Stencil Spray Paint

Spray Paint

We had to start by taking an up close picture of someone. Then that we had to use a peice of paper to trace which was hard to not have your hand get in the way of the projector. After that we used a knife to cut out the cardborad which was difficult to get the knife to go all the way through the paper. Following that we finally got to lay the stencil down and spray paint one layer at a time. After waiting I finished all four of the layers. The hardest part was cutting the paper so that it would peel off. If you went to fast the knife would not fully perice through the paper. The best part of the project was they spray painting because, painting is always fun and we also got to go outside. It was the most exiting/interesting project we had done all semester.

Shoe Drawing

The contour line drawing, my drawing was getting better because it taught me to take my time and focus on detail that is in drawing. My first attempt at drawing the shoe was not very good.  I practiced many a lot before I got it to actually look like a shoe.  I had to look at the first version of this shoe and then draw what I saw without picking up the pen or pencil I was using.  I had practiced this a lot in class by drawing hands flowers, sea shells and other objects.  Each object I drew was better than the other.  I was able to make the shoe. 

The 2nd Picture Post

There were many differences between the iPad sketch and the hand drawn sketch. Such as with the one on the iPad it was easier to blend the colors together because you didn't have to worry about pressure on the pencil. Also with the iPad you hand unlimited colors to chose from instead of 10. But there were many similarities in the fact that you still needed a background, you needed to blend the colors, and last you need the shapes to look 3-D. Technology is important in art because it helps you visualize what you are trying to do before you go it.

Skeleton Sketch Review

For my skeleton sketch we did in class a chose tweety bird from an old cartoon. I used this character because I felt it would not be to complicated but yet it would be fun, with all the different sized body parts than a human. Tweety Bird has a huge head and feet and a small neck and body. I thought it would be very interesting to draw the huge skull and feet so u could see the detail of the feet bones. I put the joints in the feet where a human would not normally, because of the fact the feet are so much bigger than anything else. I used the vertebrates in the neck just like a human, but instead I made them smaller to fit the shape of tweety's neck and the flow of the back. Then with tale I used a sketch of a dragons tale to use as an example to figure out how to draw it.
