1. My goals and intentions for this project were to learn how to draw and shade realistically.
2. I accomplished my goals by learn how to shade properly and blend the charcoal better.
3. My painting is about dramatic shadows and smoothness of the shading.
4. The most difficult challenge I faced was learning how to shade the creases of the lines on the pumpkin.
5. I met that challenge by blending the lines and using highlights.
6. My painting really works with the skull and how the shading of the skull adds dimension.
7. Somethings that I have learned that I can bring to into my next painting is how to shade and add dimension. 
8. The mentor that I can name that helped me were the Wyatts and how to blend and make my painting realistic looking.
9. Another artist that I learned from was Ashley wmake the background as hoe to make my pumpkins look round and add to the dramatic lighting.
10. If I had a do-over, I would make the background pumpkin smaller.
11. I feel best about my skull and the pumpkin between the bird and the skull.
