Opacity

This project was a woozy. My first idea was water and next to the water is a leave. I started to sketch it and it looked good, but when I started to color in the areas, it looked like a hotdog. I just got so frustrated with the project so I just gave up. I knew I should not have given up but I did. So instead I went around the house and looked for see through objects. I didn't find anything accept this bottle. The black part of the paper that's not colored in is supposed to be a seat. The seat was black and had no highlights in them so that's how I drew them. 

Perspective. This is not a llama

The perspective drawing. This is not a llama!! It's an alpaca. I chose to draw and alpaca because I was wearing alpaca socks that day and I remembered that I had taken a picture of an alpaca when I went zip lining in Virginia. Another reason why I drew this was because I like to draw animals. The blue bars you see in the picture is the fence that holds the alpacas back. For me the blue fence moves my eye in the direction it's going. The focal point is the eye because it's the darkest piece, then to the fence. The hardest part of the drawing was the hairs and how to get them to really show. I overcame that obstacle when I drew the dark parts around the hair pieces to get the hair to really pop. 

Pastels and prisma color

This picture is the pastel drawing. We picked a piece of candy from the bag and draw them. In order to get the wrapper texture, you would have to draw the lights you see in the wrapper instead of the darks.

This is the prisma color candy. Prisma color is like a colored pencil but more expensive and more artsy. Drawing the wrapper of the candy is easy because all you have to draw is the lights and not the darks. 

Contour line drawing

Contour is supposed to look sloppy because you can't lift your pencil. 

Bottle Drawing

Instead of drawing the darkness, we would draw the light. After we colored in the light, we would add color to the bottle

Onion's have LAYERS

For this project we had to incorporate layers and emotion. even though you don't see any emotion in these pictures, there's a back story to this sloth. For some time now my parents have always called me a sloth because I was slow. This was as a joke (not to make fun of me). Now I actually like sloths, they are really cute. Before I die, I want to hold a sloth.Any way this sloth is made of paint and glue mixed together. I printed out a picture of a sloth and photoshopped it to make it the colors I wanted.and yup thats the sloth...
