You may use the glass from a cheap 8 x 10″ picture frame. If glass\, tape the edges.)Use a permanent marker (Sharpie) to draw two crosshairs on the plastic\, a horizontal line and a vertical line crossing at the center of the plane.  \n\n\n\nTwo black “viewfinders\,” 8 x 10″ \n\n\n\n(Use construction paper\, poster board\, or other board\, cut to match your glass/plexi.) \n\n\n\nFirst draw diagonal lines from the corners to find the center as shown. From one\, cut a rectangular opening of 4¼” x 5¼” and from the other; cut out a larger opening of 6 x 7 5/8″.) See the image. \n\n\n\nYou may also want to cut a third smaller window\, any size\, so long as its corners are also on the diagonal lines. Black paper for the windows will be available in class. \n\n\n\nA wipe-off black felt-tip marker (watersoluble\, like Vis-à-Vis\, sold in stores with school supplies)One or two metal clips to fasten your viewfinders to the plastic picture planeOptional:Pencil Sharpener (If you want a battery-operated portable\, choose one with a “helical”(spiral) cutter.If you have trouble finding the supplies\, many of these things will be available for use in class. \n\n\n\nIf you have any problem obtaining or understanding the materials list\, contact the instructor at mmnece@juno.com. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nLearn to draw anything by learning to see as an artist sees\, with emphasis on the perception of contour\, negative space\, proportion and value.
