Value- The lightness or darkness of a color Composition- The placement or organization of visual elements
Pros or Charcoal- Charcoal is super easy to blend because it is really loose. The ability to easily layer allows you to add shadows and highlights. Another pro of charcoal is that if you make a mistake, you can simply wipe it away with a paper towel. Cons on Charcoal- Using charcoal does not at all help to add details in my opinion beause it is so dense. Charcoal is really, really messy and you are bound to smear it and get it all over your workspace and your hands. If you are like me and like to stay clean, charcoal is not for you... Pros of Pen- When using pen, because of the amount of detail you can do the drawings often turn out looking very photorealistic. You can easily put in extremely tiny details that you would be able to put in using pencil or charcoal. You can also easily add shadow by simply making the pen thicker in certain spots and you can add highlight by making the pen thinner. Cons of Pen- If you are looking to make a quick sketch, pen it not the tool to do it with, especially if you are doing stippling. It is extremely time consuming. The spheres were definitely the most helpful, the helped me with my blending and layering techniques. While some of the different things we used to draw the spheres with were a little bit harder to blend, especially the colored pencils, but the techniques were very helpful in making my drawings better.
