photo of a ballerina.
4. Students are not allowed to draw from a drawing/print. Again objects must be 3-dimensional.
5. If these guideline are not followed your grade will be affected.
Things to do when you are ready to draw:
- Make sure you are using the drawing paper that is provided (not hole punched paper). The punched paper that we do bell work on is NOT drawing paper.
2. Make a contour line drawing of your object first.
3. After you have all the lines in your drawing you are ready to start adding values or shading. Remember to use a regular pencil to shade, NOT a mechanical pencil.
