This is a drawing of a grocery bag, done in pencil. I feel like pencil is not my strong medium to work with, but I am still working at it. This is a drawinf of a grocery bag done in conte crayon. I thought this would be a little more difficult to do, because you are not able to erase anything, however I was pleasently surprised that I did not struggle with it.

Plain & Perspective

This is my drawing of One Point Perspective This is my Drawing of a two point perspective This is my drawing of a three point perspective picture This is my drawing of an Ants-eye-view This is my drawing of a birds-eye-view. This picture was really hard for me, and I am still not pleased with it, but because of time constraints, here it is. I think I will try doing a birds-eye-view icture again of something else as a subject to see if I can get the concept down better.

Still Life of shapes, also a design to follow in creating the next image. Here is my still life done in the texture paper created perviously. This was a little difficult for me to create. I really like doing collage work, but this one kind of through me for a loop. I found myself wanting to add pencil to define the shapes and shadows better.

Color

"Red Dancer" Cut Out in a momochromatic color scheme of red. My inspiration for this piece came from the piece pictured below by Henri Mattise, The Creole Dancer. I originally intended for the Ballerina to be still in a stationary pose, however as the piece evolved, I changed the position of the torso, to a leaning position, thus adding movement.
