Next Project - Books and stuff

So this is my next drawing exercise. It's a picture with books, a lamp, sheet music etc. I'm posting what I have so far because it's going to take me a while to finish it. 

The interesting thing (one of many) that I've learned through this class is that you never forsake the rules. The picture that you're copying may have a shadow on a certain part of it, but if it doesn't fall into the rules of drawing you don't draw it. So with this picture I outlined all the objects in the given picture, but from there I don't really need to look at the picture. I just follow the rules of shading.
