Painting

Color Scheme Painting:
For this project we had to choose a person to draw and paint and I chose Liza Koshy. We had to draw a grid out and draw their face and body to scale. Then we used tempera paints for each of the 8 color schemes which included: warm, cool, analogous, complimentary, split complimentary, triad, monochromatic, and true.

Tempera Batik Practice:
In this project, we learned what the method of tempera batik was and how to make it look good in our artwork. I experimented with different shapes and with the technique itself to see where I drew with the soft pastel affected how my piece looked. (I explained all of the steps in my Tempera Batik Final.)
Tempera Batik Final:
For this project, we had to practice the method called, tempera batik. You start out by using soft pastels and drawing the outline of what you are drawing. Then you use tempera paint and paint the areas around the pastel. Whenever you are done painting, you then paint a layer of India ink all over your paper. When it is dry, spray and brush it down with water so that your lines will appear black.

Choice Project 1:
For this project, we had the choice to do whatever we wanted to do as long as we used some type of paint. I chose to do this because I thought the sunflower with all the butterflies would look nice together in one picture.

Choice Project 2:
For this project, we had the choice to do whatever we wanted to do as long as we used some type of paint. I chose this because my mom has wanted me to make a picture of a giraffe for her for awhile so I took this opportunity to do it.

Sketchbook

Goals 2017: This is a double page spread for my 2017 goals for this school year.  Color Theory: This is a Two-page spread about Color Theory. Included on these pages I put examples and defined 7 color schemes  and did the same for hue, saturation, neutral colors, and intensity. I have included a color wheel with the definition of color. Digital Painting Sketch: This is my sketch for what I am planning on doing for my digital painting. We picked what we were going to do by random. For the project I got: Subject: Wild animal, Style: Pop art, and Theme: Space age. Watercolor Experimenting: In class we experimented with different types of watercolor to get a feel  for the different kinds. My least favorite was the watercolor pencil because it gave off an unclean look. The watercolor palette was easy to use and you could control it more. The liquid watercolor was very pigmented and dried quickly and the watercolor tube allowed you to control the pigm...

The Artist's Eye: In this project I made a two-page spread with my goals for this school year  on them and from that we had to make thumbnail sketches incorporating something from the two-page spread. I used colored pencils for the majority of the eye and then I used graphite pencil for the eyelashes and finally, I used black acrylic paint and a brush to splatter it. Portfolio Cover: This is my portfolio cover for painting. I made it simplistic because I felt like I didn't really have to make it such a focal point because whatever is on the inside is what counts. Harlem Renaissance (Final): This is my final Harlem Renaissance piece. To create this, I researched about the Harlem Renaissance to get ideas and clashed them together. I used colored pencils and water color on this piece. Figure Proportions: In class, we studied the body and it's proportions. This is my final piece for this unit.
