Painting



If I were in the place I painted, it would be very hot and sunny.  It would hear the birds flying above. I would feel the sand in my face in the wind.  I would see camels in the desert and maybe an oasis on the other side of a dune.

Flowers in Illustrator

These are the flowers I made in Adobe Illustrator.  I like how i put two distort stars on top of each other to make it look more like a flower.

iPad and Clay Sculptures

 I felt this is probably my best project in this class so far.  My fish looking monster has good looking eyes and my clay sculpture looks very close to my iPad sculpture.  I think I could have had more details on my sculptures and had it more exciting.  The hardest part pf this project was actually making it on the iPad, because it was a new program that I had to learn to use.

Zentangle


 I feel like this zentangle project was an overall success.  We were able to fill up a big space and make it look good.  At first we weren't able to tie the whole picture together, but at the end we did it.  If we did this project again, I think the picture could be pulled together better and planned out from the beginning.  The hardest part of this project was not getting paint on our clothes and to be able to have constant lines.  The paintbrush didn't keep the paint on the brush very well and the brushes were so wide so there was no small details able to be done.

Reflection from first quarter

This is my most successful piece of art.  I  feel like this is my most successful artwork, because I took my time and I like the background.  Even though I only did one stencil, I had two different colors for the background.  I also like the white border that I made out of wood.  I think I'm going to hang this piece of art on my wall.
This is the piece of art that I learned the most from.  I learned that it takes good teamwork to reach a goal.  My group did not coordinate very well, and there was no real team leader.  We ended up throwing up random stuff and it ended up almost looking like a UFO terrorizing a city.  We could have also planned out what we wanted to make, and then tried to make that.

Giraffe Prints

This is my prints of a giraffe.  I feel like my actual pad that I used to make the prints, was pretty good.  On the other hand, I don't think my actual prints look very well.  This is probably because I used too much paint on the pad.  I like the spots on the giraffe, but i don't think the trees worked very well next to the giraffe.  I think that if I had a chance to do this over again, I would be more careful, applying the paint to the pad.  Through this project, I learned that I need to take my time, and be more careful as to what I am doing.
