Design and Space

Artist Statement

These drawings are my Designs and Shape pieces of artwork. I made these with mostly pencil besides the third photo because I went over it with Thin Sharpie and then added colored pencil. The reasoning behind the different colored pencils was because I was resembling the different colored leaves. The first drawing my Abstract Value Strip started with something abstract and then me shading over the square. The was NOT the assignment, I went back and revised! I made it so the square was more rich with shapes and designs to fill it (make darker). The composition of all of these photo is relatively interesting because they are all unique and different. These pieces could relate to my life and most people because they are negative space meaning you draw the Perimeter and not the Area. Negative Space relates to humans every day from the moment we wake up to the moment we go to bed, humans put on a "mask" it is our image, we care about what people think of us all the time because humans are always judging and analyzing. It is an involuntary action.
