For this project, we paper mached masks with paper towels onto molds. When they dried, we took them off and painted them how we wanted. This project as well had little guidelines, so we were able to create original art and expand artistic abilities. For my mask, I pictured it black initially instead of white, so I decided to make mine black. I put many colors on it so they stood out and it was colorful. I ended up taking risks because I didn't always know what I was doing or how it would come out but I did it anyway.
For this project, we had to cut pieces out with an x acto knife and put them on the outside. I got to create original art and build my artistic abilities.
For this project, we had no guidelines or limitations. It just had to be multiple hands and not just one. While making this, I developed art making skills and created original art, all from my own brain. I also took risks with this project with the outside edges being the watercolors. I really had no intentions, just went for it and watched it become something before my eyes.
These were the drawings we had to do when we first started the basics of drawing. For the left photo, "R Mode vs. L Mode" we had to try to draw the other half of the picture to match as evenly as possible with the given side.For the right photo, Upside Down Man, we had to put a piece of paper over an outline, upside down, and move the paper down inch by inch, only drawing that section, one at a time. We did not know what the drawing was of until after drawing it. Working on these drawings, I worked on my artistic abilities. I also worked on patience with my art work, because it was not an easy thing to do.
For this project, we had to pick one of the acetate hands to draw out and shade with graphite. I developed my art making skills because I had a difficult time drawing out the hand and trying to figure out where to place the lines. I had also never tried shading with graphite before and choosing where to shade lighter or darker. It was a good skill to pick up for future art projects.
For this project, we had to trace our hands on acetate using a view finder until we created enough that we liked. Working on these hands, I worked on my artistic focus because we could only use one eye to do the tracings. I also had to be patient with myself because we had to trace slowly and it was somewhat difficult to get used to. Once I got the hang of it more I enjoyed the project.
