Drawing - Week 2 - 20/02/2019

-
The model for this lesson was the skeleton, I genuinely love drawing skeletons just not realism I like to do a theme in a cartoon or neo-traditional style. though this was quite fun, to see if I could draw something that I really draw in a different style from my regular style. It was quite hard at first because I had to stop myself from exaggerating the bits I would so in my normal style. I also got to look further into proportions and black paper. As I wanted to see if I could use the white to extenuate the highlights and somehow use the black paper as the shadowing.
