Reflection-25.2.10

Today in class I continued from where I left off on my portrait. I have already drawn up my border by white chalk on my black background. Once I got my photo and turned it upside down to draw the negative shapes, I started from the foot and continued up to my head. I noticed that using white charcoal was much harder to draw with because it doesn't show as clearly as white chalk does so I swapped it around during mid way. Drawing the love heart I made was the hardest because the chalk was really thick and my fingers were really thin so it was pretty hard to determine the shape of my heart pose. When we had to stop drawing since class was nearly over , I turned my project around and realised that it didn't look as bad as I thought! I just needed to complete my head and fill in the details. I had a lot of fun to be honest! :)
