These sketches all use line to create the general shape of the face and shading to create form, emphasizing the features and giving a sort of texture. They have a sense of unity and harmony through the proportions, and while there is no color, the value of the shading gives the illusion of contrast. The faces seem blank, or straight faced, but they seem to be filled with determination.
These paintings, watercolors, express lines where the color ends, value in the shades of the colors, shape and form in their color, or lack of, and the contrast of the color compared to the paper. Color is presented through layers of color, also showing a sort of texture. There is an emphasis of color with shading and lighting, patterns in the strokes, and a sense of unity, harmony, proportion, and scale in the flow of the colors and the comparison of size between the apples and the leaves. While they are not the best paintings of leaves and apples, they were still painted to the best of their ability with hope and learning in mind.
These pieces are composed primarily of lines of different shades of grey to show value. Primarily, each shape is made 2D and combined together to make a 3D shape. The values of the lines give the illusion of space in the room. While there is no color, the different shades of grey give a general idea of the lightness or darkness of the colors of the objects. The different shades of the objects give each other contrast and differentiation, and while there is nothing physically moving, the objects seem to "lean" towards the viewpoints. The patterns in the shading show the direction the object stands or lays, emphasizing it. The proportions appear to be normal for the room, giving a sense of scale, unity, and harmony.
