artists collaborate!

This project was done by three of us. We choose to work together and make a story. We used other people in the class to add each new page. Each student was only allowed to see just the page before so the story has a lot of turns. This is collaboration because we worked together to come up with an idea but then the students helped us make story actually come together. I enjoyed this project because we got to work with others. I also liked it because it was a fun process to watch. In the end the only problem we had was that the story has no main plot since you could only see the one page before. This is what makes the story unique though!

Artist Solve Problems

For this project I had to solve a problem. The problem I solved what was could I make out of wire and beads. 

Illustration Friday

SMOOTH

This week our illustration Friday was to draw something smooth. I drew smooth rocks in a river, like skipping rocks. There is a bunch of them.

For this project I chose my limitation to be wire. I decided to only use wire to make an object. Since it is fall I made a pumpkin with a stem. I bent all the wire and put it together. Along the sides I added beads to give it some color and on the stem I added green beads because stems are normally green. I used the people around me to come up with an idea and they also helped me figure out how to construct the final thing. So far I just have the pumpkin made and I now have to decide what I am going to do with it.

Artists Steal

I think that copying is not okay. Taking someone else's artwork is basically claiming it as yours. 

For my final project I took a picture of myself and cut out my body on photoshop. I then chose to add a different background and effects. I had trouble with this project while choosing what kind of background and effects to add. I also didn't know how to position the picture on the background. In the end I am happy with my final outcome and I think that it looks really cool!

artist observe!

For this project I chose to use photography. I took pictures of dancers feet in different positions. I used photoshop to them position the pictures on a poster. I was inspired to use dancers feet because dancing is a passion of mine. I enjoy creating art with it. During my project I had trouble aligning all the pictures together so that they were all in line and they had no gaps inbetween. Overall I enjoyed this project and I am happy with the outcome!

Artists Observe Mini Project

To accomplish this project I left my phone out at my dance studio. I wanted to see what would happen when someone else picked it up. One of the other girls took it and started taking pictures of her feet, so this is what I got out of it!
