Meylin

What are we going to do and why? How do you feel about this assignement?

We are drawing a portrait of a kid from Honduras. I am drawing a portrait of Meylin. We are doing this to show these kids that there is someone out there who cares about them and hopefully they will realize that we love them and Jesus does too. I am excited for this assignment and I am happy that we get this opportunity and get to show our love through art.

For four weeks, I got to practice drawing with three different mediums. I have worked with pencil and colored pencil before, so it was fun to get to do that again. I have never worked with oil pastel, so that was very new to me, but I actually really liked it. I learned that each of these materials is very different and requires different techniques. The medium I ended up choosing is oil pastel. I am choosing it because I have never done a big project using oil pastels, so I want to give it a try.
