I started out wanting to have the figure in a different setting (on the floor of a bathroom), but I decided that an ocean background on rocks would fit better with the piece's composition and overall feel. I decided I liked the figures position in this particular stance because you can still see the profile of her face and the different angles of her body that capture light and shadows differently. I had redone the background a couple of times and I found it hard to achieve the right colors, skin tone, and find where the light hit her body. Though I was liking where my piece was going and the direction I was headed with it. I did the rocks last because I wanted to focus on the hardest parts of the painting that required the most detail. I struggled with many parts of this figure project and making sure her body was proportional to the rest of her body parts and making sure I was able to capture an ocean scene and that she was'n't awkward upon the rocks. I like how the piece turned out in the end. I think the most successful aspect of the figure is the shadows and light that she displays, something I would develop further next time I am when working with a figure, however, is possibly adding even more depth and creating harsher lines and drama.

I was at a very good viewing angle for this model; however, I had some trouble trying to get her feet to look right.

These were really fun to do, especially since the figures switched positions every 30 seconds, it forced you to draw quickly.

Since one of the model's legs were propped up, it was really hard to make the foot and hidden leg look right and normal, especially for my angle.

I thought this piece was fun to sketch after the original,  though i thought it was a bit difficult to get the proportions right (I think I made the legs to big).

I had some difficulty sketching the models due to me being at an awkward angle.

The pen aspect is the three different crying eyes in the piece, the watercolor is the different splotches and shapes of colors and the tears streaming from the eyes.

I went with my first thumbnail option, because I felt like I could show all the most important aspects of my life that keep me grounded.  Like I explained for my first thumbnail, I drew my feet in a fun position and the left foot (my left) has headphones wrapped around it as music is something that keeps me grounded and is a very important part of my life, along with the earbuds, there are music notes next to my leg to go along with the music aspect. My right leg on the other hand has ribbon wrapped around it since fashion and clothes are a big passion of mine as well, and something that keeps me grounded and makes me happy. My right foot is holding a paintbrush between the toes and is painting a flowery scene with it as art is something that also keeps me grounded and at peace. Next to it is a drawing of my best friend's eye since she is a major part in my life and keeps me grounded and always supports me and my decisions no matter what. My legs are submerged in water as swimming and the ocean are something that has always been a big part of my life. I've been swimming (competitively and noncompetitively) since I was 6 years old, and the ocean represents travelling as growing up my family and I always travelled around the world and continue to travel to new places to experience new cultures which is something that keeps me grounded. I chose the colors based off what I thought complimented each other. I used graphite shaded with peach color pencil for the legs and feet. I used different shades of blue and green for the eye to match what my best friend's eye looks like in real life. I outlined the iPod, headphones, and music note in a black ink pen, along with the eyelashes and eyeliner of the eye. I used different shades of pink for the shading of the ribbon. I also used color pencil for the scenic picture I'm painting on the bottom of the paper. I used watercolor for the water aspect of my piece and put salt on top to make it have a water looking effect. I added different strokes of watercolor to the top of the piece to add a pop of color because when we were doing the peer critiquing, a lot of people said adding a fun background would make this piece stand out more.

1.) For the first thumbnail, I started with a sketch of my bare feet in a fun position, the left foot (my left) has headphones wrapped around it as music is something that keeps me grounded and is a very important part of my life, along with the earbuds, there are music notes next to my leg to go along with the music aspect. My right leg on the other hand has ribbon wrapped around it since fashion and clothes are a big passion of mine as well, and something that keeps me grounded and makes me happy. My right foot is holding a paintbrush between the toes and is painting a flowery scene with it as art is something that also keeps me grounded and at peace. Next to it is a drawing of my best friend's eye since she is a major part in my life and keeps me grounded and always supports me and my decisions no matter what. My legs are submerged in water as swimming and the ocean are something that has always been a big part of my life. I've been swimming (competitively and noncompetitively) since I was 6 years old, and the ocean represents travelling as growing up my family and I always travelled around the world and continue to travel to new places to experience new cultures which is something that keeps me grounded.
2.) My second thumbnail is much simpler than my first one, my legs face upward; however, they are in the ocean and surrounded by bubbles (to add a cool effect) as I said before, the ocean represents travelling and swimming, which are two big things that keep me grounded. I would add lots of different variations of shading if I chose this thumbnail.
3.) My third thumbnail is my legs stretched out, the feet resting on a tree, and I am sitting at a part since I love being surrounded by nature. Next to my left leg, I am painting the flowers next to the tree, since art is something that keeps me grounded, like I said before. To the right of my leg, my best friend is lying on the grass next to me, her hair is wrapped around my leg (to add more excitement to the piece and to the eye) since my best friend is someone who definitely keeps me grounded (as I stated before).

1.) For drawing 'love', I decided to draw three small images: one was a male holding hands with another male, a male holding hands with a woman, and a woman holding hands with another woman with a large heart bordering them. For the 'mountain landscape' drawing I just drew a normal green mountain with white snow covering the tip of the mountain.
2.) On the first day of doodling, I drew a face of a girl because that is usually my go to when doodling, I love doodling faces, especially eyes.
3.) For drawing 'lots of hair' I made a face frame with red lips being the only detail in the face, so people could identify that it was hair that was surrounding it. I decided to make the hair blue, to make it stand out, and blended darker hues of blue to show the different contrasts of light and dark in the hair.
4.) For drawing my favorite food I am drew a cheesy slice of pizza.
5.) I drew the white detailing on the left side of the mural, on top of the other previous images.
6.) For drawing something I loved I drew Jessica, a macaroon, a rose, and some other small doodles.
