Drawing Keppsakes

This task involved drawing  my Grandma's ring, in many different ways to represent emotion and the story behind my keepsake.




I really enjoyed trying to represent my keepsake with different marks. Using one line, meaning never taking my pencil off the paper, was a very interesting way of representing the ring. I am very pleased with the outcome and think that is was a good way of visually explaining the continuous flow of the story behind my keepsake.

Drawing with my eyes closed was a really good way in discovering textures I hadn't even thought of representing. I had only my sense of touch to guide me through the drawing. Not only did this task allow me to discover the textures present on my keepsake, but I really had to pay attention to them in order to represent the ring  well. I think I did a good job considering I couldn't see what I was doing. If I were to try again I think I would make the drawing bigger as this would complicate drawing the proportions and therefore I would challenge myself more.
