Develop art skills. 

During the warm ups I learned a couple new art skills, like how to use perspective to get the view to look where you want them to and show depth in a drawing. 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. Below is a picture of a bench that sides show perspective and lead the eye to the end which has the door. Learning these new techniques will help my art to grow in the correct direction. it will help for me to show more emotion and really show the depth of a hallway or passage and everything will be in proportion.

Artists Collaborate

During the process of creating this art i asked the people around my table if they liked it or what they thought of it. If i had to grade myself on take information and using it i would give myself a two i hear what they say. But I didn't take it into account what they were saying like with my dream catcher i heard what you said and i didn't know what to do but i just choose the thing i new i could do. which ties into artists taking risks i wanted to do what i was comfortable with and what was easy. 

Artists Create original art

I took the basic idea of buildings and hallways and changed to an object similar to both. It is lond like a hallway and has the corner of a building. This is one thing that i think i am improving on this year. I used to look at others art work and copy it or get inspiration from the people at the table.

But I didn't take it into account like that i want to fill in the white spots in the oil pastels. i heard it but I didn't change anything about it or correct it. 

Artists Take Risks 
During this project I realized that draw horses was complicated and I wasn't sure how to draw one. I took all of the information I learned in art and looked online to help me gather information to paint a watercolor horse. Before I knew how to paint it the shadows and the depth didn't show (this is the horse on the right.) The horse on the left is after I took all I know about mixing darker colors to shade and after I watched the video on how to paint a horse. The video I watched showed how to use dry brush for the darker shades and add water so they gradually get lighter.

Have a Global Awareness of Artmaking
During fun friday we do many things that people currently are messing with and looking into, to create cool art. One fun friday we created a moving sculpture on the ceiling of a trailer. In the past fun friday we took perspect photos which many artists apply themselves to. When you create art similar to others around the world it can connect you and the other people. No art is exactly the same.
  

Developing art making skills.

In art class we learned how to draw with oil pastels. As a class we each drew a sphere with oil pastels. We were then given the option to do the next project in oil pastels. The project that I'm currently working on is about space I chose to do the project in oil pastels. One thing I like about oil pastels is they are easy to blend and give the picture a nice texture. Oil pastels are fun to draw with other than the fact that your hands are covered in them after you finish.




Solving problems.
It is not really a problem, but I learned how to draw a face better and I was able to make it more realistic. I learned how values can bring something to life and show the depths and feelings. I used what i learned and put it into my work to help the nose be gradual on the face and not very intense  and stuck on there. Also we learned how to draw each feature of the face which helped the whole face to be more realistic. I would like to learn how to draw hair next.

 

Artists reflect.
In art we have the day to look at others art and right positive comments. After we have this I enjoy to look over my comments and use the comments to improve my art or to improve my feelings about my art. Before this I felt my art wasn't good enough and that everyone else was better. After this i realized we all strengths and I just need to find mine.

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.
