Zoomed shoe

Artist Statement

The project that we did was drawing a shoe and zooming it.

The subject of my creation is my sneaker. I chose to make this specifically because I wanted my final to be colorful. The steps I went through in creating this project were drawing 3 views of my shoe, choosing a part of one of my views to zoom in on, making 3 zoomed images and then picking one to color and make my final. The materials used when I made this project were graphite and water color. I chose to compose my art this way because I wanted it to be colorful.

Some techniques I use while making my art sectioning my negative space and adding different colors to it you can see it behind the NIKE. At first my project was going to be the first zoomed view but it evolved and ended up the NIKE letters.

If I were to do this project again I would use tape to make sure the paint didn’t bleed everywhere instead of free handing it.
