Drawing Unit

Value is the element of design that defines the light and dark of an artwork
Composition is how things are set up in the work of art

The most helpful warmup for me was the value scales so I could learn about light and dark that I used in all my works.

Pencil
Pros- erasable, many shades, easy to blend
Cons- smears easily, harder to get good value
Pen
Pros- can have very dark values, easy to add texture, doesn't smear
Cons- can't be erased, can't blend at all
Charcoal 
Pros- erasable in a sense, easy to blend good value
Cons- smears a lot, stains skin very easily
