Charlie, congratulations on the successful completion of your pumpkin drawing. Not only did you complete this assignment in style, you also added an extra twist with the context of the overall image. The landscape is visible through the window, but the background can suddenly be viewed as parts of a face if the viewer reads your drawing as the title suggests! You stayed calm and focused throughout each class and worked solidly until you reached the deadline for this project. Well done! You used your time wisely and have an accurately drawn, carefully shaded, and cleverly composed image to be proud of. This completed image together with evidence of your consistent working methods and ability to reflect on your work are all evidence of your developing artistic skills and use of each of the 'Studio Habits of Mind'. I look forward to seeing your next work of art for the 'Contrast and Camouflage' project!
