After the first lessons we started drawing. We chose a microscopic image of a blood cell in a clot to draw.
This is the original image:
How I drew it:
What I made of my drawn image playing with scaling:
I copied my drawn image plenty times ar different scales and build a scaling pyramid with it. The bottom is the largest and the top the smallest copy of the blood cell.
I tried to use the small copies of the cells as a pattern and make something similar looking to a carpet or tapestry:

The fire spitting French Fry was drawn in the Mensa in Weimar while eating. The idea that stuck and will be reencountered in my final project is the shadow idea.
Where is the light source?
These are all of my sketches:
