bee & skull drawings

buzz buzz amiright

i'm doing ap studio art this year and we have a summer assignment to pick an object and draw it four different times w/ different mediums and stuff like that. honestly, it took my like 5 weeks to even start this project & i'm having a hard time figuring out what i really want to do.

i don't even know if i'm doing it right, like, i'm not sure if i'm supposed to actually have a real object that i can hold and stuff or if i just need to choose a theme and do that with different interpretations.

i think i'm also going to choose a succulent and try to do that in a more realistic way and see if i like that better.

also, i'm trying to do more art thats original. i always use references and include every little detail and make them identical but i'm trying to get away from that. i'm trying man i'm really trying.

my theme i was going with (just in case the teacher asked why i chose to draw these) is the problem with bees and how they're endangered. if bees go extinct, humans pretty much do too. so, if you ever see a bee thats having a hard time or looks thirsty make sure to give them a little bit of sugar water and if they're in your house make sure you get them outside. plant bee friendly plants. be a bee friend.


supplies i used for the first picture was graphite and colored pencils & for the second i used watercolor and colored pencils for fine detailing.

hope you liked it!
