Media: Charcoal, Prismacolor

The Project:

This was my Rodeo art project. I took a picture of a real saddle and a real fence and put them together. I used the charcoal techniques we had learned before to add in values and make the saddle look real.

Media: Prismacolors, Pen, Highlighter, Collage (Construction paper), Sharpie

The Project:

This was made with many different steps to it. First, we drew random still-lifes without looking at them. We used different drawing techniques like collage and continuous line in the project. Then, we were let loose to make it how we wanted. I added more hands and colorful circles to make the artwork more interesting and put-together.

Media: Prismacolors

Goal For the Project:

This was our first colored pencil project. I learned a lot in this project because I had never really worked with colored pencils before. We also worked with different color schemes and blending techniques. The artwork shows differently sized beads and ribbons, all drawn from real life.

Media: Graphite Pencils (2H, HB, 2B, 4B, 6B)

Goal For the Project:

This was one of my favorite projects. I learned the most during this unit. We worked with graphite pencils, which I had never worked with before. We worked on blending techniques and really focused on values, especially since it was a still life.
