For this activity our teacher hung a large piece of cloth on hooks and we drew it using white and black charcoal on a colored paper. The difficulties that came with creating this included that first of all this drawing is large, second of all we had to give the cloth which was white a good body on this colored paper which took alot of layering.
One thing that was extremely out of the ordinary when it came to drawing this was that the shading had to start light and then grow darker whereas usually it is the other way around. Aswell as having to start drawing the cloth using somewhat of a line contour before filling it in. I have never drawn fabric like this before so it was an interesting, long, yet fun learning experience.
