Shades of Grey


The goal of todays exercise was to carve out forms from our paper by using shading and erasers as our pencil. By doing this we were forced to take shading into account to make our drawings look realistic. Whereas we might not think to do this, or to shade to this extreme if we were left to our own devices, but here were depended on the shading of each object to bring it to life.
I think my drawing came out okay, but I am always very critical of my own work. I think you could see each object. If I had started out my drawing by making the background all around darker I think each thing would have stood out more, whereas right now my drawing feels very....safe.
