I came up with the idea for this drawing on my own. For this project I learned how to incorporate perspective in to my drawings and shading with pencils. I have always thought castles were a cool subject and drawing one was fun. Using colored pencils with regular pencils was new for me and difficult. I used regular pencils which I usually use as a meduim. I didn't need any help from anyone for this project besides mrs. Rossi. I messed up a little on the shading of the castle walls but mrs. Rossi helped me with it and I then shaded the walls much darker. I tried out how I would draw the bricks on a separate piece of paper before I started my main drawing. I used the internet for ideas on walls.

See Through Project

    I got the idea for my bag because I bring my lunch everyday and I also saw a plastic bag drawing, that I thought was really good. I drew some of the objects in my lunch bag. I think I have gotten better with using colored pencils and especially the white color. This art shows my lunch and how I bring it to school everyday. Initially I was worried about the transparency of the bag but I think it now turned out alright. I picked black paper for my background which I don't usually do. Another student drew a plastic bag a long time ago I don't know who it was but that art really inspired me to draw this. When I drew the tile background the color turned out wrong and I have tried to make it work out. Before I started my final I drew a few bags on small extra black paper and then I got it down, before I drew the final. I also used a few images from the internet for examples.

Jolly Rancher

    This Is a red Jolly Rancher I drew. I used red, orange, yellow and a little of purple colored pastels for the candy. For the wrapper I used white and yellow. I used black paper for the background so the pastels would show up really well. I think I like to use pastels more than the prisma pencils, they blend very well and I thought they were fun. 

Peppermint candy

      This Is a peppermint candy I drew. It has a clear wrapper around it. I drew this with prisma color, colored pencils. I drew it on colored paper because the prisma colors look best on colored paper. 

Contour Line Drawing of Room

I drew this contour line drawing of the room. It is of the projector stand in front of my table. I used pen as my medium

Blue bottle

This is a translucent bottle that I drew. The assignment was to draw glass on a dark background. I used colored pencils as my medium and I drew a blue wine bottle. There is a shadow on the bottle and I used ellipse's for the bottom and opening of the bottle. 

Marble Drop

For the marble drop i worked with Kaleb and De'andre. Our theme is Mario. I came up with theme when I saw something about Mario on twitter. I came up with the marble falling through the pipes because thats how Mario travels. The most difficult part was having the marble roll in to the very first pipe after the stairs. The marble travels through pipes and on a few cardboard platforms. I would change how it ends, instead of it just going through a hole. I was most proud of the pipes and the Mario theme.
