Draw a picture of an animal inside or on top of a lightbulb. Use reference pictures. Shade it with your pencil set. Try to include many different values of pencil (lights and darks) to create contrast. Keep those pencils sharp! Below are some examples.
For instance, I searched "black and white lightbulb photograph" and "black and white koala photograph" and then combined them. (see bottom pictures) You don't have to fill the whole page. You can draw a frame like I did to reduce the size.

Watch this video for some fascinating information on The Arnolfini Portrait. Note something in your sketchbook that you find of interest that you can share in class next week. (Save the last 4 pages in your sketchbook for the written parts of your homework assignments.)
