Collaborative drawing

I did not enjoy this assignment. When I started I already thought that my picture was fairly good, definitely not prefect, but good. And the first person said they thought it was good and was only making little edits. By the time I had gotten to it it looked like someone had moved my art stand and was two feet taller then I was. I had to fix some things and I had still not fixed everything that I would have liked to. When somebody edited mine, It looked like the trash-bin was floating at the wrong side of the page and the chair had been turned. The two drawings that I edited were hard to do because they were already dark and I had a hard time erasing them, and that was the case with the mistakes that I had to fix on my drawing. I feel like if I had worked on mine the whole time it would have turned out much better, because it seemed like most people were happy with the angles of their drawings when they went back to them and immediately started shading, but I spent most of the time fixing mistakes and had very little time for shading, I think that If I had more time then I would have had a better end result.

When I went to a new drawing I looked at the object for a while just to get the idea of what they were seeing and changed placement and angles of objects.

Pre Assessment

Which picture was more natural to draw?

That is hard to say. I was only able to draw a little of the observation drawing because I was drawing as much detail in one thing before I moved to the next one. I was only able to finish one object. For the Imagination drawing I was a little rushed and couldn't do all the shadows and shapes that I wanted. If I had more time I would have enjoyed the imagination drawing more then I did but it was still my favorite.
