For this project we drew 2 sketches first. Then we chose the one wanted to make on the clay tile. I then started to make my bird, nest, tree, and branches. I then added texture. After that we fired it. Then I painted the clay tile, then fired it again.
On this project we painted a canvas. First I did a practice sketch of the picture I brought in. Then a painted a base color on my canvas, I used orange. Then I put blue for the sky and then green. Then I added detail and value. In this project we did perspective. We had to first right down a list of cities. We then choose whether to draw in 1 or 2 point perspective. I choose two point perspective. My city was an ape product city. Two clock towers and iPhones and a MacBook. The road was a keyboard. I thought this project was really interesting. In this project we drew to animal and background designs. Once I finished my drawing I made frames. Which I traced what I wanted for my print. After that I traced it and put it onto my linoleum. Which I then cut out with a tool, then I put paint on it and pressed it onto the paper 4 times and then I had my prints. This was a fun project. In this project we drew 8 different thumbnails. Then we did two final drafts, which we then had to choose which one to use. After choose which one to use we traced it onto wax paper. After that we traced it onto black paper. Then I cut out the parts that were supposed to be white. Then finally glued the black parts onto the white piece of paper. Overall the project was pretty long but it was intresting. In this project we did textures. We went around campus looking for textures. Which we would use charcoal to replicate. We had to get 10 different sketches from around campus. When we got back to class we had to try and replicate the charcoals with pencils, which were pretty hard to replicate. In this project we were given crumpled up paper bags that we had to draw. We had to draw one with pencil and one with charcoal. We had to shade the creases and edges to make it look 3d. It was pretty hard to do In this project we picked out two cartoons. After this we traced our cartoons onto wax paper. Then we drew bones in the cartoon where we thought they would be and look like. After we were done with two drafts we decided which one we like better and re-drew it in our sketchbook for our final draft. On this project we drew shoes. We took of our shoes and drew them. First I drew the details to the outline on the bottom, then to the top of the shoe. Once I finished that part I drew the laces and the outline to them. Then I finished the detail on the side of the shoe. In my opinion this was a harder project because I'm not that good at drawing shoes and this was my first contour line project. But it was an intresting expierence. In this project we used pastels to shade. We always used black and white, and you would choose three others. One would be your light, the second one would be your medium, and your third would be your dark. After we choose our colors we practiced shading over different colors by shading one of the other several times. Once we got to the final project we put them on three different levels and shade the shapes in different colors. After we were done with shading the shapes we shaded the background in to two different colors that were different from each other.I opine that this project was bit more challenging than the previous shape project, but it looked better than shading with pencil. Overall it was an enjoyable experience. |
