Building with ellipses

I used charcoal pencil to create this drawing and I used my fingers to smudge the charcoal to make this figure look 3D. I think this is creative and different from anything else because it is very dark and black. 

Single Line Portrait

I creatively used two different pieces of paper by using the longer horizontal one for my legs  because I was sitting down and I used the taller, vertical one for my upper body and head because Im taller. Although you can not see my shoulders or some of my arm in this drawing i think that is creative as well by leaving some parts of my body out. I tried my hardest to use the continuous line drawing technique although i was not successful I think I have gotten better at it. It was hard for me to not want to pick up my pencil because I like sketching rather than using bold straight lines and it was a force of habit  to pick up my pencil and move to a different spot when I got bored. If I were to do this drawing again I would try harder to use the technique of the continuous line and I also would try looking at myself in a mirro instead of the ipad. I would also try sitting in a different position to make it a little more challenging for myself. 

Folded paper drawing

I used my pencil to shade certain areas of the drawing to make it look 3D. I also used light and dark values to show the shadow underneath the paper airplane to make the object appear like it is sitting on a table or surface and not just floating in the air. I think my drawing shows understanding of composition because it isn't directly in the middle of the page because that would be boring, and I also drew it at a diagonal from top left to bottom right, the way our eyes would read a page on a book. I think that my drawing shows a little bit of my personal drawing style because I like drawing big and I like drawing soft and neatly.
