This is a graphite pencil drawing of a selection of vases and pots with flowers in-between them. The objects were arranged in such a way as to give it an implied line around the picture, when I look at it I start at the large vase, come down the right hand side across the flowers, around the small jar, down the drapes, back up towards the flowers, and finally the back to the vase we started with. Despite the table and drapes being the biggest thing your eye is drawn to what is on the table. There were a lot of shadows on the objects and table when I drew this, the vase especially had a lot of shadows and reflections making it quiet tricky to draw. The table cloth as well was difficult as it has a lot of folds and creases. I think the dark sections of the cloth when contrasted with the lighter parts really helps show the shape of it as well as making my objects stand out more. This was one of the first drawings I did with a graphite stick and as such it is not as good as it could have been, I had great trouble with the flowers as I’m not that good at drawing flowers anyway never mind with a material I’m not used to.
