Explain for Leftover

I got the leftover from the Thanksgiving meal and the meal in the Chinese restaurant. I got a fantastic Thanksgiving meal in my friends house. And on the black Friday, my friend and I went to the mall and eat some Chinese food. Finally, I took the picture of those leftover.

artist choice

My goal and intention is to mimic my photo and draw it vividly, especially to compare the dark and light parts.  Firstly I put the charcoal on the paper as the background and then divide my original photo into many small box by using marker. And then i cut the paper into a proper size. Finally, i draw each little part by observing the photo and erase the light part. The thing that surprise me the most is that the contrast of light and dark.  Its looks like real one. This drawling is about the contrast of light and dark and the gradual change on the shadow's edge.  The most challenge for me is to draw is the shadow of leaves of trees. i draw the contour firstly and then erase the light part. Finally, i make the shadow of leaves darker and made the gradual change on the edge.  My drawing really works on the contrast of shadowing in the photo. I think the way I make the strong comparison of shadows in the drawling can be brought into my next drawling. The teacher  really helps me in some details. I learned that how to make strong comparison of dark and light. and I learned that how to do the gradual change on edge from Ivy.  I would make the contrast much stronger. The best thing of my drawing is the light and shadows.

Mackenzie's take out box

My goal is to create the various lights on the box and lead you into the picture. I want people can be led into the picture by the chopsticks. Firstly I put the charcoal on the paper as the background and then pose the chopsticks that let them be almost vertical to your viewpoints. Finally, drew the box and erase the light part. The thing that surprise me the most is that the light on the chopsticks was shown so vividly be me. Its looks like real one. This drawling is about the contest of light and dark and the gradual change between the light and dark. the most challenge for me is to draw the difference of shadows on the chopsticks. I observe the light in details, i changed at least 5 methods to show the slight difference. I start to observe it not only by using eyes and my imaginations as well. I think that this may be a way that artist thinks. My drawing really works on the difference of shadowing on the box, and the way that the light lead you in. I think the way I observe objects and the way i shift shadows can help me in the next project as well. The teacher  really helps me in some details. I learned that how to shift the shadows in slight details from him. I would add an extra chopsticks into the box  and draw a more diffcult one. The best thing of my drawing is the light and shadows.

TAKE OUT BOX

My goal for this drawing is to show the various light on the take out box by using charcoal. I want to draw the box from special view point and draw it vividly. Firstly I put the charcoal on the paper as the background and then drew the box and erase the light part. The shadow of the box really surprise me because it looks like a flower.  This drawing is about the shadow, and the most difficult challenge for me is to reflect the shadow vividly. I observe the light in details, even in every difference of shadows on the box. I start to observe it not only by using eyes and my imaginations as well. I think that this may be a way that artist thinks. My drawing really works on the difference of shadowing on the box, the light one and the dark one. I think the way I observe objects can help me in the next project as well. Ivy really helps me in some details. I learned that how to take care of my drawing from her. I would add an extra chopsticks into the box  and draw a more diffcult one. The best thing of my drawing is the light and shadows.
