I have a love hate relationship with this piece. I really like the red gum ball machine. However, i hate the blue one. The shading on the red machine (both the base and the actual gum balls) looks very smooth and accurate. I also really like the placement of the highlights and the classic color scheme. The blue machine is the exact opposite. I am not a big fan of the color scheme and the proportions are very off. The bottom part of the machine only holds four gum balls verses the red machine which holds more than six. The actual globe part isn't very circular and the highlights are placed weirdly. However, i do like the shading on the base. Overall, if the blue machine didn't exist i would really like this piece.
I quite like how this drawing turned out. Originally i was not a fan, but after i went in and added the highlights on the candies i ended up liking it a lot more. I really like the ends of the wrappers. I think i did a good job showing the different values and making the wrapper seem transparent. However, the random bump in the candies makes me laugh. I should have been more careful when drawing the line. The drawing would have looked much better if the line had been straight. This was my fifth time working with Prismas and as usual i loved it. I really like the outcome. My use of pinks and purples to create the shading adds an interesting touch. The colors complimented the blue from the raspberries nicely. I think i did a good job showing the different values in the creases and folds. Overall, i really like how this turned out.
I really enjoyed making this piece. I liked working with the chalk pastels, for the most part. The one thing that really bothered me was the yellow pastel. No mater what i did it would always end up fuzzy and not smooth. The blues and greens were very easy to get a smooth effect with, which i really loved. I just wish the yellow was like that too. In general, i think i did a good job showing value and the shadows. I also really like my color scheme. The yellow, greens, and blues go nicely together.
