For the candy drawing assignment with oil/chalk pastels I chose a green jolly rancher and a mystery flavor Dum-Dum. I have had little to no experience with pastels, so this assignment was rather difficult to me. Once I finished the jolly rancher I learned some of the techniques that you need to use when using the pastels. The main challenge of the jolly rancher drawing was getting the wrapper to show up just right and the shading in the actual candy.

For the Dum-Dum assignment I chose the mystery flavor. I felt better about this since I had practice with the jolly rancher. I feel the shading on the wrapper was a ton better than that of the jolly rancher. The colors felt just right and the proportions of the stick and the "pop" were pretty accurate. The only challenge I found was the precision in the lettering and pictures on the wrapper.
