SO,
When I got back from drawing on Tuesday, my set up had been knocked over - no pictures.
The fabric assignment was actually quite enjoyable for me - I love drawing drapery; it's one of my favorite subjects.
The charcoal, however, isn't one my favorite mediums, but in pencil form it wasn't too bad. I used a little bit of vine charcoal to help me map out my composition, because it just smudges off. Using the ruler was a little cumbersome (it kept smudging my lines and getting charcoal residue all over my drawing), but in the end I liked the result and appreciated the challenge of depicting something more lyrical in nature with harsher straight lines. Also, I hope this homework shows I've learned my lesson! Only achievable goals! Think about the time limit when making decisions!
Pacing...that's going to be the biggest lesson for you. You seem to pick up on the concepts easily enough. But pacing yourself and/or taking on projects you can conceivably tackle in your allotted time is just as important.
