RISD CE: Drawing Fundamentals I; Final Assignment

Still Life With A Meaning

I used a HB pencil and blending stick for this drawing. The reason why I chose these objects is mostly because of the places they are related to, and those places have a stronger meaning to me than the items themselves:

• A bottle with a Croatian motive on it - The reason I chose this object is because I am originally from Croatia and wanted to have something related to home on my drawing.

• New York City poster - I lived in the NYC area for one year while participating in the cultural exchange program.

• A souvenir of the Television Tower - This is one of Stuttgart’s best-known landmarks. And Stuttgart is a place in Germany where I am currently living.

• Tulips in the vase - They are not to some place related, but I have liked tulips my whole life, and that's why I decided to add them to my drawing.
