You see that photo up there, well that's my shadow project. Most people will think it's weird, unless of course you're from New Zealand. I wanted to draw something that reminded me of home and someone who's maori is as pretty close as you can get. When I started drawing him I used tracing paper to get a faint outline of different areas of darkness. After the outline was complete I started with the darkest part and then tackled different areas of the face. Even though I don't think this drawing turned out well I'm happy I at least attempted to do it. The only thing that was bad about this is the inexperience in shadowing and that is the only thing I would change. Personally, shadowing is hard and not so fun but I wasn't unhappy drawing him. I learned that even if I don't like something I can do better next time.
