My overall thought about this assignment is that it was very unique. I was excited to be able to do it myself considering that I've seen many other ones on display around the school in previous years. I was disappointed that we weren't supposed to shade yet, but I still enjoyed it. I feel that I was successful with this assignment; I really enjoyed being complimented on it by another student in my class. I didn't have trouble drawing the outline of the original can, but I did have some trouble with the little details and all of the extra lines on the crushed one. If i were to redo this project, I would try to make the glue less sloppy and be more careful about the little lines on the crushed can. It took me a really long time to complete the letters on the pre-crushed can because I was trying to make it perfect and I was very tense while doing it. This piece taught me that I cannot draw a pop can without a visual aid. I also learned that I would have struggled with it more if it weren't for the instructions and advice given to me about it before I started. I enjoyed this piece very much.
