Which option gives the correct sequence of form construction?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: First basic form, then proportion, then light and shadow
Constructive drawing proceeds from general structure toward specific information. The artist first identifies and places the basic geometric form, such as a box, sphere, cylinder, or cone. Next, proportion and placement are checked so that the parts relate correctly in size and position. Only after the structure is reliable should light, halftone, reflected light, and cast shadow be developed to describe volume. Option A gives this correct sequence. Starting with details can produce attractive fragments but often causes proportion and construction errors. Beginning with a shadow or folding the paper does not establish the observed object’s structure, so options B, C, and D are unsuitable.
