What's The Point

   I had a lot of ideas for "What's the point". One of my ideas was a geometric-type drawing and I came up with the idea of drawing cards.  I chose to do cards because I thought I could use different values and shading with this particular subject. I showed contrast by making the cards underneath darker and adding shadows. I also used contrast when identifying the black and red cards. The black cards are darker whereas the red cards are lighter. The medium I chose was pencil. I chose pencil because for my drawing, it had a lot of defined lines which I thought I could best draw with pencil.  For this drawing, I used different techniques.  I wanted to be sure that all the cards were equal in size, so I made a template for the shape of the cards. I also measured out and sectioned off the suits and numbers so I could make them even.   Some risks I took were I changed the scale of the card and I had to try and change the contents of the cards to scale. Also, in sort of a "spur of the moment" I took a chance when I decided to differentiate between the red and black cards.  The message I am conveying is how all the cards are the shape and I used the same method to create all of them even though they hold different values. So what's the point of discrimination if we're all part of the same deck of cards in life.
