Measured constructive drawing

 For this piece I chose to draw a small jug. This was also something new to me as I had never constructed a piece in this way. After a few attempts, I understood how to accurately use circles and squares in order to construct the jug using precise measurements of the circumference and heights. This piece is not shaded so as to show how I was able to draw this using line and weight and the measured constructive technique. I also did a series of drawings and thumbnail sketches to back up my work before I was finally able to grasp the technique. I really enjoyed using this method as it made the jug look a lot more 3D, even with just the use of line.

Here are a series of small thumbnail sketches I constructed so that I could get an idea of how this jug would need to be accurately put together using this method.

Here is one of my earlier thumbnail sketches which wasn't so successful.

This is another measured constructive piece I did after I had attempted the jug. This mouse was challenging at first because it had some unusual shapes and curves to it. 

These were some of the thumbnail sketches I used to work out how to draw the mouse using the constructive method.

Overall, from this weeks task, I was able to accomplish some new types of skills using this method. My drawings aren't perfect and I think this will help me develop my accuracy going forward as I have had a go at using this useful method. This was a skill I had not done before and I enjoyed the new challenge.
