Part 1 – Pepper drawings

Date completed: July 2024

Medium: Ink

This part of Project 4 was my favorite out of all of the projects. I enjoyed using ink as a medium to create unique drawings because it felt very raw and detailed. The peppers are organically shaped which creates a visually intriguing effect that reminds the viewer of human skin.

Part 2 – Skull

Date completed: July 2024

Medium: Conte crayons and charcoal pencils

For this part of Project 4, we needed to create a skull drawing using conte crayons. This was my first time using this material and I like how silky it felt on the paper giving it an aspect of clay. The colors to me are very interesting since they contrast well together and overall it was very satisfying to complete this drawing.

Part 3 – Self Portrait

Date completed: July 2024

Medium: Charcoal pencils and conte crayons

I loved this process and it turned out better than I expected. I have never drawn a self-portrait before and I believe this represents me very well. I was very happy with this final result since it was something that I wanted to do before but I never tried before because I was scared of the outcome. The colors and the details are great to bring this image to life.
