Kinetic DrawingThis was one of the first exercises completed at the beginning of the school year. With a partner you met your hands in the middle of the paper mirroring each others movements with soft pieces of charcoal to eventually create a very aesthetically intriguing piece. Blind Contour drawingThe purpose of a blind contour drawing is to rely strictly on your skills of observation without physically looking at what you're doing on the paper. For this blind contour particularly the task was for you to use a mirror to look at yourself while drawing what you observed. Keeping in mind not to pick up the utensil being used. After completing the exercise at least three times we were then able to pick a color scheme in order to make it more cohesive. As shown above I chose to do a warm color scheme using similar patterns to try and make it more cohesive. Charcoal Portrait #ArtprofdareAs part of an online series of tips and tutorials from artprof we took her dare and created charcoal portraits from pictures we took ourselves. Using her lessons online we went through them as we created our pieces learning new techniques-- especially the creation of thumbnails and cross hatching-- that helped to improve upon our work. "Draw you future self" #artprofdare2For this dare proposed by artprof we were challenged to create a piece that represented our future without drawing a portrait. When I'm older one thing I would really love to do is study abroad or travel. I've always been in love with European culture, especially the U.K and Ireland. For this I decided to create a piece with a telephone box as the focal point for it is a widely known figure that is tied with Britain. I also wanted this to be an opportunity to experiment with a new medium of pen and ink. In the end I really enjoyed how it came out and will definitely use pen and ink a lot more in the future.
