Two in One Pencil Drawing
I morphed a sunfish and a post-2013 penny because the shape of a sunfish is much like the shape of the shield on the tails side of a penny. I first drew a pair of concentric circles to create the outline of the penny and then fit the sunfish's outline in the same area that the shield would sit on an actual penny, but had the fins go outside of the penny's outline. After that, I put the words "United States of America" behind the sunfish and the banner with the words "one cent" in front of the sunfish to make the sunfish appear like it was on the penny yet was overlapping some parts of it to make it seem more surreal. I tried giving the penny flat shading and shaded the sunfish the way it looked on my reference. I think the most successful part of my drawing was the placement of all the parts of it and I would change the way I shaded it because the pencil smeared too much. I think I should have chosen a pen drawing as the medium for this picture because the way I shaded it with my pencil makes it look like it is unfinished in some parts and a pen would have given a more smooth texture to my drawing.
