Project 5# process post
Project 5 was definitely an interesting one for, I like the finished product to an extent but I think the process of working through it was very valuable and taught me valuable lessons and that the process of it was more fruitful. First off It made the need for more extensive preparation very apparent to me, I spent probably 70% of the time fixing drawing mistakes and even then I didn't really get the drawing down. For the next project I am 100% using a projector. Also by w

Another thing which I will do next time is use a projector or gridding before I start. For this project I had

Figure drawing reflection post
On the weeks of September 28th and October 2nd my Art class did figure drawing with Tommy Van Auken. The drawings pictured above are my favorite drawings from the two weeks with Tommy.
