The landscape assignment was fine. I took a trip out to Shelby Farms because I felt that it would be easy to find a good landscape out that way. I honestly didn't include all aspects that were in my composition such as certain trees and shade spots because I didn't know exactly how to get them down when drawing. I felt that if I had tried I would've messed up the entire drawing because ink is unforgiving. It was brought up during class that my drawing lacked value, which was true. This assignment has taught me that I should take more chances when it comes to my work. I was afraid to add all of the aspects that I saw in my composition because I felt that by doing so I would end up with a drawing that was unidentifiable. I do plan to re-work the assignment when I get it back and make improvements to the problems that were brought to my attention during the critique.
