This class was the first visual studies class and we first started the class drawing a lot of things such as our hands, other people’s knee… After that we were required to draw our shoe/feet with only one color, and then with color. Later on, we all put our customized shoes in the middle in an artistic way and we drew them twice, once with color and once with black pens only.
I struggled a lot in this session, because I don’t think my drawing skills are good. The part I struggled the most was the hand drawings in the start, I had a very hard time with my time management and with my drawing skills. The thing I enjoyed the most and that I was the most successful was the footwear drawing because I used to take lessons on still-life drawing and painting, so I did my best as much as I could remember.
Overall, this class challenged me a lot because of my drawing skills, but although it was hard, I tried to make the best of it by just doing my best and having fun with it. I realized that I don’t want to do something related to drawing, so this was an eye-opening session for me.
