Develop art skills. 

Spheres and value 

During the warm ups I learned a couple new art skills, like how to use value to show how an objects depth or shadows. I also learned everything has proportions and creating the correct proportion can make it look very realistic. It can also be fun to not do it proportionally, like a cartoon. On the right is a picture of two different ways to draw a sphere. The top one the shading was added last and created a burnishing effect, which allowed the colors to blend better. The bottom sphere is an example of putting the shadow on first; in my opinion this technique is harder because you view the sphere well. The bar in the middle of the picture is a value bar going from light to dark.

Communicating in artwork.

Zentangle 

In my Zentangle I communicated what society looks like and how everyone puts on a like persona on the outside, but in the inside they are all different and unique. I represented this by having the different sections have the same outline but different designs in them. The feather represents the little likeness that everyone has. Some people believe this to be bad, but I think the fact that everyone wants to look similar is good because it shows that we are all connected yet we all have individual aspects.

Creating original art. 

A lot of Zentangles are done inside of an object. I took that idea and changed it so the patterns are around the object making it the focal point that stands out from the rest of the patterns in the Zentangle.
