Candy Jar Drawing

The second drawing that I was assigned to draw was a glass jar filled with candy. This drawing was very unlike the bike drawings we had previously finished. This drawing was a more laid back scenario. We could have a bit more fun with it at first. Unlike the first drawing where we focused mainly on value and composition, this drawing we focused on making the glass jar look like glass and shadowing. In this drawing we used colored pencils and layered colors over one another to create new colors, lighting and dimensions. This drawing, though it was more laid back than the bike drawings, I believe it was more difficult. Making the jar look like glass and adding shadows were very hard to do and a little nerve wrecking (as colored pencil doesn't erase as easily as normal pencils do). However, I still enjoyed the drawing and found that the challenge helped develop my skills. In this post the following pictures are included, the stages of my jar, the before and after adding of shadows, the origanol picture and finished product and lastly the final product on its own.
