As promised here is the rest of the artwork which I have not posted yet. Like I said in my previous post I got a near perfect score and I was shocked by this. Other students, their artwork to me looks so much better. So much more creative. But they asked what I was interested in doing and I think they take this into account when they decide on the scores. If I had said illustration I probably would not have been graded as well but the group I will go into on Saturday will be focussed on Theatre Design, Fashion Design, Interior Architecture...and one other I can't remember right now. Essentially on observing our environment and it's characteristics and designing/creating things that fit with it. So my eye for proportion, line, colour etc is very valuable whereas someone who can paint a near perfect landscape may not have the qualities to be as successful in this course (just as I would not be as successful in the fine art group they will be going into).

I am disappointed with these photos but I do not have time to retake them. They are all at a strong angle which means the proportion looks a bit wacky. Oh well.

I am posting the good as well as the not good and even the really really bad. You can see the list of what we were supposed to do in this post. These are in the order that I did them.

pencil, 2.5hrs Btw the angle that this and the photo below are taken at is very very bad. In the drawings, the top of the bottle and the bottom of the bottle are both the same width. They are not as they appear in these photos -- I just don't have time to pull everything out and retake the photos unfortunately :(
