My brain got stuck when I saw the words “free drawing,” “free writing,” and “free reading.” I had no idea what the teacher wanted me to draw.

This quarter of Life Drawing was my first real experience drawing the body from life or otherwise besides drawing fashion croquis. To say that any previous attempts to draw the body were unsuccessful would be a major understatement, so I was both excited for and dreading this class. During the first several weeks, I doubted that I would be able to even complete any of the projects- with or without time restrictions- and certainly not complete them to the standard that I am used to producing. Both

How dare the school policy tell me what to do, “No threatening of school members or staff.” I started drawing a gun. No, I started drawing a pistol. The exact pistol from the movies I watched called, “Terminator.” I then drew a bullet coming out of the pistol. This was called a projectile. Though I did make the bullet in a form called a parabola.

I thought this was an interesting feature of the painting that Picasso added since most of the drawings represented either chaos, despair, or pain but this tiny little flower above the soldier’s severed arm is a subtle symbol of hope. Although the flower is very faint, it is very significant and symbolizes the possibility that there is hope in the
