Module 14: Free Hand Sketching (Core)
Outcome
Create free hand sketches demonstrating layout and proportion to illustrate ideas and support design processes.
Indicators
(a) Describe the purpose of creating sketches at the preliminary stages of a design process.
(b) Identify types of media available for sketching, including soft media (e.g., pencil, charcoal, crayons, pastels), hard media (e.g., marker), and wet media (e.g., ink applied with a brush, paint).
(c) Select the best medium for sketching in the context of a design challenge.
(d) Investigate line theory as it applies to sketching.
(e) Apply the skill of drawing to scale on a design challenge.
(f) Apply elements of sketching to a design challenge, including:
  • line;
  • shape;
  • form;
  • colour;
  • space;
  • texture; and,
  • value.
(g) Create a freehand sketch and shade of a natural form (e.g., a log, an apple).
(h) Create a freehand sketch and shade of a manufactured form (e.g., shoe).
(i) Identify drawings of geometric forms such as two-dimensional geometric figures, orthographic form and pictorial form.
(j) Sketch simple two-dimensional geometric figures and shapes, orthographic drawings, isometric drawings (30° and 60°) and pictorial drawings that demonstrate layout, proportion, accuracy and neatness.
(k) Explain how different forms of three-dimensional sketching such as orthographic, isometric or cantilevered drawing help change perspective of the product.
