    Default [A&P] My arts, let me show you them

    Some new arts from my art class, plus a photo.

    This is my watercolor project. I'm a little too tired to explain how I did the B&W pipe, but the background is just watercolor swatches that I pasted into the back. The red and orange drips are neat. I did that by puttin a blob of very wet watercolor on the page and blowing it with a straw to make the "drip" affect. The leaves are not done yet. I'll do them in the B&W with a gloss of red-orangeish. I might add another swatch.

    As for my final exam in Art, we have to do an arbitrary color self portrait using a famous artistic style that you like with oil pastels. I chose fauvism. I haven't gotten to the color yet, but I did the outline drawing. It's actually very accurate to the source photo, which is probably the most difficult portrait I had to draw, so I decided I'd show you guys it. It looks a little crazy because it has no values yet. I think I'll probably end up taking photos during the whole process to show a step by step, perhaps?



    And here is a photograph I took today. Not bad for not really using my camera for months. Mommy's eye.

    Funny how even the little things bring out the best bits about the piece. I really like the effect.

    On the self portrait, you did a great job getting the perspective accurate, as the angle shows it would have been difficult to draw. I'd like to see this one completed.

    The photo is nice.

    Wow, that looks so great. I love the colours used on the hair. Whats great about it is that there is so many strong colours being used, but it doesn't dampen the outcome, which in many cases can be the case.
