I decided to choose this project because I already knew what I wanted to draw beforehand. I was going to make a drawing of the Curry Ones. I communicates that I like Stephen Curry and his sneakers. I achieved learning to make drawing more realistic. I learned how to make and give the sneaker texture to make it more realistic. My current work doesn’t relate too my past work because I didn’t draw an image I just painted. I think an artist that my work related too is Claire Tabouret. She is detailed in her work and I feel like I am to. First I looked for the image that I wanted. After that I started to create the image by tracing the body then I filled in the details by myself. My only inspiration for this drawing is basketball. This image reflects my life and my world because basketball is both of those for me. The art work could inspire people too make drawings like mines. I don’t really have a teqnique I just trace the bodies then fill in the details. In conclusion what inspired me too make this image is my love for basketball. I made this image after my favorite basketball player and his sneakers. My method was too trace the body and fill in the details and it worked for me.
I created this project because Rihanna is my idol and i wanted to draw her since I idolize her so much. My overall vision for the work was to draw a picture of Rihanna with details as in depth as in the picture without the color. I wanted to bring out the beauty through value and lines which was used to represent her facial structure and contour.I think that my art communicates that Rihanna is beautiful and her beauty can be represented in many ways.I think i achieved personal happiness in getting to represent my idol in the way that i want her to be represented. My current work relates to my past work because usually when i create an art project it relates to things that affect my life or things that have been inspiring in my life.
I would say my work fit in with Post-war American War . I think i could relate my artwork to Irving Penn in 1917-2009.I first started my art piece by creating many sketches of what I wanted to draw. Once I got the idea of how I wanted to draw I then got my drawing utensils and started my work. I started first by drawing her outline features. Then, I started on her features. Once I got her features down packed I finished by outline of her facial structure. The image that I was trying to describe was a picture of RiRi with a short cut, holding her middle fingers up to the paparazzi . My work reflects the world I live in because people have this i don't care type of attitude and I can say that for myself as well because I have become a person that doesn’t care about a lot of things.The technique that I think was most important was vaulie because it really brought out the features of the drawing. A new technique I used was smudging .
For this project, I decided to re-create the linoleum outline. I had the outer of my picture all white and then traced for the rest to be covered with black ink. I used stars and the moon because to me they are very peaceful and have a bigger meaning to me than just a moon and stars. Although this project was fun doing I can say it was hard. I had trial and error a few times until I was satisfied with what my results were.
From beginning to end, this project has really made an impact on me and the way I view art. The most complicated part was actually carving out my picture, I had gotten a cut from the way I was doing it the first time but I got some help from a peer and got right back on track. Transferring the ink and getting it how I wanted it was quit easy and fun although It took a couple tries. What I greatly enjoyed was rolling the ink onto my canvas, it was fun and a unique way to show the art that I had made. If there is something that I would change about the project it would be the way I used my time, your work really reflects on effort and I feel like you can see that with my project. If I could go back I would use my time more easily and get advice from more advanced people to make sure my project has a chance at meeting expectations.
I created this specific picture because I figured an elephat head would be the best way to insert my texture and lines into my drawing. I hoped to achieve a culture look in my drawing with lines and different designs. I hope my work lets the viewer know that I worked hard for on it and the look I was achieving. I achieved the look I wanted for this project and getting my project done on time like I planned. I first started my project off with a rough draft of my elephant head with a pencil and went over with my final utensils which was a pen. I made sure all my different designs in my drawing werent the same, and where unique. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted to do for my texture&lines drawing so I looked up images on google and wasn inspired by a specific elephant drawing I came across, so I tried to get an idea from that (). I feel the pen I used was technique to the work because the thiness of it made my designs in my drawing more unique and neat. A new technique I learned while creating this project was to make sure your drawing is always rough before you start it.
While doing this project I learned to always work hard on your work but to take your time while doing it. This project made me realize to never wait last minute and to work just as hard on it as if it were any other project. I enjoyed creating my peice although if I could go back to chose another idea I would.
I have created an avocado because I felt that drawing food would have been an easy thing to draw. I was hoping to achieve to make a drawing that would represent what I love to do and what my vision is. I think it communicates with color to the viewer because the colors make my drawing pop out. I think I achieved making the seed of the avocado 3-dimensional. I think I also achieved with using my colors appropriately and in a useful way. My current work relates to my previous work because of the 3-dimensional use of shapes and the use of colors. One example of a piece of contemporary art that compares to my art is Adam Belt. Because of his use of shapes and texture to make his drawing and sculptures.
A process I used to create my work was I first searched a fruit that seemed easy to me to draw. Then, I drew the avocado to see how it would then after that I started to analyze my colors to see how I could use them. After that whole process, I realized that my avocado could turn out like how I wanted it to turn out. One source that inspired my work is Adam Belt. https://www.artsy.net/artist/adam-belt-1 On this link it shows his work and the use of shapes, texture, and use of definition in his work. This really inspired me to create this avocado. My work reflects the world I live in because it expresses the creativity that happens in today’s society. It reflects my life because it shows how hard I’ve worked on it. It reflects my experiences because in the drawing you can see that I used some of the stuff I have learned. My work can influence the world by just seeing how hard I’ve worked and tried to create the painting can influence others to try. A certain technique is important to the work because it can help you to get a good feel out of creating the work. For example, detailing, glazing, palette knife, etc. These techniques are helpful in making your piece of art. A technique that I learned is palette knife. I experimented with color mixing techniques which is what I used to make the colors for my drawing.
In conclusion, I used a lot of ways to show what I was aiming for in making this piece of art. I know it’s not the best painting but I want people to know how hard I worked on this painting. I hope that everybody enjoys.In my linoleum prints, I explore line and light and shadow. Everyday objects inspire me whether it is a teapot, cup and saucer, or the flowers in a garden or just random heart pictures. I chose to create the linoleum cut project because it seemed easy , and very detailed by using simple steps and stencils. I was hoping to achieve a different way to create and print in a different type of way instead of the old fashioned way. Nobody likes being boring ,they like exploring new things. I think my work communicates with the viewer because the viewer can see the painting how I viewed it. I viewed it as if it was a bright strong flower in a dark world, where no one was like her, and she wasn’t afraid to stand out. Working on this project I achieved how to think smaller , and basic first and then work my way up to the top to achieve a great art project. My current work relates to my previous work because I always end choosing basic art pieces that are difficult , or difficult art pieces that I cannot do and ill fall behind, but for this one I thought simple , and my backstory bigger. My work fits in with contemporary art because contemporary art is art that has been created and continues to be created during our lifetimes. With linoleum cut , anybody could have the same one as me , as long as they do their outlining the same, or they carve the middle then it would be different because the background would be white instead of black. The process of creating this project was First I chose a difficult flower to draw but I couldn’t draw it smaller onto the linoleum board , so I had to choose a much smaller one that’s simple. So I figured since the flower is basic i’ll make the meaning unique. And that’s what I did. After I drew my flower on the board , I outlined what I wanted to be black and what I wanted to be white. So the inside of my flower is white while the outside is black , So for mine I Had to carve along the black lines or around
I chose this project because I liked that it gave me the freedom to make any kind of artwork that I chose to do and mesh it with other mediums. I decided to make a painting of a mountain lake with a 3D canoe floating in the water. I would hope that my work would give its audience a stress-free relaxing feeling like they were on a summer vacation in the mountains. It really has to do a lot with me too because of how often I go camping in the mountains. This is my first piece that incorporates wood carving and I am really proud that I was able to pull it off. I think that this piece could fit into Philly’s street art scene, at first glance it may not seem like it but it takes elements from artists like Aubrie Costello and Low Level who inspire me with their use of 3D objects in their installs. I hope that this piece can impact the world with driving more people to decide to take up art and I really hope that it does.
