WatchamaDRAWit

The Subject of my artwork is a robot made only out of triangles squares ad circles. I made this by getting a random whatchamadrawit card and drawing what it tells me too. I then took a pencil and drew out a the robot using pencil and colored everything in with colored pencil and adding extra shapes on the arms and robot itself with pencil and color pencil. I then filled in the background with a light tint of orange to fill in the negative space.

Some composition rules and techniques I used in my artwork were, informal balance as you can see the arms filled in the empty space instead of keeping the center of the robot in the middle but still adding style to make it look nice. Also I used rule of thirds to have the two less-main parts in the 1/3 and 3/3 section and the main part of the tree in the 2/3 section. My project evolved from a small piece of paper to a way bigger and more in depth drawing on a bigger piece of paper.

The meaning behind this artwork is to branch out and try new things like drawing robots for example, because you never know if you are going to like it or not. I definitely would not choose to draw a robot if I had to, but this artwork made me branch out to different styles. My project relates to my life because I don't really like change and trying new things, but this year I'am challenging myself to try new things and take risks ike joining the tennis team even though I've never played, it might be fun so why not? Something that bothers me is the insides of the shading of the face because you can definitely see the strokes of the colored pencil but I used crayola colored pencils so what can you expect. I did the best I could.
