In the second week of drawing, we focused on tone. Overall I was very disappointed with the outcomes I created within this session. I found it very difficult to achieve a wide depth of tone and translate the figure onto my page without using line. Near the end of the session, I started to understand the process more although, I still found it difficult to see what process where I needed to place the charcoal and how to make accurate proportions without mapping out the outline first. Practicing tone is definitely a skill I need a lot of practice on to improve my skills.
Tonal exercises I did after the session.

My name is Daizi Davies and I am 19 years old from Cardiff. I like to draw inspiration for my art from my personal life and the challenges I face day to day. I like to experiment with many different mediums but the common link that all my work has is that it is highly autobiographical. My main aim with anything I create is to tell a story and make whoever is viewing it feel something.
I am currently studying Fine Art at DeMontford University and I hope to grow as an artist as well as learn new things that will help me in my future as an artist.
