My inspiration for this project came from Pinterest. I saw a lot of stormy sky pictures and I really liked them so I decided that is the landscape I want. Then I tried to think of a way to incorporate a hand, and I thought that the stormy sky represents danger and struggle, so I put a hand coming from the sky representing God's hand. I also decided to add a man reaching to the hand to show how people rely on God to protect us from all of the bad in the world.
To create the landscape I drew the shape of my hills, then did my trees. To draw my trees I drew the shape of them then I bleed them to make them look like actual trees, not scribbles. To blend I used a blending stick and I used a pencil to draw them. To shade my sky I took a sandpaper board and got graphite from a pencil and put the graphite on the top of the page. I blended it down to create a fading look with a paper towel. For my clouds I used a stretchy eraser to make the shape of my clouds and then shaded around and a little on the inside and blened with a blending stick. To shade my hand I just used a blending stick and made the edges darker. In this project I learned how to shade. I learned how to make trees, and how to fix my cloud if they end up looking like a fish. I also learned how to draw a silhouette of a person, and how to shade hills. I also learned how to make a stormy sky with graphite. In this project I also learned that hands aren't that scary. I could have probably shaded more in my sky. I also could have blended the edges of my cloud better.
