This is my landscape painting. I decided to paint this because last winter I went skiing with my family and at our hotel I took this picure one day from the balcony. It was a cool picture and I thought it would be nice to paint it. When doing this project I had alot of problems. I would sometimes mess up and try to do it again but it wouldent be as good, or sometimes I would just never be able to get it. I thought that doing the part of the landscape behind the front two mountains was hard because sometimes it would be hard to blend the paints on there. Also, we had to make our own colors with the 3 primary colors (blue, red, and yellow) by mixing them and lightening them or darkening them with black an white. so that was a new experience and Ii thougbt that after doing this painting project I gained more knowledge for mixing colors.
This is my clay tile project. For this project we took clay and flattened it and then we made a landscape or an animal that is partly 3D. I decided to make an elephant. Before I started to make this, i looked up pickture of elephants on google printed some of different angles ofthe face of an elephant. I then used those to base my clay elephant off of. When I first started to make this, the trunk and the face were too wide, so I continued to take off some layers to make it proportional and sometimes each side of the elephant didnt look exactly like the other side so it took a while. After I finished that, it was fired and i painted it. Overall I thought that I gained skill with making things with clay and I also thought that the paintig could have been better too. This here is my city made out of furnature. I used 2 point perspective in the picture as you can see there are 2 distant points that go iff the page. To make this drawing I used a drawing pencil, colored pencils and a ruler. I first used the drawing penicil to draw everything and then i used the colored pencils to color everything. I used the ruler to make the lines go with the 2 infinite point directions. From this project i learned how to draw things better in real life as the would look using perspective. At first, I thought of certain things to make a city out of and I thought that furnature would be the best choice because it seened cool and nobody else was doing it. So, i just thought of peices of furnature that could be used as buildings and for roads and stuff, and I used lamps for lights. I also thought that the sky could have been done a bit better and also the ground other than the hard wood flooring, roads, and sidewalk could have been better too. This is my print. It is called the duck. the only hard part about this project was when i had to use the gouge tool to carve into the lenolium. I accidentally carved too deep in parts which ended up causing my picture to not havr much texture. On the left part above the duck are lilly pads and there is also grass on the right of the duck. The easiest part of this printmaking project is when we had to do the actual print. This project was fun and cool. Also, these are the three best ones out of the four that i had to do.
Portrait of Justin the Magnificent
When drawing the portrait of my main man, Justin, the details were really challenging. In order to get the perfect values of Justin's face, i used some special blending techniques. These techniques were quite helpful in performing this challenging face. The most challenging feature on this face was the nose due to the amount values on it. Another challenging part of Justin was his ears. I have always been bad at drawing ears but this was quite possibly the hardest one i have ever done. The final product for this task turned out to look similar in some categories and completely WRONG in others. This was my cartoon skeleton drawing. I took a cartoon character and drew its skeletal structure inside its body. It was pretty easy. This was the best one. Also, as you can see scooby doo is in one of the pictures. I drew scooby doo.
This was my modified contour drawing. I was allowed this time to look at what i was drawing on the paper and also what position my hand was in. So, it was easier to draw this one than the blind contour. This was my best one. This was my blind contour drawing. I wasnt allowed to look at my drawing while drawing it. I was only allowed to look at my hand and its position. Whenbi thought i was done i was allowed to look at it. It was pretty hard. This was my best one. This is my hand alligator. I put my hand in a position and i made it into an alligator. It was pretty hard. I had to draw the hand position first then i just filled it in and finished picture with colors to make it an alligator. |
