Describe: My piece is a selfie of my best friend being funny and ridiculous with underwear on her head. Her facial expression is a half smile with her lips together and shes staring at herself with her eyes wild open. Her face has lot of different colors and textures in it with her freckles, highlight from the flash, and a little bit of a sun burn.
Analyze: Her picture has lots of different colors and tints of each color especially in her skin, she has freckles that are all different sizes and tints and she has some red in her cheeks like a sun burn. Also, the way she took the picture adds some highlight to he nose and forehead because of the flash. The picture also has a lot of balance with the proportions of her face and the colors together. I had to figure out how to make it where you couldn't see her ears because of the underwear but still able to see her eyebrows and not make it look to preposition and balanced. I also had to mix colors to evenly to get the right skin tone in the right places. Interpret: I pick to draw my best friend Emma because she has been my best friend for 15 years and she knows me better than anyone else. I wanted to draw something that was meaningful but not to serious because that is just not us. We are always making each other laugh and our bond is like none other and I really wanted to represent our friendship and personalities in a picture and this is the best one for that. Judge: I think I was pretty successful with her face features being the right proportion and showing her facial expression. I learned from this assignment that sizes and details in the face are very important when it comes to making it look more so realistic and actually like what you're drawing.

Drawing UnitThe warm up that was the most helpful for me was the upsidedown Picasso drawing. This warm up helped me only focus on some shapes at a time and keeping my preposition right. It help me not think too much about what part i was drawing was because I was only going shape by shape and because it was upsidedown.
Composition is how something is made up. Its the placement and arrangement of the visual ingredients. It means “putting together” and apply it to any art.
Value is the lightness or darkness of the color. White is the lightest value and black is the darkest. It defines the depth in the work of art. Pros for pencil drawings:

She is located in Copenhagen, Asia. For years she has been making paper flower and her progress includes, cutting through 50 to 60 layers of paper at a time to create the flowers. Her work is inspiring to me because it’s 3D, colorful, and very different then most. The paper flowers look real and beautiful to look at. All the layers really make it stand out and detailed. Her work makes me want to work really hard to created something that I can be proud of and makes me happy.
