I have learned more skills about drawing in pencils and charcoal. The charcoal is really hard for me to control. THe negative space drawing has improved my skill of outlining which is my weakness. My object is a candle and I think the glass part is really hard to be realistic, but I think I did a great job. The thing that I found doesn’t work is that I am bad at controlling the darkness of the drawing, there wasn’t enough contrast to show the flame burning on the candle. For future drawings, I will care more about the difference of darkness and take care more about outlining so that I could make the drawing more realistic.
