I drew some peppers with chalk pastels. I started by drawing lines to make the outline, forming the shape of the peppers. The texture of the peppers was created with the chalk. I started by adding light gray shading to the peppers and gradually darkened over time. I adjusted my shadows and dark areas by lightening them with white chalk, or darkening them with black chalk. Bellpeppers remind me of my home in California, because I ate them often there.

Using a pencil and a paper I have recreated a beautiful fruit, the Papaya! A new skill I used in creating these was shading. l I added value by shading my fruit, crosshatching and hatching lines to suggest shadows. I contrasted the edge of the top Papaya to make it look like it's above the other one. Observe the fruitful creation. I chose Papaya as my subject because in Brazil I ate a lot of them. Papayas are my favorite fruits!
In this fruitful creation I drew blackberries and leaves. I drew with a pencil to create this. I overlapped, thickened, and darkened the leaves to show which ones were above. By darkening certain objects I practiced a new skill and added depth to my drawing. Also, the blackberries themselves are dark, as they stick out from the plant. I like blackberries due to their strange look, but I would rather not eat them, yet I did have fun drawing their unusual shapes.
Strangely enough, I am not drawing fruit for my first drawing, yet a bunch of squares! Swirling ones to be exact! I used a no.2 graphite pencil and a plain piece of paper. Lines were used to create the shapes outlines and the patterns inside them. Value was shown by making some lines darker and some lighter, I used shape in making triangles and squares. Form was utilized in drawing the cube and I used space in making objects behind the cube look smaller.
I also contrasted different lines of different darkness, creating an effect of depth. I used pattern, to create the swirling design on each of my shapes. This drawing makes me happy, because it'strangeness is entertaining. It looks like a parallel universe or something, because the illusions are 3D. What do you think of it? |
