Value Project Reflection

A. By persisting and engaging in the process of drawing and developing photos, I was able to create a drawing and 4 photo prints. I was able to resolve the issue of there being too much plank space in my drawing by shading part of the background and cropping the photo down to a smaller size.
I Feel like I have gained a greater sense of how to shade and make objects look 3-D from this project. I also discovered that different qualities of line can be very helpful in the shading process. I discovered that it is helpful to step back and view your drawing from a distance to get a better idea of the picture as a whole. I also learned how to develop photos from a negative.
B. I felt more comfortable with drawing because it was more familiar to me
I felt that drawing allowed for more expression because it is easier to change your drawings than your photos.
I think that if we could experiment more with the settings in the darkroom, aperture and time, then I would feel more comfortable developing photos
