Images 6-10: Documenting the passing of time
Materials:
Pencil (2H, H, 2B)
Paper
Kneadable eraser
Technique:
Pencil sketching/illustration
Process:
Chose an object to draw (a candle) that goes through significant change. The first sketch was the candle untouched and in its primary form. I slowly burnt the candle and documented how it changed within 3 minutes.
Reflection:
I think the object I chose allowed me to effectively show the impact of time and in this case only 3 minutes. I had to work quite quickly to draw my five images as the candle burned fast. As a result, my shading and line work could have been done to a better standard. I found that by the fifth drawing, my line work was more confident and darker.
