For these four images,  my SMART goals were centered by drawing characters that I enjoyed. My drawings were a bit stiff and I struggled with proportions and facial expressions. I noticed that a lot of my drawings were a bit light, so I added some depth to them as well, making them look more defined. I began focusing on giving the characters their defined features without straight up replicating from the show.

I learned quite a bit about line weight. The first thing we learned was how to distinguish between different thick or thin lines. The second thing we learned is how it plays with distance. Thinner, smaller objects seem farther, while thicker, bigger objects seem closer. The third thing we learned is how it can be used to shade. Thicker, darker lines represent the shadows.

I learned a bit from her work. She taught me how to really express my emotions in my artwork. Before her, I had never really drawn something without planning it or sketching a rough draft of it. When we tried it ourselves using chalk outside, I found it a bit difficult to just let go and see wherever my hands take me.

We learned that still life included a variety of objects of different sizes and shapes put together to include in your portrait. Some techniques of still life were being able to make your object clear, and group them with others in a way that wouldn't take away from the main focus point. My object was a bracelet. I brought it because a friend from Singapore had made it for me, and it represents the friendships I've made there. My focus was getting it pretty realistic and to try and bring my bracelet as the focal point.

I made a graffiti inspired work to represent my knowledge of line weight. I added a thickness to the darker blue to represent a shadow of the word "faith" and bring it out more. I chose faith because it was just what I needed with me changing schools and all. Overall, I felt really accomplished with this drawing. I felt I fit the criteria in a creative and personal way, and I really loved how the colors turned out.

My object for this still life project was the bracelet in the front. I placed it in front of the glove as it had a completely different shape and size. In this project I learned how dark and light values work together. In this project, my fatal flaw was paying too much attention to detail, and ran out of time because of it. What I should have done was start with the basic shading then if I had more time, do more complex details.

Overall, I feel like I've grown a lot with the techniques I've learned in this class. I was able to find my own art style. The most important thing I learned was that I tend to be pretty detail oriented. Moving forward I would like to work on the speed of my artworks, and not to be a perfectionist.
