1) My artistic skills have grown in the past few weeks as a result of my learning of shadowing. We learned many ways of shadowing as well as different writing utensils(Graffite,ink and charcoal) to shade. The practice we did with shading helped me grow this skill and have a better understanding.
2)My thinking about what makes art original has changed during this unit because before I was in this class I thought that art had to be a completely original idea that no one else has ever made before. I came to find out that it's not like that at all; people steal ideas and change certain things about it to make it there own. Inspiration is a big thing also when trying to find ideas to come up with "original artwork".
3)The main challenge I've had this unit was drawing the hands. They were really difficult for me because I couldn't draw the fingers right and nothing about it was working out. This is most likely because no ones showed me how to draw a hand like that ever in my life before.
