Assignment #5 Susanne

Here is my final assignment for our Christmas Theme. Originally I was contemplating on drawing a moose but I had this stuffed bear holding a present that captured my attention. I took it upon myself to challenge my skills on drawing from life. I am still grappling with fitting a design on a page as I originally wanted the word "Christmas to be towards our right. Generally speaking I tend to draw larger thus had to squish the word onto our left. I personally find that I should have changed the colour of the box the bear is holding to give more contrast or perhaps his ribbon. It was a good challenge to see the values and colours from life.
