Shoe Drawing

The shoe drawing was another early project we did. I was wearing my TOMS the day we started the drawing and the canvas material they were made out of made my drawing appear softer like the shoes. While creating the shoes i started by arranging them so one was on top of the other, and they were pointing opposite directions. When creating my drawing i tried to add lots of value, showing how the inside of the shoes were much darker than the outside of the shoes. Also, we used some atmospheric perspective, making the shoe in the back appear softer and lighter than the shoe in the front. Also the shadows cast under the shoes on to the table show some value. The project was mostly about value though, with the lighter shoe in the back and the darker shoe in the front. It was also important the details on the shoes had value too like the top of the toe was lighter and worn in. Value was also shown with the shadows cast on the table and also on the shoes themselves.
