The main idea in the 3 of these sketches was to not spend much time on them and see if I could make the sketch as realistic as you can. 

For all three of my sketches, I used a regular graphite pencil on some drawing paper. 

For my Self-Portrait I  wasn't sure where to start so I ended up sketching lightly to shape my face and face features since those were the biggest parts of the sketch, and then went ahead to go into the details like my hair, eyes, eyelashes, eyebrows, etc. For my Perspective sketch, I went to the corner of one of the school hallways and tried my best to make the dimension look like a corner instead of a flat wall. Lastly, for my Still Life sketch, I looked around the room and found a little plant on the side of the window and decided to draw it because it seemed pretty simple with the simple shapes and little details it had.
