After another class session on ellipses (How hard can they be? hahaha), I came home and later sketched this small white pitcher.

I bought this pitcher Sunday afternoon. I thought it would present a challenge for me to sketch and, yes, it did.

Nice shape

All my time spent on ellipses was in preparation to sketch the starfish. The point of all this was to learn about foreshortening. I’m ready to revisit the tone course in my next class.
