I had a lot of fun with this project, even though Chris kicked my ass, I held on for as long as I could. I hadn’t played chess since elementary school before this. At first, I didn’t understand the purpose of this project, but once we were assigned the Diebenkorn drawings, I understood the purpose. This project taught me how to create value with charcoal in a fun and entertaining way. I really learned a lot about the medium, and how to control it, and I was able to apply this knowledge when replicating the Diebenkorn drawing with Chris.
In the first photo, I’m listening to some pointers Bryan is giving me; notice how I have none of Chris’ pieces.
The second photo is the view from my side and the third photo is a spectators view. Chris drew the little chess man at the top. I’d really like to see Bryan and Chris play chess, I think it would be an interesting game.

Hey! That was a great game! You actually made some great moves, and I think that in another round, you’d probably kick my butt!
Had a great semester, and I hope to keep in touch!
