For this assignment, I had to draw three different three dimensional shapes in three different mediums. I drew a cube, cone, and sphere with pen, graphite, and charcoal. My least favorite medium to use for this assignment was pen because i felt it turned out the worst of the three mediums. It was also the most tedious and demanding of the three mediums. My favorite medium for this assignment is a tie between charcoal and graphite. They both were very easy to use to express and portray three dimensional shapes. They both were easy to transition between different values unlike the pen which essentially kept one constant shade but the shade was determined by the number of pen strokes. I learned that with a brightness there is usually a shadow that is next to it but fades/transitions from shadow to brightness. The shadow that the object cast is called the cast shadow (sphere). The shadow that is within the actual object and adjacent to the cast shadow is the core shadow(sphere). Opposite of the cast shadow is a highlight signifying light shining on the object. In my opinion, the cone was the most difficult of the shapes to draw. I think because it was the shape i was least familiar with drawing.
