Comparison of Bike drawing and Candy Confection

My two drawing are very different from one another. The graphite bicycle drawing used charcoal pencils and shading was the main source of color. The only color used was gray, but I used varying shades such as light gray, charcoal, and dark black-gray by using pressure on the pencil while shading. On the other hand, my candy jar drawing uses transparency with the light in the glass and i shaded the sketches using creamy colored pencils. I used varying shades of each color to achieve the maximum amount of realism in the pictures. Overall, I am proud of my two drawings and hope to become even better in future projects.
