Reflecting on the Critique

The critique that we had during class was very helpful. Sometimes it is hard to remember what others say about your work, but when someone else takes the notes for you, then you would not have a hard time remembering things. Over all, I believe that this type of critique was a good critique than what I had before because your peers critique your work and so do you.

Self- Portrait of Food

This project we had an option to draw or make a piece that uses the theme of food or our interest. I chose to do a self-portrait by using different food to represent my features. For example, I will be using broccoli to characterize my hair that mostly is in a bun, peach for my cheeks, strawberry for my nose. I also will be using grapes to symbolize my eyes. In this piece I will do a water color wash and work my way in pencil. The size of the paper is 13" by 12''

Metal Kitchen Tool in progress


This piece was done in pencil. My success with this piece was adding the value, the value has different contrast that makes it look more metallic. My struggle with this piece was drawing the form, it was hard getting the right shape.
