Shadow Shapes

In my Ani 112a class we are now starting to work on shadow shapes! I'm really excited about this because I always wanted to be more confident in pen/marker and shadow shapes is one step to inking! This was our homework assignment and I was really trying to observe the shapes of the shadows rather than trying to draw my face. The method of squinting helped A LOT considering I only had black and white to work with. Squinting helped me eliminate all the other values inbetween. The blackness in the picture is my scanner I am just too lazy to crop it sooooooooooo ENJOY!
