Scrapbook Art

For this project we had to draw a slip of paper with a word from a pile. Then we had to do a scrap book page based on that word using differed mediums, stamps, and magazines. First my word was garden, but i switched with my friend. So the word that i ended up with was love. Pretty much I just cut out stiff that I love, but also hearts and the word love over and over again. I also used water colors, Sharpies, and tissue paper. this was how my final piece came out.

Sculpture Project

For this project we got to choose between wearable art or a sculpture project. I chose sculpture. Miss Sudkemp gave us options on what we wanted to do for our sculptures and I picked book carving. I took a book from the shelf and decided to carve a famous scene from one of my favorite movies, My Neighbor Totoro, the scene was when the two girl where standing at the bus stop with Totoro. First, I drew out a plan an then numbered the pages for the different layers for the scene. Next I cut out the different layers then when I got to the characters i just printed off a picture of them and glued them on to the page were they where needed.

Nature Art

For the nature at project I took smooth rocks from my house and then painted them to look like shoes I thought of this because I was in a group of girls called charms and we would go around and do fun stuff with each other like go to the beach, bake, and flower arranging to earn charms for our bracelets. So the main lady of the group made little gift bags for us and had little rock painted as shoes and we all got to take them home. After a few years the paint started to come off mine and I've wanted to remake them so that's why I decided to do I'd for my project.

Shibori Dyeing

The Shibori Dyeing artist I found was Michael Smith. Michael makes a profit of his ability to dye Shibori styles on cotton and silk. He lives and works in North Carolina and he has been making "wearable fiber art" for 25 years. He does a type of Shabori Dyeing called non-traditional Shibori. His style  clothing style is more of a gallery design not a retail design, because the patters and the styles of the clothes are really busy so its more like art and less like clothes. I really liked this artist, because they are one of the only people using a non-traditional style Shibori dyeing technique today and how he finds a way to pu beautiful art patterns on somthing other than a canvise.  


 These are some pictures of his art. they show the specific patterns of some and how other are supposed to look as clothes. I love how the light and dark colors contrast with each other. I also love how the patterns are so complex and if you cut them in half ether vertical or horizontal ways each side is symmetrical to the other. the cloth is so colorful an busy but at the same time very elegant and dressy.

Perspective

For this project we where supposed to make a perspective picture of ether something that fuels us, where I'm from, and who I am. We could ether use 1 point, 2 point, or 3 point perspective.

I chose one point perspective and the category what fuels me and drew/painted a refrigerator.

Art History

For our art history project we had two parts for the first part we had to make a video clip for a class music video portraying an art piece of our groups choice. In my group we did the picture "Cindy" by Robert Longo. In our clip I was Cindy and I did the these two poses. 

For the second part we just made a power point on what modernism is and what kind of art is in modernism.

Survival warm up

Portrait Project

For my portrait project I decided to use a picture that I took of myself at the beach up in main this past summer

My teacher said we can use any medium that we have learned so far so I chose water color, because it gives it a summery feel.

Print Project

For my printing project decided to make the Disney Land castle with the out line of Mickey Mouses head behind and over to the side. I chose this, because I really like Walt Disney he is one of my heroes because of his creativeness and fun personality. For this project we had to carve out our design on a linoleum block. after carving we would take the block and roll the ink of our choice on to it. then we would set it ink side first on to the paper press. When we took it off our design was would be printed in the colors that we chose. next if we had to print over the first one and cut out the parts we wanted to stay the first color. We had to print on six small papers and one large paper with four prints on it.

I thought it would be really cool if I didn't cut any thing out and print each one moved a little down and to the side so its slightly off and I divided to make mine a little more creative I added different colors and made one rainbow, two polka dot ,and the rest ombre.

I could only take pictures of five is the small papers, because my teacher took the sixth one for an art show/compitition.

Oscar the Creep (Meme Project)

Origami Project

Completed Color Project

Color Project in Progress

For this project I didn't really know what to do at first so I decided to go on Pinterest and look up color pencil drawings. I wanted to do something creative and clever and when I ran across this picture of a giraffe that is what I wanted to do.

I started drawing it in two different positions and couldn't decide which to use so I just did both.
(I also decided to make it a hipster giraffe)

Two-in-One Final

Two-in-One Project (In Progress)

For my two-in-one project I decided to combine a eye and a camera together. I thought this looked very cool, since an eye and a lens both are ways of capturing pictures, and they have the same shape.
I also kinda gives it kind of a mysterious feel. At first I was going to draw an eye and an orange then an eye and an apple, but it just didn't work out. I decided to use something that I really loved or something that relates to me, so I chose to draw a camera with a eye in the lens. When I figured out what I was drawing I went on to Pinterest and looked up camera drawings and found a drawn picture of a girl holding a camera.

This is the camera I used to base mine off of. After sketching I added the eye then some shutter blades that symbolism all the images eyes take in each day.

After incorporating a few more details like a small safety tether, and shading I was ready to start the final project which is where I am now.
