Still Life and Aberrant Scale
I did this piece with coloured pencils. I originally filled most of the page with a rubber band ball. To make it look huge I added a small desk with a chair and a ceiling light. I finished it by adding a little bit of shading for shadows. I wanted the sketch to be pretty simple. I didn't want to add a whole room or any other objects. The rubber band ball is my still life piece, the chair and the light are there to make the rubber band ball look huge. I had originally only wanted to do the rubber band ball but I added the other objects to fill the requirement. It actually looks pretty cool so I think the project was a success, I usually draw cartoons or realistic portraits so drawing still life was kind of a challenge. I had to redo it a couple times to get shadows and angles right. It was relatively rigorous because the rubber bands are hard to follow so there was a lot of going back and fixing lines that I didn't realise connected.
