Unit One Project
I composed a graphite drawing based off a vintage photo (credit currently unknown) while studying the techniques of artists James McNeill Whistler and Alphonso Dunn.
Whistler is known for his soft portraits, while Dunn is known for his confident pen lines. I tried to bring elements of both these artists' styles into my piece.
If I did this project again, I would use a heavier eight pencil to bring in darker shadows, and attempt more preliminary thumbnails.
