Your assignment is to take a real, physical vegetable you have brought with you to class, and produce a naturalistic rendering in graphite on paper. Keep in mind concepts of depth and value to make these come alive. The surface of a fruit of vegetable provides unfamiliar surfaces that will allow your right brain to render more accurately what is in front of you.
