Sketched Some of the Fruits We Have at Home... (Pencil Sketch)

in Sketchbook2 years ago



I usually have the chance to practice sketching or create something every night after work. I usually go to our dining table around a quarter to midnight to either sketch, paint or just do anything for an hour or couple hours.

Mama bought some fruits this morning and they looked really beautiful, so during lunch time I decided that I'm going to practice still life pencil sketch using the fruits that we have. Immediately after my last class, I went out with my sketchpad, pencils, erasers and all the other stuff I need. I then chose some fruits to draw and arranged them.

In addition, I took out my emergency light so I could cast brightness and more visible shadows for my shading practice. And this is how it went. :)

Well, it's still rough here and there, but I'm actually happy with the finished artwork. I still need more practice with the detailing and I need a better material for highlighting. The correction pen I used is quite messy, but it's tolerable for my ability. lol But really, I'm glad to be able to practice and continue to improve in this craft.

Now, let's see some of the progress shots I took while making this. :)

The banana was the most complicated to draw, while the apple was the easiest among all of them. Nevertheless, it was fun and I really enjoyed drawing them. Using some light to enhance the shadows of the actual subject really helped.

What should I draw next?? :) Of course, I'd still use other means of creating artwork like colored pencils, markers and watercolor. Any type of art is relaxing. It takes my mind off a bunch of things. I'll end my post here, though. My headache is getting back... it temporarily disappeared when I was drawing. haha I have to catch up with sleep... hopefully, no insomnia tonight.

Until next time, friends!!! <3
