Art Progress

This is my mixed media artwork in its current state.

(Don't mind my finger there...)

This is my mixed media drawing/painting that I started near the start of term one. I like some parts of my artwork, such as the face and the Vogue piece, although I think if I did this again I would rather have a plan of where everything is going to go as I think this painting/drawing is quite messy in appearance. I would also want to get rid of whatever is happening near the "I" in "Fashion" as this was me just experimenting and I don't think it turned out particularly well. Asides from that I am quite happy with this artwork.

Lettering - Art

Today in art we took a picture of a fashion magazine and tried to copy the lettering from the title. The next lesson we tried adding colour to the lettering the colours I used were red, pink, and white. I tried to use tonal shading next to the I for a negative background personally I don't think it turned out well. I also added lines of white and pink behind the S and A and I personally thought it looked quite good. Other things I tried out include using white as a highlight in the letters and putting red in the letters to draw a slight bit more attention to the lettering.

Techniques - Art

Today in art we played with charcoal and white pastel and tried out different techniques used for drawing. The techniques I used were line drawing, print making/transfer, smudging, tonal shading, rubbing back, marking, and erasing. This was my finished product. I think I did all of the techniques alright but could have improved in my fluency of using them. My favorite technique was line drawing and tonal shading.
