peanut project

I was surprised by how strangely shaped so many of the peanuts were. I thought all peanuts looked the same but now I think there are probably more freak peanuts than regularly shaped ones. I liked that we did a number of drawings and tried to experience the peanut with multiple senses. It reminded me of blind contour drawing, where you look at the object and draw without looking at the paper or taking your eyes off of the object. Also, after spending so much time constructing an idea of what this peanut's life is like, you get a little attached.
