Paper Bag Still Life Assignment

This contour line still life drawing captures the delicate details and textures of a crumpled paper bag, a lemon, and a wine bottle. Through continuous lines, each object’s unique form and surface are expressed without shading, relying solely on the flow and variation of line weight. The crumpled paper bag is drawn with intricate folds and creases, the lemon with subtle curves to suggest its texture, and the bottle with clean, smooth contours. The composition emphasizes the contrast between organic and geometric shapes, creating a dynamic study of shape, texture, and negative space.
