For this project, we started off with 9 different lines on a paper separated into 3x3 sections of the paper. It took me a while to decide what the theme of the drawing would be, but the semi circle at the top and the wave shapes at the top made me think of the ocean, so that's what I decided to base my drawing off of. Along the way, I got more ideas after completing each new line. I made the shadows long and angled away from the angle of the sun because it was sunset to make it more realistic. I tried to make all of the highlights towards the angle of the sun in order to make it look better too.

For this project, we started by taking a picture of our hands holding a tool. After that, we used a doubling technique to make our hand enlarged and also have an accurate picture. After we finished laying out our dots, we connected them accurately based on the picture. When we finished the drawing portion, we moved on to shading. We used special shading pencils that helped us get darker or lighter values easier. At first, my picture looked kind of plain, so I started adding more contrast. After adding darker values to the shadows and erasing the highlight areas, I though it looked better.
