Van Gogh sketch

Physical response:
When i first started saw the Van Gogh sketch that i had to draw i honestly did not know where and how to start. Then with some help from Mrs.Bammi, i got started. I did not look at the sketch as much as i should have, i kind of just went with the flow of my drawing, with just a few peeks to see the basic structure of the painting. When i was doing this piece of art work i was really nervous that i would
mess up, but i think it was a lot of fun sketching this piece of art.
BY doing this sketch i did learn some skills, like for example how to and when to us different pens. I learned to see the depth in the drawing like when i should us a thick pen and when to us a thin one.
A connection that i made is that in science class we are told to obsurve different substances using a microscope, just like we are told to do in this art class. We were told to observe our drawing and pay close attention to it.
If i could do this assignment again i would have spent more time on the background of the tree, i spent all my time making the tree itself and then ran out of time, and behind the tree there are only lines now.
From this lesson i learned how to do black and white sketch with simple lines and curves and how good the outcome can be.
I felt relaxed while i worked on this assignment, while i was sketching my drawing, it was a good time for me to think. Thats one of my favorite parts of drawing and painting-being able to think while we work.
I am very satisfied by my final outcome, but but i think if i did not rush it in the end with my background i could have done a lot better. But in general i am happy with my final piece.
