For my zoomed, I body part I choose to do my mouth. Choosing the subject for this was frustrating. I didn't want to do my hands, to common, same for an eye. I couldn't do my foot because I did that last year. I decided to do the underside of my tongue. This turned out to be more difficult than I thought because my, mouth kept cramping and I had to reposition my tired tongue a lot. I don't like shading with pencils so I thought I would just use a pen and do hash marks and line thickness to portray the same feeling. This is my favorite of the three, just because I like my penmanship. For the skeleton, I was as excited. I did the skeleton in the back art room that was wearing a fuzzy rimmed hat, an apron, and a taped x on his forehead. I first drew it out in pencil but again it looked weird with the graphic. I went back and added some details and line work with a pen. The problem with this project was finding things I wanted o to draw to represent my past and future. Oblivious my future is a skeleton that went out in style as I shall. But finding an object that I was able to draw that was about my past was harder because I wanted a deeper meaning. I ended up drawing a wheel that holds the books in the library. Going off the idea that in my past I wasn't living up to my potential, using my knowledge to do good things. Wasting my own time when it was possible for me to move forward. I'm relating this to the wheel because it is holding up all this wisdom but is just sitting there when it has the potential to go somewhere with it.
