The slave trade triangle

They travel from Europe to Africa then Africa to Caribbean. Then they travel the same way over and over again. They travel in ships full of slaves to trade for guns,drinks,cloth,tobacco. The slaves come from Africa. A man was once there and told them he would return, once he return most his people were dead because of the chiefs that were in Africa. Once the man had killed him he took his people to be slaves to trade for goods. He had all he wanted but the poor African people were slaves to over 300-500 years. There work for the white people and who ever is trading for them they get everything they need.

term one art

This year in art we are learning how to shade different shapes, we watched a video of different shadings and how to use rulers for shading. We had a choice to start with a cube circle or triangle. I started doing the circle because I thought it would be easier to do. I went from dark to light to make it look more better. Then I had to do the shadow of the circle so I just made it look light because shadows aren't as dark.

my work 

How i can improve
I think i should have shaded the shadow a bit darker or use the shading for the circle to make it look like a real shadow. 

What I should work on 
I think I should have focused more on the way the circle looked instead of the shading. I think it would have looked better if i did it with more shading.
