during this drawing i got better with pencil skills. i learned to control my pencil better while drawing smooth lines. i also learned to shade better while using the graphite pencils. i still dont like charcoal and refuse to use it.
this artwork reflects who i am because i like to chew gum and this piece was about unwrapping gum. i thought it was fairly easy to draw this because it was a flat rectangle. at the same time it was hard to shade because it was a flat rectangle
for this project i used a graphite shading pencil which i have never used in the past. it was different because i had to get used to it so it made the drawing darker than i wouldve liked. at the same time the drawing looks smoother so i will probably continue drawing and shading with this pencil.
