Clear object

While having a little practice working with shading and highlighting from my previous assignment with the figure drawing, I can say that I proved while drawing my clear object. Though it may look like a cartoon, my practice on drawing real life objects needs to be approved on but I have the chance to work on it than before and its in progress. This is what I can do after working on this technique of shading and highlighting to define edges to make it realistic.


This is my second drawing of a clear object because I was not too satisfied with my first drawing, so I started over again. I was very focused trying to make it look like what is in front of me and I was enjoying myself. I kind of had a hard time with the highlighting and shading part after sketching the object due to where I was sitting and how the object was positioned. I like working with Charcoal. For one, it was very new to me and for two, it was so manageable when I wanted to shade rather than a pastel. To highlight some parts on the object, I used a crayon and when I wanted to shade on top of the white crayon, you can see the scribbling lines and that is why I started over. So a replacement of the white crayon was an eraser which was more useful than a crayon. My end product looks like a cartoon image but I'm proud of my shading and highlight and I felt good about it.

I like to challenge myself and that's what I like to keep in my head while doing anything in life. WhatI challenged myself with while working in this current project was shading and highlighting with charcoal and an eraser as well as the biggest challenge of trying to draw a clear object. I would like to work with clear objects more to better my skills at this and the technique of definition in my pictures.
