DESCRIPTION: Objectives for this final project were to spend hours doing a life drawing based off of what we see. I chose to use objects that represented life and death and still life. I chose a foam hand, a plastic apple, a flower, a skull, and a blanket that laid upon the skull, all on a white table. My main ideal was to focus on the skull and the apple.

DESCRIPTION: Objectives were to do a life drawing based off of what we see. This was one of the first still life drawings that we had to imitate. Our professor chose the objects, and we drew them in our perspective. This was a challenge, as I had never drawn in perspective like this before. Gradually I tried bringing out the textures that the plastic figures imitated.

DESCRIPTION: Objectives were to do doing a life drawing based off of what we see. This was practice for our final two projects of drawing still lives. The professor hung a towel on the wall, and we had to choose a medium style of drawing, such as scratchy, just lines, or circles, etc, and then we had to draw in perspective. I decided to go with cross hatching as my means of texture.

DESCRIPTION: Objectives were to draw any random mediums with the use of values of black and white. I wanted to test out a random but chaotic style of mediums. So I focused on drawing anything that came out of my head.
