Chair With Coat.

Im just going to start out this blog by saying I am ASTATIC about my drawing! This drawing was considerbly easier for me to re-create on a the paper. The reason for this was it was a lot less busy in the sense that their was one main object that I had to focus on. I dont know how I did it but I think that was my best drawing ever! I used charcoal and that was it. It was a much different excperience than pencil and I enjoyed it a lot more. The skills I used was more spacing and proportion. I think that some of my drawing skills are coming into play. after all these years of art class I finally made a good drawing!

Fabric Drawings.

I feel as though this has been my most successful drawing yet! I was so jazzed when I finished because I made every thing bend in certain directions and my shading turned out nice this time. When trying to recreate the fabrics was a task that was difficult to say the least. Trying to make the folds and the floral patterns was the most difficult. Todays drawing actually felt different than the sticks but connected at the same time.

I feel as though I started out fantastically. Making the drawing was very difficult for me because their was so many aspects to the drawing it was very difficult for me just to focus on one. The out come for me came out very sub par, I feel as though I could do better but I do not have experience to.

The Changing Still Life

One thing we had to do is draw in detail quickly. This does not sound to difficult but I can tell you it is. Another thing we had to do is erase with fine detail. Erasing with fine detail is a daunting tasking and to make it even worse we had to use charcoal to draw which made every thing really messy. The final thing that we had to do is draw at a easel and not sitting down this is especially difficult because the rate that every thing was changing you would blink your eyes and it would be gone.

In a post on your blog describe how the drawing experience today felt. Describe specifically what you feel is successful about the results and/or anything you learned during the process.

I honestly think that was the most difficult drawing that you could have assigned. The only thing I felt was successful was at the beginning my shading but than I messed that up.

Talk and Draw

Today you were the "drawer" and you were the "describer".
What was challenging about this experience? What would you do differently if you had to do this activity again?

Some things where more challenging than other things. The most challenging thing for me was the drawing because we had three people and the other person was getting ahead of me. I think that if we where to do this again I would not rush as much and ask more questions because my interpreter was very vague.
