This week I was able to complete the sketch of my political commentary piece. I did the sketch mostly with an HB pencil to keep the marks light enough that they wouldn't interfere when I went back in with colored pencil. After finishing the sketch, I dove right into the coloring. I was able to complete the bottom half of the face, creating a mosaic of the various skin colors and ethnicity. This process took awhile just because I had to continuously switch pencils and work on shading everyone out to be smooth and aesthetic. At first I wasn't sure that I liked how it looked, but after seeing it continue to come together I have hope that it will be successful. I am hoping that when I do the american flag and the colorful pattern on the forehead, the designs will mesh together rather than clash. Overall, I am excited about how this piece is coming along and I hope to accomplish a lot this weekend and going into next week.
