iI1) First, we practiced face proportions by measuring the eyes, and then creating the rest with reference to that, then we practiced drawing on top of a general skull outline. When i started my final i did the basic outline of all the features, then went in to put the darkest darks and continued shading to give it a realistic look. I made sure to keep pencil strokes to a minimum and tried to keep all the highlights
2) To find the different values in my reference picture, i put it into gray scale which darkened the values and made them easier to see, then when i transferred them onto my work I exaggerated them to make it look more realistic. 3) I think I reached all the different values in my piece because every part is shaded, even if is just the smallest amount which allowed all the values to flow together well and stand out in different parts. 4) I think my artwork isn't that neat, because of the style i use, but it was executed well in my opinion and overall i think the work looks nice and im proud of the way you can tell it is me even though it does not look exactly like me 5) I think my eyes and eye brow definitely added to capturing what i look like because they are a very prominent feature on my face and I think i executed them well. 6) To ensure correct facial feature placement , i used the tip MS. Rossi showed us by measuring the eyes and using them as reference, i had to manipulate parts of it to make it look more like me but overall that helped me to get everything in the correct place. 7) It was definitely easier to draw a whole face after i learned each feature by itself, because then i could focus in on each one and make sure it was correct / had enough value. I didn't know how to draw features realistically before this project but the videos and practice we did before definitely helped me to capture the look i wanted. 8) For me , the most beneficial part of this lesson was learning to draw noses, because that is something i had no idea how to do and i realized i was pretty good at it and i will take everything i learned and use it in future art works because drawing faces was something i avoided all together. 9) Some obstacles for me was drawing the lips and hair, i ended up with the look i have by being patient and really paying attention to the darks and lights in my reference photo and adding many layers .
