"Monster riding a unicycle drinking a milk shake through a straw"

7"X10"

The subject of my creation is a monster riding a unicycle drinking a smoothie through a straw. I tried to have the background seem dark and dusty due to the spaceship. I tried to choose a card that seemed fun but also challenging. I used my imagination to come up with how I want to draw a monster riding a unicycle drinking a smoothie through a straw. There were many ways I could have drawn this. This relates to my life because this is something you would never see, so by imagining it I can think about what this might actually look like. I chose to create this because out of the two WhatchamaDRAWit cards I chose this card seemed the most interesting. I used value to show the darker and lighter tones. I also showed contrast on the monster by shading darker areas, while lighting other areas.

For this project, I used pencil, colored pencil, and pen/ink. I first drew the outline with a 2H pencil, I then traced the monster and unicycle with black ink pen. After I used colored pencils to make my art more visually appealing. I shaded the monster in using value highlighting important parts.

I used value to show the darker and lighter tones. I also showed contrast on the monster by shading darker areas, while lighting other areas. I also used selective focus by making your eyes focus on the monster and unicle, by adding color and darker values, this was my motive in creating this, so your eyes are drawn to the most important thing in my art piece. My project evolved throughout this project because I had to keep erasing the monster and position it in another spot, also the idea of what else to add in the background kept changing. Next time I want to add more in the background making it more visually appealing.
