Face Drawing
For this art piece, we practiced shading to recreate pictures of ourselves. This project was really hard for me. I really enjoyed shading me face portion and playing with the eyes and nose. Once I go to the hair is when I enjoyed it less. The texture was hard to get right and so was the coloring. Overall, I like the result from an upclose perspective.
Oil Painting
I don't like this painting. I chose a coconut because it was cute and I thought it would match any place I wanted to put it. I didn't think through all the texture a coconut has. After lots of trial and error and many layers of paint I finally got to an okay place. It's not my favorite but I couldn't figure out how else to fix it. If I did this project again I think I would pick a less textured food.
