Assignment One - Still Life with Natural Objects

I chose to draw this group of fruit and vegetables after making several drawings of the items in different locations.  Sorry about the fringe of my scarve in the drawing but I did not notice until I sent it away to the tutor. Perhaps items with more texture would have added more interest.

I do not really like coloured pencil but I felt the directions were very specific about using pencil for the main finished pieces.  I am not sure the cartrige paper was a good surface to colour on either.  For this drawing I used squares to enlarge the drawing after cropping it.  I also used the other side of the catridge paper which is a little smoother for the man made subjets.  I was very happy with my initial drawings and although the final pieces are ok I think that using coloured pencils did not really portray full extent of the preparation I did. But I think that the drawings I did in this assignment adequately showed the success of all the work I have done to get to this point.  So I am happy with the results.
