Mermaid

Christian

I found a picture of my boyfriend from like 3 years ago and I decided to draw it, and add his favorite things like a wolf and waves and planets. I used watercolor and sharpie and pencil for his face. I based it off of an earlier drawing I did of a wolf 
And he turned out to like it a lot. I like drawing in this style. Watercolor is my favorite medium because you can blend colors. If I were to redo this I would use a more recent picture. Overall I really liked this piece. 

Summer pineapple

This was assigned as "summer". I picked a pineapple because its my favorite fruit. To eat and I love how it looks. Recently I've been obsessed with pineapples so, I decided to do that. I used my favorite mediums; watercolor and sharpie. I based this off of a picture I took over spring break. I like how this turned out. I donated it for the end of the year show and when I got there it was gone I hope it sold!!if I were to re do this project I would follow the picture more closely. I kinda made up the shadows and colors but when it came to the shape I looked off my phone. Overall I'm pleased. 

Ben

Unfortunately I do not have a picture of the finished project. This was another "your choice project"  I decided to draw a picture I took of my friend Ben. I chose Ben because he had been my friend for 14 years and he said he likes my drawings so I drew him... I kept this simple and just used a #2 pencil. It took about a day to complete it. Overall I like how it turned out. If I were to re do it I would have not done one eye and the. Stepped away, because stopping for a break made me lose a little technique. He likes it, so I guess that's good!
