The document provides instructions for a still life drawing assignment. Students are asked to render at least 7 objects placed on a tableau, paying close attention to light, shadow, and reflected light to depict volume and three-dimensional space. Composition and the placement of objects should be coherent, balanced, and make use of foreshortening. The grading rubric evaluates successful use of foreshortening, compositional balance, and a naturalistic depiction of real objects in real space that demonstrates an understanding of tonal value and light.
