图案城堡

我们创作了这些综合材料绘画，以尝试多种技法：用不同工具绘制黑白图案，并用水彩为背景上色（需做出明暗变化）。本次创作中，我们虚构出一座座城堡，它们拥有众多塔楼和彼此独立的区域，这为我们设计各式各样的图案提供了绝佳契机。

绘制城堡时，我们参考了下方两张工作纸上的范例。第一张纸上展示了一些城堡主体结构的示例；第二张纸上则呈现了不同造型的塔楼、门与窗。每位同学可自由组合各类元素，搭建出独一无二、富有个人风格的城堡建筑。

首先，我们用铅笔勾勒城堡轮廓，拼合各类部件；接着，用永久性记号笔描摹所有线条。随后，我们运用「图案」「禅绕画」「肌理」等手法，严格采用黑白两色，对建筑各区域进行装饰。在设计这些装饰纹样时，我们使用了多种工具，包括「钢笔」「铅笔」「记号笔」「蜡笔」等。本课重点在于图案的丰富性、原创性及差异化表现。

待城堡各区域均以不同图案、不同工具完成装饰后，我们用水彩为背景上色，采用「湿画法」（wet on wet），以便色彩自然交融、形成丰富的色阶变化。为更精准地绘制天空部分，我们将画纸翻转过来操作，并频繁转动纸张，使画笔能沿画面外缘画出笔直的线条。

Pattern Castles

We created these mixed media drawings to experiment with various techniques: creating black and white patterns with different tools and painting the background with shaded watercolors. For this work we invented castles, with many towers and separate areas that became a pretext to create many different types of patterns.

To draw our castles we were inspired by some examples that you can find on the 2 worksheets you see below. On the first sheet there are some examples of the central body of the castle, on the second sheet you will find different shapes of towers, doors and windows. Each student assembled the castle as they liked by composing different elements, to create a unique and personal building.

First of all we drew the castle with a pencil, assembling various elements. Then we traced the lines with a permanent marker. After that we decorated the various areas of the architecture with PATTERN, ZENTANGLE, TEXTURE, all strictly in black and white. For the design of these decorative motifs we used different tools such as PENS, PENCILS, MARKERS, CRAYONS… In this work the focus is on the variety, originality and differentiation of the patterns.

Once we had finished decorating the castle with different patterns and different tools, we painted the background with watercolor, with the “wet on wet” technique, which allows you to mix colors and create chromatic shades. To work more precisely on the sky we turned the paper over, and we turned it often to trace straight lines with the brush along the outer edges of the drawing.

Here are all our amazing pattern castles:
