Intro to Studio Art
Hand Drawing
During this lesson of hand drawing some techniques that we used were lines and shading. These were very useful because most of this drawing was lines and shading which was very useful. One of my goals for this project was to make it look decent and I achieved my goal because I think it looks great. My least favorite part about this project is that some of the shading doesn't work look the best but I think with a bit more of practice it can look even better.
Bug Painting
Some of the techniques that we used in this project was blending the paints and different textures of paint to make it look real. One of my least favorite part of this painting is that to me it doesn't look real but that was not what we were aiming for so it is fine. my favorite part of this project is that I got to change the colors but of the bug to what I liked.
Jar
My favorite part about this project was glazing it but I ended up hating how it turned out and that is fine. I will just give it to my sister. The shape of the jar is something. I made a nothing jar because I thought that it would be easier and it was. I just don't love it. I wish I took a little more time on this project.
Clay Whistle
I did a rubber duckie for this project and was determined to make it look better than what my jar looked like. Building this duck was my favorite part of this project. But glazing it was a little stressful because I got black on some parts of it and didn't want it to show. In the end I just scarped it off and that worked great.
Clay Bowl
This project was very fun. I really enjoyed making the bowl. I do not like the color of my bowl at all and I think that it ruined it. I don't like how uneven it is. But I still the design of it. I also love that it has a like little holes in it.
Underwatercolor
My underwater water coloring is a project that I worked very hard on to get the water color to my liking. I used the method for colors where they are all by each other on the color wheel. This project was hard for me because I had kept painting when I should have stopped but it turned out pretty good. I also added some highlights with the white pen. I also love that it has like freckles. Also one fun fact about this painting is that I named it Wilbur, yes it has a name.
PrintMaking
My printmaking I chose to do a cute little bird. I really enjoyed this project but I enjoyed the printing of it and not so much the carving out the bird. I messed up a few times one the carving which lead me to not liking it as much. This is one of my favorites prints because I really like the color combination. I like how chubby and little the bird is but overall I enjoyed this project.
Spot the Difference
In this project I changed five different things on this photo of the Darling. I didn't really enjoy this project because we have to use our chrome books a lot in school. When I went to art I just didn't want to be on my Chromebook. But I loved how it turned out. We had to do a lot of editing in this project and I have never edited anything in my life so for this to turn out pretty good was a big surprise to me.
Box
I made this box out of foam and glue. I also did this craving out the metal with my name. This is probably my favorite project we have done this year. I really love how it turned out. This project wasn't the funniest thing to do but I loved how it ended up. I also really like the design of the paper part with really pulled the box together. The only thing that I didn't really like about this project was that the building was boring.
