Still Life Drawing
I personally think I did okay with this drawing. I tried to use the value scale as much as I could and I think I did pretty well with the tape dispenser as far as values go. I was able to make some things in the drawing look fairly okay using the value scale and some types of lines. I also believe that I did well in paying attention to the shadows. I feel like I should have done a lower angle, that way I would be able to add a horizon line to break up all the negative space around my objects.
Line Quality Drawing
I think I did well making the dark edges of the bottle as well as the light thin lines of the spool. I did well using a full value scale throughout the entire drawing. I like the dark values throughout the picture. I think it was really important that I made it so you can still see the bottle through the tangle of string. I like how I made the direction of the light source noticeable.
One Point Perspective
I think I did really well with the values, as well as making the mountains in the background look really far away. The road is my favorite because I was able to make it disappear into the distance. I also like how the sky isn't a completely solid color, and it appears to be slight overcast. I wish I could have made the storm look more like a storm. I feel like it looked very bland so I decided to try and add in a storm last minute. I didn't have enough time to make it look the way I wanted it to look and it's hard to tell really what it is.

I dislike how the nose is outlined. The left side of the head is unsymmetrical. There are very short eyelashes that I wish I would have made longer. I like my contour on the face minus the nose. The ends of the mouth appear to be too long, as they should have ended in the center of the pupils. I like the shadowing on the neck.

Two Point Perspective
I wish I had more time to work on the shading specifically within the sky and the grass. I like the shading within the building and along to top of the building. The composition in the photo I chose wasn't done well although I rushed through the assignment so I was not able to include all that there was to include. I like the curving around the edges of the columns, it makes them look more 3D.
