My attempt before the Demo

My attempt to draw the picture accurate
Martha Muniz
Good job! When overlaying, it seems all your major landmarks were very accurate. The differences occur in the smaller details--the curvature and angles of the eyes, nose, and lips. It can help to use your pencil or a similar tool like a stick to measure out the angle on the reference and copy it down the page to use a guide. It can also help to periodically cross reference the placement of an area with a second landmark (e.g. if you placed the lip based on the eye placement, cross-reference with brow). It appears that the placement of the pupil + top of the eye was out of place, which affected the length of the lips, and in turn the width of the nose. Having a cross-reference, especially when you feel like something isn't quite right, will help catch deviations early on.

Self critique: my cast shadow looks quite not right.

Also, where did you find that image you copied off of.

How do you put art on the chat?

Fabulous. I think it may need a little more value transitions....what do you think? Some light is hitting the stem. Perhaps a little darker right where the pear is touching the table in the shadow. I'm no expert...
