Original Sketches

my crafting drastically improved during this project. At the beginning a didn't have a strong sense of what made a good composition, but by the end I was editing my own drawings and giving myself feedback. I still have to work on a lot but specifically using space whether is is placing my drawing or figuring out the relative size of it. Proportions are sometimes difficult for me to capture because I'm worried about simply making the drawing "look good". I can also work on drawing fluid lines. Sometimes I tend to make less smooth, choppy lines which could be eliminated when they aren't needed. Capturing the full object also proved to be difficult for me. I had some trouble figuring out how to represent the three dimensionality of my object. I tried to accomplish this using shading and shadow which helped but still weren't enough. The painting I made somewhat illustrates three dimensionality but that is the closest I got.
I think as an artists, my strength is in small more precise lines rather than larger fluid ones. This is because sometimes I get too caught up in making it "perfect".
