Contour Line Still Life Self Portrait


Thumbnails


Finished Drawing

I brought in 3 items from home to draw a still life, first I drew thumbnails sketches and decided on the view I liked the best. I then made the one I chose into a line drawing using a pencil. The objects I chose were a small pumpkin, because I love fall, a camera necklace because I like photography and a mini canvas and easel because I like to do art. To create this drawing I used lines of all sorts of size and value. At first it was a bunch of sketchy lines, but I went over those and it evolved into a less messy drawing. I am proudest of the pumpkin which I struggled over and making it look less 2D I fixed this by using shadows, highlights and different line lengths. I like my drawing how it is, but if I had more time I may have added color.
