While drawing the human head skull and measurement drawing I learned quite a few things. The side of the head is much wider than most of us perceive in our drawings it's around six inches wide. Also the human face that we all draw and perceive as round is actually not round. The eyes are one eye length away from each other and the side of your head, the ears start at the top of the eyes and end around the end of the nose. The neck starts by the ears and I never really thought of it that way. The eyes are round on top and flat on the bottom with  the iris as a round inside the eye to make the eye glassy you don't shade it in on the way with light shading. This is what I learned while drawing the human head and face.

In this drawing I used measurements taken of my head to help represent a lifelike size of my head in drawing form. I learned a lot about the size of my face and how everything I'd proportionate and line up even at a side shot. Everything was measured out to help perfectly represent the size of my head and face.

In this drawing I used a picture as a reference to draw a skull that is lined up and the same size from both angles. I learned that the structure of the skull has a larger backside than I had already known. The structure leaves space for eyes and the nose but I am not aware if the cracks in the skull are normal for everyone.

This is my impressionist landscape drawing which i used oil pastels to replicate through my own vision the lake I visited on a trip in Leavenworth, WA. A new skill I gained on while working on this was shading with complementary colors. The art elements that I used in this are: form, color, value, space, and line. This reminds me of the summer trip I took up to this lake and all the memories that come with it.  

I have just finished getting my pictures and will upload shortly and I will be starting the pastel drawing tomorrow

This drawing is called parliament  I used different colors of pastels to show my own interpretation of a historic drawing. A new skill I gained during this drawing was using pastels, mixing colors together to create other colors, and drawing in different directions to compliment the original work. The main art elements that I used during this pastel drawing are line, shape, color, value, space, and contrast. This drawing made me realize how hard it was for the original artist to do and made me gain respect for the artist.
