Going to an Art Class

I love drawing, so today I went to an art class where people draw pictures using a lot of different techniques. Some beginners were using markers while the really advanced people were doing acrylic. I was to good for the beginners but I couldn't draw as good as the advanced people so I ended up drawing and shading 3-D figures.

Since I just started I wasn't going to do really hard things such as tables, chairs or even bottles. I had to chose something easy like drawing 3-D figures. I drew a picture with a cube, cylinder and a pyramid. They looked really easy but they were actually really hard. You had to master the hand position, shading detail and shape rotation.  The teachers helped me correct my hand position so I could shade better and make the shapes look more straight.

Finally after I finished drawing the outline of the shapes I had to start shading.  There were so many pencils to chose from. Some of them were really light while others were really dark. I used B and 2B because those pencils were the exact darkness of  the picture. You have to shade in one direction so you don't make the shading look messy. After I shaded my picture it looked pretty good with darkness on one side and light on the other side.
