one skill that I improved in this year is shading. I know this because at the start of

the year I knew nothing about shading to make objects look like they had depth.

and also using it to make shadows to make objects look more realistic. I got better

at expressing myself and my creativity because I got more confident with my

artwork and what I can do. My first artwork in this class really shows how I

struggled because it was really plain and bare and had nothing to it. and I

wanted to get better at making my objects pop and not just look 2D. The thing

that helped me the most was learning the techniques and class and actually

doing it in my artworks and getting better at it. My basic artwork really shows how

I've grown because there are a lot of Shadows and shading that makes objects in

my artwork 3D. if I ran into a problem I would try to turn it into something good

instead of doing the whole artwork over again. For example, in one of my artworks

that I did recently I used some colors that I wasn't sure about but then turned it

into something good by going along with it. yeah but I'm most proud of my basic

artwork because it really shows how I have grown and you can tell because there

is a lot of Shadows and shading. one thing I learned through doing this project is I

am really good at writing paragraphs.
