These are Drawing Projects

Hello to the people out there who read this blog (which is probably closer to one than two). I've been in a drawing class this semester, and I haven't posted any of my works because I didn't want to post them until they were finished. What I have learned this semester is that they will never be finished. Art works are always a work in progress, and they always have something that could be added or improved. I'm satisfied with some of my works this semester, and although none of them are perfect, they come pretty dang close.

This is a blind contour collage. I drew all of the elements in this collage without looking at my paper as I was drawing, then collaged them together. I like the composition of this piece, but the "cloud of ideas" part of the drawing was lost when I took the picture because the drawings aren't bold. If I was to continue working on this piece, I would make the elements other than the girl at the bottom more bold
This is a still life. It is a line drawing, so no value here. I had to use lines to show the contours of the objects as well as the shadows. 
This is a drawn collage. I cut out all the images from magazines, collaged them, and then drew the collage in gray scale. This is my favorite piece so far. 
This is an isometric design. I drew a grid that was based on 30 degree triangles, and then drew these shapes on the grid. The result is that all these shapes seem to be in a three-dimensional space. I used bold colors to make it fun and kind of trippy looking. 

More projects to come, I can guarantee it.
