This was the final design for the leaf project.  I believe that I could have spent a little more time on it and the overall craftsmanship would have been better.
This was my original idea for the project, but I developed a simpler design with more of  place or sanctuary for the twigs.

Hands Drawing

Five things


Some of these worked out, but with the ring I had some trouble getting the proportion and scale right.

Blind Contour Portraits

As I said before, I'm not good at drawing people so this really isn't too bad.  I need to pay more attention to the object rather than what I am drawing.

Blind Contour Hands

Had I actually been looking at my hands and then at my drawing and drawing what my mind thought it saw, these would not have turned out as well.  I am not good at drawing people or hands, but these are not bad.

Negative space Chairs

These actually turned out better than I thought they would.   I was still trying to figure out exactly what negative space was.

Shoe Drawing


I can't draw shoes... so this was the best I could do.

Negative space of Bike


This was not a really good example of negative space.  The drawing has too much detail.
