Value Range Work:

For this task, I've created two pieces of work that present the uses of value ranges. For both illustrations, I have used the grayscale to choose which tone are suitable. For both illustrations, I've made the tones become lighter as they reach the background. 

My first piece of work presents a illustration of a cottage. I like this piece because I've applied the uses of tone, lighting and mark making. I believe that the uses of lighting and tone within this piece are effective because I've been able to create shadows on the side of the cottage. I think my illustration could of been improved even further by applying line work onto the grass to add texture. 

My second piece of work presents and illustration on some mountains. I like this piece of work because the scenery  has a mixture of tones yet the sky is one simple tone. I think this illustration is successful because the digital brush that I've used has given certain elements a traditional look. I believe that this piece could of been improved further by adding mark makings onto the grass and road. 

For both illustrations, I've made them digitally by using Photoshop. After applying the tones, I blended them together.
