Voices of Art – CCSF Art 130A Final Project
From The Artist “Where are you from?” Whenever I travel, I get this question. I’m from San Francisco! Simple, right? “But where are your parents from, originally?” China and Vietnam?

This is the second big still life we’ve done for Art130A intro to drawing. The first one was drawing balls and round objects. Now we’ve upgraded to flat surfaces which is actually pretty hard because we have to find the little details in the fold.

Still Life of Round Shapes with Charcoal
This was my first experience using charcoal to draw real object. We spent about three 3-hour in-class sessions drawing some round shapes and I think it turned out pretty well! The process involved lightly shading in the areas AROUND the objects. Since the objects are white, we actually had to fill in the shadows and…
