Surreal interior perspective

This is a challenge to work on our skills with perspective.

My first attempt, the advice was to make it larger, and give more detail to the object on the table. Also that the pear needed to have foreground to appear to be visually in the interior

Although these appear to be the same size, the print below is actually more that twice the size of the first sketch..

Collage sketch assignment

This assignment began in class.  We brought materials for the collage and assembled them during class. the assignment was to reproduce, in pencil, a fully tonal, but slightly smaller version.  The photo is better than some earlier shots, because I was able to use natural light.  It does look a bit odd, because the light source used for the sketch is different than for the photo.

Mapping, Representation and Recollection assignment

I did this with layers.  This is the first representation:

It is the simple view, my personal water cycle in a simple form following the water.  The second representation shown below has "revealed" details - my house, the water treatment plant the wastewater treatment plant.

Boxes, tone and perspective

Our first in class pencil drawing.  Incomplete.

Sight-sized drawing

An outdoors class assignment to practice using proportions in our drawings.  I much over estimated what I could draw in this exercise, and ended up concentrating on just one little part of the drawing.
