PRINT M A K I N G IS F U N

For my two wonderful peices of art, wolfee III and saytin wolff. My prints show texture and contrast by how i put lines on the back of the wolf to show fur and how i made diagonal lines to show the back round. I made the positive space the furr on the wolf and also the backround lines. The negative wwas the other parts of the wolf and surroundings. I would say that the project is averagely crafted. It looks nice but definately not nice enough to be sold or called a "masterpiece". I believe i showed a bit of depth by adding the lines in the backround other wise the picture doest not depict much depth. with print makeing the obstacle was when i printed it down the picture was mirrored and it looked much different than the original. the good side was that i didnt have to individually paint each line because the printing paint took care of it at once.

Chalkkkk muralllls

This project was very different then what i usually do in art--single person projects--but with this project I was able to work in a team and it was actually quite fun. We all did something to contribute to the mural, wheter it was drawing bushes or shading a questionmark or even doing the best we could to make sure the pipe wasnt a complete disaster. The green pipe was the hardest to do in this picture because there was an inconvienience of no green chalk after we had started it.
It is very important to collaborate and communicate with youre teammates because otherwise you would have totally different ideas on the project. Like us, we all communicated and decided on one idea and what elements would be in it. So it worked out pretty well
This project was an okay succesful project but there wasnt enough chalk and almost a week later half of our mural is already gone. We also wanted to put a blue sky behind it but we didnt have enough chalk or time. it did turn out basicaly how we wanted it though.
It makes me feel good when i see people taking pictures with my artwork because that means it was good enough to have them modeled in it. The whole school has a chance to take pictures with any mural they want which i think is a pretty good feeling.

The value drawing

Well i traced on the photo of his face and drawing all the different light shapes that there were. Then i transfered the rough copy of it onto my sketchbook paper this is where i started shading in the darker shapes and also making it not obvious that shapes were there. It was pretty hard to shade his chin area and his forhead for some reason. I then used a charcoal stick to color in his hair and to give it a complete and dark effect. i probably could have worked on this picturea  bit more though.

Painting with moss?

Mr.Sands made moss with this special formula and it smelled pretty gross. although it looked worse. it was fun to paint with though because it made it a little harder because you had to keep dipping the paintbrush because it ran out of moss a lot.

These were the ingredients he used in making the moss we painted with. and mr sans made it very clear not to eat buttermilk  because its not made to be food. and it smelled really bad

the face i painted. I thought it actually didnt look very
good but i could have spent more time on it.The project worked pretty well with having the moss but the moss didnt grow and it eventually came off during the rain. If we were doing the project over again i would consider doing it in an easier acces place with a bigger wall and alot more moss. I learned that you can paint or color with any thing. and it doesnt have to be paint.

we were all painting on the wall but i think it washed away in the storm.

SKeLetOns




This is the skeleton of the famous nintendo character Mario who is in like every game. As you can see he has bones in his mustache, eyebrows and ears. Marios hands are indeed bigger than his feet because he tends to use them more often while driving, or punching characters in some of his video games.

 

This picture is mario, when he actually has flesh, eyes and clothes. Mario is actually itallian but you can easily tell by his mustache which believ it or not has bones in it. Mario has the classic overall jeans with giant shoes because his feet are rather big and his toes are pretty fat. This is actually a picture taken from the game mario super smash bros. 


I Think this peice turned out very good and i spent about the whole period on it anyway. I was erasing non stop and kept on drawing. I think this peice was pretty succesfull because i did work very hard on it. The most difficult part of this project for me was the hand (the left one). It had an awkward position and i had trouble doing the finger bones. I learned that can you be creative with whatever you do even when its supposed to look like something or be the human body skeleton.
