Reflecting on Four Hour Project

For my four hour project was making 3D shapes and use leading lines and movement. The first half of it is in black and white and the other half is in color. I wanted to show the contrast between black and white and color. I have really enjoyed doing this project because it gives me the freedom to do whatever I want. But it is also hard because there are so many opportunity to do many differnet things. My process was going in my sketch book and decided what to do. Then I just went for it and started my project. It is taking a longer than I thought and I decided to take it home in order to finish it. Overall, this project is really fun and I can't wait for Art Principles next term.

The Book Project...progress and planning.

For my story I am having two brothers. Eventually, one brother wants the other to be a monk, but the brother wants to be a photographer. One day the inspiring photographer brother see's a van with the name of his favorite photo magazine. He starts to chase them but then they drive away and he has to become a monk. I think it is going pretty well, somethings that might turn out to be hard are trying to change the happy theme to an anger theme in one of the photos, and also trying to be able to change the body structure of one of the characters. Nothing has changed so far in my planning other than the placement of some of the characters.

Drawing the Human Figure from the Inside Out.

Today's goals were to think about proportion when drawing someone. You also want to draw from the perspective that you are at and not what your mind tells you. I thought that today, this activity was challenging and interesting. It really made the drawings much easier when you kept going and didn't stop to take a moment and think about it. I think on my first picture I was just starting to work on the perspective thing, but the second one I really got it. Overall, I like drawing people more than I have before.
