Artists statement:

In this image I drew, I tried to show a corner of a room in my house. It contained a window, a bag of cat food, a side table, and two aloe plants. I spent 30 minutes on this sketch to see what I was capable of within that time. I used the pencils, 2H, H, B, 4B, 6B, and 8B. I also used a few charcoal pencils. I used different sized tortillons in order to cover different sized areas. I started the sketch by drawing the walls, and the table. After, I drew everything else. Once I finished sketching, I started to shade. I tried to draw the pattern on the curtains but they ended up smudging so I turned the smudges at the bottom to where the curtain folded in. I spent about 5 minutes on each different item, starting with the plants, then the cat food, then the table, then the window.
