I choose this picture because it was taken in Grayton Beach, Florida where I had a beach house and I always visit. The Red Bar is a common restaurant know for its good tasting food, music choice, and its location. Its a funky and groovy restaurant that I always go to. I love this picture because the Red Bar sign is all shirts, stickers, cars, and other things. I'm looking forward to foundations because i cant wait to see what kind of different art things that I will create and learn in this school year.
During this class period we worked on drawing from a perspective. I struggled on connecting each point to the vanishing point but in the end it all worked out. I learned that just by connecting lines to the center line also known as the vanishing point that you can make the drawing seem from a different angle. I liked doing this drawing because I had never drawn anything like this and it was my first time and I learned a lot, and it was fun.
In this photo I tried to make everything be looking from a perspective. I made it look like things were moving farther away. I definitely had a hard time with connecting everything to my vanishing point. It made everything a bit more complex. I thought that this was a fun art exercise even though i had some difficulties.
This was one of the most difficult pieces of art we have done so far in my opinion, because I was having a hard time connecting the vanishing point to every line. I had a hard time with space because I ran out of room to draw my doors and that was a small problem that I had to try and work out. Over all this was a hard lesson, but I learned that if you mess up then you just have to try your best and keep going.
This is my first day art work of the theater. This is starting to become a really fun assignment because I am starting to get the hang of it. I am still struggling on the perspective of the lines and also using the strait edge to help me draw my line. It is overall a good project and I am really enjoying it.
In the beginning of this drawing we had to start by drawing a circle to show where the tree would be and where the background would be placed. The best part of drawing this tree was getting to draw the stems and the branches because we were able to be creative with the branches and got to make kind of make our own tree.
This is my finale draft of the tree. I thought that it would be a very hard structure to draw considering there was a different way of making the leaves instead of being very detailed or just scribbling on the page. I learned when drawing the leaves that you just have to be free with the pencil and to not worry about making it perfect. The background of the tree was difficult as well because I was unsure of how big we had to make everything look. Overall this was my favorite drawing we have done.
This is a drawing of an old house with a lot of detail. When looking at this picture before I had even thought of drawing it, I had a lot of mixed feelings about it. It looked very complex and I had no clue where to begin. I thought that making the drawing look old would be impossible, but once I started to draw what I saw, it made things a lot easier. I liked being able to draw the ground with all the grass and the different heights of bushes and grass, but I did not like drawing the chimneys. This was one of my favorite drawings and I was proud of my work.
I think that this new assignment will be a fun but very advanced project. I liked being able to choose any person in the world to draw, so I choose Blake Lively. I figured it would be hard to draw her but I hope that if I take my time then everything will work out. We started by choosing our person and then measuring the picture to a 10/8 squares on each the picture and the canvas. The next step is to start drawing your person.
