Ribbon Candy by Hannah Z.

This is an observational drawing art of some fruit flavor candies drawn using black and white charcoals.

Artist’s Thoughts:

This piece was done in 2D art at school: we were learning how to use charcoal to creates shadows and highlight in our drawing to make the drawing look more realistic. For our summative of this unit, we were allowed to choose one of our favorite snacks and create an observational drawing from it. This is a challenge for me, because this was the first time that I was using the white charcoal and since charcoal was harder to control, making the image clean also became one of my challenges. Drawing an observational drawing could be hard at the first because I was confused and don’t know how to start. However, I enjoy the process of drawing because I have a sense of fulfillment when I finished drawing it.
