Peer Sketching

The above picture is a sketch done by Ashley Bennett.  When I first started flipping through her sketchbook, I thought I would pick the drawing that initially struck me most.  However, it is also important to look at ways that an artist tries to challenge his/herself by choosing a difficult subject matter.  I appreciate the glass above because, the artist has struggled with its portrayal and through that, it has more character and honesty as a work. 

Above is a sketch of Beckie Yohn's wood sculpture.  I enjoyed the simple contrasting color dynamic that was created through the shape of the piece.
