As I reflect on the drawing and shading of myself porterait I see things that I struggled with as well as the things that I grew in. This project fored me to persurve even when I thought that I was not going to like it or when I had to redo things over and over. I helped me to grow in the way that I view the draings around me and the work that went into them. Towords the end I felt like I had a better understanding of how to do the project and was more confident in what I was doing. When I first did it I was scared of making it to dark but that forced me at the end to make things darker so that I could see the differents between the light things and the dark things. Over all I think I enjoyed this project and it turned out better than I though it would, and that made me happy.   

To be honest when I started I thought it was going to be easy but I spent the first few days just looking at it because I didn't know where to start. When I would paint the food it didn't look right and I couldn't figure out how to make it look like how I wanted it but after I got some help I was able to figure it out. For each thing it took me a second to figure out how to do but once I figured it out it was easy. I had to redo the background a few times but I like how it turned out. Over all I really enjoyed this project and I'm happy with how it turned out.
