1. For the tree in a landscape I referenced a picture that included a cherry blossom tree and a small cypress behind it along with a couple of bushes. The hardest part was translating the individual flowers into drawing, so instead I used a mass of shape to indicate the flowers.
2. For the animal I drew a koi because I was thinking about textures and scales came to mind. It seemed easy to create and would look somewhat complicated. I had a lot of fun pushing darks and pulling lights to make the scales glisten. I feel I like I could have taken it further. The lily pads above the fish indicate it’s in a pond, but I don’t think I took enough time shading to really make it pop from the fish. 3. The street scene was difficult for me because I couldn’t remember how to do one point perspective, but I sort of adapted by zooming the picture in close to the streets so you only see the fronts of all the buildings. Shading was hard in this picture. 4. The hand was also difficult, but for me it was not as difficult as the street scene. I referenced my closed fist, and at first it looked very disproportionate, but when I was shading I used a stylized stroke that was sort of sketchy, and by the end, it looked kinda like a hand.
