Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)
My goal is to be able to draw people and other objects and make them look realistic. I'm not very good at it yet, but hope to learn more on how to draw portraits and learn more about value and contrast that are in good portraits. I would like to gain a different perspective of pencil drawing to further my skills. I enjoy drawing and other areas of art very much. I would like to pursue an art career and advance in my art abilities.My understanding of drawing faces has grown and my ability to draw expressions also has improved.
Measurable Outcome(s)
I learned several different techniques on how to draw faces and objects. I saw gradual improvement in my work. This study allowed me to see the big picture when drawing instead of focusing on all the little details. This helped me produce better drawings.
