Mixed Media Figure

This was my final piece for the project. It remains somewhat incomplete due to the lack of time, but in a way I preferred it this way. My favorite part of the picture is the sky behind him and the different shades it takes on like the grass.

Butcher Block Drawing

These are the few examples I created. I'm in the process of applying the Higgins Black India ink. Instead of applying the colored cutout shapes, I want to retrace over the figure I chose and make small  adjustments to perfect it. This is easily my favorite unit so far in the class. I've repeatedly watched the videos on Schoology to try replicate the elegance in the artist's hand. It's impressive and inspiring to have the ability to draw something in front of you.
