Mid-Term Prompt

In class, we had to come up with an idea during our midterm about how we could use these pre made circles to make art. It took me a little bit of time to come up with an idea and then I settled on making different cans through out time. I made several different themes for each. I then filled in the middle with blue to act as the plastic carrier you get when you buy a pack of soda.

This project I decided to use colored pencils since I had not used them for most of the year and sharpie to highlight parts of my work. I tried hard to drive deep with my color but it was hard because the paper was really ridged. I used ink on the outside of the cans so that it looked more solid because the ink sank better in the paper.

My favorite part of this project was designing all the different cans. The hard part was that it was really hard to push color which caused there to be a bunch of white spots which I then tried to fill in with ink.
