Value study for self portrait

Egg shells

This is the no line egg drawing. I used the sharp and soft edges instead of lines to show the roundness of the egg shells. In the left shell, I used sharp edges on the top break part of the egg and soft edges on the left side where the shape of the shell next to the grey background. On the right shell, I used sharp edges on the left of the shell, and the crack on the top, to show the distance between the front shell and the back shell. I used the background to show that the egg shells are sitting on a cardboard, give it a more 3D look. 

Portraits

Goya ' black painting

Goya, Spanish painter, famous of portray painting and scary painting. And this are our Goya black painting. 

Skeleton

Boxes and chair

I used charcoal pencil to draw the subject exactly. By measure the ratio between lines and the angle, can give us a accurate drawing of the subject.

bones

I like this drawing, because first, the shading is really realistic, it shows the roundness of the bone. It have a good foreshortening, we can see the feets is closer to us. The back ground is real neat and have different values. The only thing missing in this piece is the organizing lines. So we can't see how it was measured.
