Goals for the Semester
My main goal in any art class is to improve. Specifically, I would like to improve with acrylics and drawing from life. Our last project for drawing and painting was an acrylic painting and I would like to use them more and get better with them. Our portraits were made from looking in a mirror which was really fun but challenging. I would love to do that more and maybe be able to draw people or other things from real life.
I think a really fun small project or maybe homework assignment would be to do a sort of collage layering type of thing. I have done this before where I drew a bunch of things for a picture and glued them on one piece of paper on top of each other and it was super interesting.
For smaller things, I will work at my desk, my bed, occasionally my floor, but for larger assignments I work at my dining room table. My desk is a little cluttered so I will usually opt for my floor because I like to work at a cleaner space. My ideal conditions would be a low stress environment and maybe with some music or background noise.
