Print Sketch Critique

 1. Why is texture so important to have in your sketches?

 Texture is important to have in this sketch because you need to  show the details of the animal to make it look real. The texture is also important to have because you need to have the animal stand out form the background. Also texture is important to have a realistic look to the animal.

 

2. Why is it necessary for you to have several references of each animal and each background? Explain.
Its good to have different references fo ou can combind all of the refereces to have one good animal. The same goes for the background so your can have the best picture. Also if you like one thing in one references you can add it to your own drawing.

3. When you look at your sketches are you able to see which sketch is the strongest and will make the best print? How do you know this? 
Yes I think that my seal is my beat drawing. I think that its the best because it has the best contrast in the drawing. Also the most texture in the animal with a little in the background.
