Artist create original work: I used a picture off of pinterest to use as a reference to draw my elephant and get ideas, i created my own flowers and am doing aztec prints with flowers instead of flowers and leaves like there artwork. After i finsih with my elephant i am going to put in a sunset in the background to show the environment and making it my own art. I did get inspiration from this piece, but i made it into my own piece of artwork. Artist take risk: I took risk by trying out colored pencils for the first time. I felt really unsure about it feeling as if i was not going to be good, but i did try and did my very best for my first time. I have now practiced and gotten much better at the colored pencils. Even though i did not do very good on my first try i still tried and did improve on my colored pencils skills. Artist develop art making skills:
I did the demo with colored pastels and was very confused on how to use the colors and then started messing around with the purples, blue and the white then saw how to create a transition from one color to another and blend them together. I saw the way each of the colors complemented each other and created dimensions and how to shade without looking too dark or too light giving a 3D effect. Artist create original:
I did my man and machine and came up with the idea of it on my own. I looked up pictures on pinterest to get ideas, by looking at some pictures i found what i wanted to do. Even though i got ideas from the internet i made it my own. Artist develop art making skills: When i was doing my rough draft i did not know how to look at the shading and where the light hit on certain things. I asked Mrs.Barnett and she helped me see where the light hit certain parts on my drawing. I learned how to see the different ways light hit things and how to shade them. |
