This is a portrait drawing, which is a drawing of a picture. A new skill I have is highlighting different places Art elements used were shades, highlights, and variation. These create a more realistic drawing that represents the image it's based on. It shows how much I have learned about portraits.

I can draw a face with the correct proportions – head shape & feature placement

I can draw features the correct size in relation to each other and the head

I can create the illusion of three dimensions by drawing around the surface of the face to create the form of a head.
5
I can indicate light by using a scale of values for shadows and highlights

I can draw with the pencil and not smudge so I create clear textures for skin, hair and any other details.

I learned that the human head is bigger than expected, epically the forehead. The nose and mouth are actually close and the eyes are closer together than i had thought. There are many different parts of the face that i had not drawn before and they make the art better. The neck is not as small as i thought. Also i need to shade to add depth. eyes are more almond shaped and need definition. 
 
 
This is an impressionist drawing made with chalk using an image i took of mt is. New skills i learned are shadow and highlight which help the drawing look real. also the usage of complementary colors help it look good. I used shading to make it lookalike the photo. It gives off a natural feel that reminds me of north end. it is very true to its surroundings.
