In this drawing I had some goals to get to. Some of those goals were to to get the shadow correct and the lighting. I also wanted to get the shape of the take out box right. I did this by keep shading certain areas darker than others and in other areas lighter. When I did this I was surprised how well it turned out.
The most difficult thing for this was to make the chop sticks look like chopsticks and shading them. I accompished this by focusing on how the chopsticks and the light was for the shading. For the shape I eye balled how they wee tilted and how thick they were. Although my drawing really worked were the shadows are.
While doing this I have l learned some new things but if i had a do-over I would change some things. I would change the way the chopsticks are and change the shadow of it too. I would also try to make some of the white parts more white. Over all I feel like the best part about my drawing is the big shadow of the to go box.

Into the darkness
While I was making this drawing I had some intentions and some surprises about my work. Some of my intentions were to really get it to look like the picture that it was based on. I also wanted to make the drawing seem mysterious when people look at it. Some of the surprises while doing this was how well some parts turned out. I loved how white the white parts were. I tried really hard to make it really white and I was surprised how well it looked at the end. Another surprise was the shading of the wall. In my opinion it turned out great. Although if I had a re-do I would change the texture of the floor. I would try to make the floor better with the texture and not focus so much on the shading. Over all I feel like my drawings turned out ok and I’m happy with the result.

Halloween Pumpkins
This picture is two pumpkins with nice shadows that I drew with charcoal. I had a few goals for this drawing and I'm happy that I made it to those goals. My goals were to try to make a cool affect with the shadows and shading with the pumpkins. I even wanted to try to make the shadow as realistic as I could. I accomplished this by finally getting the shading right for some of the shadow areas. I also got to lock in my shadows so I could shade them correctly.
My drawing was about having dramatic shadows, making my pumpkins realistic, and having nice texture on my pumpkins too. By doing this I had some challenges I had to face. Some of those challenges included making the white parts look right, blending the darkness with the light, and locking in the shadow. The shadowing was the most challenging because the shadow changed a lot so I had to make sure I could get it right. The good thing is that I accomplished these challenges by keep going back and fixing the shadow to make sure it looked nice. I also overcame the light part my using chalk to make the white parts for the lights really white. By doing this I think my drawing really worked on the sides of the picture and on top of the pumpkins. I also think the white parts turned out great.
While doing this I have learned how to trap my shadows before it moves again and how to put my shadows into the drawing. Speaking about learning I have also learned some things from my classmate Emma and my teacher Mr. Gaudreau. Emma taught me how to blend curtain things and Mr. G taught me how to trap my shadow.
Lastly if I had a do-over for my drawing I would change the size of my pumpkin and make it a little bigger than it is right now. I would also try to make the stem more realistic. Although even if I had a do over I would still keep the sides of the picture the same. I feel the best about that and the light looking down the pumpkins. Over All I'm happy how this turned out and I can't wait for the next drawing.

Into the Darkness
This challenge was to take pictures with cool lights with shadows and to see what kind of cool affects the darkness could make. I actually had a great time doing this too.

Alive Drawing
In this drawling my goals and intentions were to get the shadows in the right place and make the shading really nice. I did that by using certain drawling pencils for certain shadows. My drawling was about dramatic shadows. The most difficult challenge I had was making the edges pop for some of the letters. I accomplished this challenge by making the edges a little darker and blend it in with the rest. My drawing looks really cool at the top left hand corner and the letter "A". Some things I have learned for my next drawing is that which pencil I should use for what shade, how to make my edges pop, and blending for the corners. My mentor was Wolf Kahn for this because he blends lots of things together and so i learned somewhat how to do that from him. Another artist I learned from is Emma Kropkowski she really made her letters pop and look so good. If i had a do-over of this drawing I would add a cool in there to make another cool shadow. The best thing i like about my drawing is the Edges of the paper because I feel like it gives it texture or life.

What My Family Means To Me
Since I'm the only child I consider my puppy my brother. The best thing about having a brother as a dog is that I can vent to him and I don't have to hear him complain about it. |
Over all I wouldn't know what to do if I didn't have these people or pet in my life. My friends are like my sisters because of how close we are to each other. They are the reason I'm glad to wake up every morning and go to school. They are the reason I stay my happy little self. I truly love them so much. For my family at home I love them as well. We have great times and Zack (puppy) always makes us laugh or puts a smile on our faces. I am so thankful for the people I have in my life.
