1. Explain the process you went through to develop your drawing.
When developing my drawing, I first chose the idea that looked best to me and. After deciding what to draw, I started with the eyes first since those are the hardest part of self portraits to me. 2. Discuss your choice of how you represented yourself (mechanical, expressive, stitched together, etc)? I chose to represent myself as a realistic version of a human flower. I put little flowers in my hair, in my left eye, and in the corners of both my eyes. I also surrounded myself with butterflies to give off a nature vibe. I wanted to go for a simple yet detailed look overall. 3. Did you achieve a full range of value within your portrait? How? I believe that I could of put more value in my face to add a more depth around the forehead area. 4. Describe your craftsmanship. Is the artwork executed and crafted neatly? I drew this portrait with the 2B graphite pencil and used a shaded it with the H graphite pencil. I do think that this portrait is crafted neatly. 5. How were you able to capture your look? I do think I somewhat captured my look. I also feel like I got a bit off track while trying to get the head shape right. 6. Explain how you made sure you had correct facial feature placement. I used the feature placement guide we learned in class. 7. Explain the importance of learning how to draw all the features individually. Learning how to draw all the features individually helps you work faster and improves your portraits by making them look more realistic and accurate. 8. What part of this unit was the most beneficial and why? The most beneficial part of this unit was the eyes. I think so because before this unit I was only able to draw one eye and the other one would look terrible, but now I could both eyes and have them look somewhat presentable. 9. List any obstacles you had to overcome and how you dealt with them. I had trouble drawing a good head shape and I dealt with it by using facial guidelines to help me make it look more even. I had trouble drawing even eyes, and I dealt with that by drawing each eye step by step at the same time. 1. Worms eye view of someone's shoe

Describe how you created an interesting point of view? Was it successful? Why or why not?
I created an interesting point of view by lining the plastic balls to look like they were getting smaller as they got further away. I was successful because in the drawing you could clearly see that it's converging towards a single vanishing point. 2. Why is it important to understand perspective and how to draw it? It's important to understand perspective and how to draw it because it could add a realistic and natural touch to your drawing. It helps create the illusion of space and depth. 3. How were the pencil and perspective exercises important in the success of your piece? The pencil and perspective exercises were important to me because they helped me have a deeper understanding when it comes to looking at things from a perspective other than my own. 4. Describe the craftsmanship of your piece. What techniques were used? (How well the project is technically crafted). In my drawing I used graphite pencils to draw out each ball. I used one point perspective and would say that this project was well crafted. I also believe that I could have been neater while drawing out the circles, but I wanted them to have that realistic look. 5. Explain your experience with using perspective and the project in general. What were the obstacles and advantages? My overall experience with perspective and the project in general were positive. One of the greatest obstacles I faced was drawing out the font on each ball. The way they were positioned made it hard for the words to look even. One of my greatest advantages was the easy shape and perspective. 6. Looking back on the progression of this project, what skills, techniques or other information would you like to have been taught? Do you feel you were prepared for this project? Looking back on everything I would of liked to have been taught a little on reflections. My drawing involved reflections and it was a little hard trying to get them right. Other than that I feel like I was well prepared for this project.
