Gelatin extended

The assignment was to take our favorite print of the nine that were made and to extend it and make something out of it. The subject of my creation is the middle where the ink is because it really stands out. I added a bunch of ocean related things because there was the feather and the yarn and that reminded me of the ocean. I just used a regular 2b pencil.

I used line to extend the drawing and space so it wouldn't be crowded. I was originally going to make a bunch of birds flying around on the outside because of the color but then I saw the yarn and how it looked like rope so I tried to make the picture look like a captain's desk.

I like historical fiction/fantasy the sailor desk reminded me of like Peter Pan or something. I'm proudest of the map in the background because it looks pretty decent. I struggled with making the writing on the letters in the background. It was hard to make them look "old" and to make the words go the right way. I would fix the writing and make it neater.
