Contour shoe

I think contour drawing helped my drawing by helping me out with shapes and lines. Muscle memory kind of stuck and I was able to actually draw good or decent for once.

iPad art

Some similarities I found were that it is still hard (for me at least) to make the colors blend well. Another similarity was that shading is the same--hard. A difference I found was that the shadows for some reason were easier on the ipad than oil pastels. I think that I accomplished something that actually looks OK although it doesn't look that good in my opinion. Technology is helpful by getting your name out as an artist but I don't think art should be made electronically or by technologically.

cartoon skeleton

I had to exaggerate on the spine and the fingers. I had to modify the skull and I guess are the cheeks or the mouth which was confusing. I had to make the toes look right because he as three claws so he only has three bones in his feet. I had to make the pelvis super small because his waist is really skinny. The ribs were hard to do because I didn't know how to make it look like it curled around like real ribs do I learned that it is a lot harder than it looks and I appreciate art a little more now. Over all I think I did well for someone who isn't good at art/drawing at all.
