i did improve on my detail during this semester, but not as much on shadowing becuase i didnt get enough chances to do shadowing. being an artist means to express yourself on paper with vivid colors, so that the world can know your perspective on life and the things around you. i do consider myself to be an artist, but not in the traditinal sense. i find drawing indricate things satifies the passion that i feel about the world around me, that being said, i do like painting.
