Additive Value Art of a Recycled Being Sculpture (art class)

Recycled Being
Drawing of Recycled Being

This project required us to make recycled still life’s out of whatever recycled materials we could find. We also had to make an Additive Drawing based on the recycled beings that we made. I wanted to make my recycled being be as wild as possibly could but still have some restraint when making it. I chose to use objects that would remind people of what my generation did when they were younger, They would eat peanut butter(Skippy Jar bottom left), ramen noodles(green bowl on the left), and strangely hot Cheetos(paper airplane on the right). I tried to draw my recycled being first before adding enough shading to make it look more 3D on paper. But afterwards it still looked the same except more darker than I wanted it to be. i then erased all of the shading and tried to add some different and more gentle shading where it needed to be and it came out as decent as I wanted it to be.
