Dreamlike Painting

I learned how to paint smaller details easier, toothpicks are awesome!
I used some magazine pictures and paint.
My strengths I think are the elephant head and then the trees.
My weaknesses are the bottom of the painting with the bricks, it became messy.

Semester Reflection

Next semester I would like to use crayons and wax.
This semester I liked Zen tangle the most.
It was the only project that turned out remotely decent.
Painting is not my thing.
My box by box painting looked like a 4 year old did it.
The scratch board project was my second favorite but I went through the paper in a couple places. :(
I learned that I need to use more detail and be more patient.
The word drawing was the easiest but it was not epic.
I learned how to make the color green, you use blue and yellow.
Still life drawings would've been more fun if I had drawn other objects.
My police badge was the best even though I know it didn't get picked because it was pink.
I also learned how to spell police after I messed up.
I really am excited for this next semester. :)

Little Kid Painting

 This was the worst painting I've ever done. It looks like a little kid drew it and it only slightly represents the photo. I learned that box by box is hard and very frustrating. I love to paint but this didn't turn out well. Materials I used was a photo, paper, paint, pencil and a ruler. I wish I had chosen a different more easier photo to paint.

Still Life

I learned how to use different tools to add more texture and effect to an object. I also learned how to you white pencil to make different types of black. I used household items that were in the art room, pencils, chalk, and paper. I really like how my bottles turned out along with the salt thing, but the rest could've used more time and patience. I also wished I had picked other objects to draw.

Scratch Boards

I learned that scratch board is really hard, and that you can easily scratch through the black. I really like the character I chose to scratch, but I don't like how its not all proportional and even on both sides. I used the internet to watch videos and find ideas of animals to scratch. The hardest part was making everything even and scratching out the white.

Ink Drawing

Materials I used in this drawing were pens of different colors. I really like her hair and how her tail has a side sweep. I don't like her left arm (our right) its a little chunkier then the other. I learned how to darken certain areas with lines or dots. I could improve on making all the lines even and precise. 

Text Art

1. I created a whale fin with the song lyrics from the song "The Light is You" by Said the Whale. I used colored pencils and black markers.

2. I learned that simple is better.

3. The fin part of the picture.

4. The "said the whale part" it looks sloppy.
