This mini project was focused more on getting us familiar with chalk pastels and how to blend them together. The idea was to use an arrangement of eggs on a table and shade them according to the dramatic lighting we created. Instead of doing the typical arrangement, I decided to draw two eggs cracked and nested inside of each other because I liked that composition better. Capturing the perspective and details was hard to do, but the end result looks solid to me. I wish I had taken a step back from the piece while it was in progress so I could have seen how oddly the bottom pink section is shaped, as I would have rounded it out more. I'm incredibly proud of the blending, especially in the bottom half of the blue egg. If I were to do this again, I would try to find a way to make the table look more convincing.
