Visual Arts Wk14 - Study Week

Using Charcoal (Conte A and 2B)

For Study Week, Nelson showed how to draw portraits using simple shapes. As I was drawing the eyes, I felt that the eyes were too big but I realise that people have different shapes and sizes such as longer eye brows and big eyes or small eyes and big noses. I want to focus more on drawing a variey of eye shapes in the future.  

Using Charcoal (Conte A and 2B)

This was my best skull drawing I made during this semester.What I should have done is remove the structure lines so the drawing is more clean and also, work more detail on the neck bone. I would like to continue improving on drawing details of the skull. 

Using Charcoal (Conte A and 2B)

This is my second time drawing a portrait and it turn out better than I expected. I feel like I made both the nose and lips too big but, other than that I think I've improved dramatically. The shading of the face got easier thanks to the charcoal. For further improvements, work more on not making the nose and lips too big and work more on hair and using structure lines.
