Behold....
This was an abstract piece. Obviously. I'm not going to tell you what it is; I'll leave that up to you. My art teacher was very impressed with my mug, though. That I will tell you. Made with acrylic paint. My drug of choice.
This wasn't an art project. It's just a picture I saw in my head, so I painted it. It took forEVER, and I ended up giving it to my sister. Not sure if she liked it, but I liked it, so I gave it to her. Cuz that makes sense.. Made with acrylic paint.
This was an art project, but a while ago. I absolutely love using charcoal. It's so much fun and SO easy to make drawings look impressive. Simply because it's so easy. I chose an apple and a fork because of the whole apple for Snow White, fork for Ariel.. it happens.
I did this last summer at Red Deer College during a print-making class. SO much fun!
Drawing of a dear. Again, charcoal makes it look impressive. Made with pencil and charcoal.
Drooping sunflower. This took ten and a half hours to draw. I quite like it. Made with pencil.
Elm tree. Made with chalk and oil pastels.
Not an art project, but a birthday present project for my friend. I wanted to keep it, but I simply don't have the space on my walls. Plus then I'd have to make her a new present, and that takes time. Made from acrylic paint.
Perspective drawing of my brother. Again- charcoal makes it look good.
Giraffe in a circle.
Giraffe in a rectangle.
Giraffe in a triangle. It took forever to get the proportions right for this one. Giraffes actually position themselves like that when they're drinking water or eating or whatever.
My very first attempt with oil paints, and I must say- I LOVE THEM! Granted, it did take about a week for this painting to dry, and my room did smell like a gas station for that duration. But it was so much fun! I definitely see myself doing oil a LOT more in the future.
Not an art assignment, just a random doodle one day. Actually, my first go at this the rose looked like a giant blob of red. A couple months later I decided to rectify that, and proceeded to spend the next six hours (or however long it too) to make the rose look decent. Now it looks epic. And I don't know what to do with the rest of the canvas. Any ideas??
A collage I made for school. I absolutely adore making collages. They are so much fun. I learned a couple new things with this assignment, such as using tissue paper or going over the images with watercolour paint. So neat! I can't wait to do it again.
An art assignment, but a bit ago. I love doing still lives. With charcoal, with acrylic paint (I actually haven't done still lives with anything else, with the exception of pencil). I love doing the proportions, and being challenged by the proportions, and then mastering them.. like, look at the lamp's stand. How friggen impressive is that!? It looks so real! And the vase? Goodness gracious I love that vase.
This is my birdy sculpture. His name is Marvin.
This is a negative space painting. I didn't like the colours, but they were what I had to use. Sort've. Acrylic paint.
RAWR! This is Clover. He's my panther mask. I was supposed to make an African ceremonial mask out of paper mache and tin foil as the mold, and my mom was like "I have a panther mask. Just use that!" so I did. And I ended up having to cut the snout off to actually get the thing off the original mask. Then I just paper mached them back together. And then painted him. He's black, blue, blue, blue, and white. And yellow, which makes it look green. I used lots of colours.
Picture of my dad. I used him as a model when I initially drew the thing, but he wasn't there when I was painting him. Which is fine- I intentionally used red and green and such on his face. The thing is, I wasn't really paying attention to how small I was making his body in comparison with his head. So this is my little caricature of him. I think he either looks like an angry Russian, or an angry Jesus/Moses.
Relief portrait. I did one of these in grade ten, and it sucked. This one was totally awesome! What you do is you take some poster board, draw a picture (in this case, a portrait), colour it hard with wax crayon, and cut up pieces, in this case into six pieces. Then cover the entire thing with india ink (you might have to use more than one coat. I usually do), then once it's dried, you take something sharp like a nail or, in this case, a toothpick, and scratch away at it. Using different designs or whatever. Then, for this one, I took cardboard that I cut up into tiny circles and I glued them behind each piece in different heights. It's kinda awesome.
It's a stage. Be impressed with the spotlight, and how it's three different, impressive colours.
A drawing that "emphasizes line, shape, and colour". I didn't really like doing it, but I wrote a pretty impressive analysis on it!
Technical rose, I call it. Because it's a technical drawing. Technical, because it was made from a ruler. Only straight lines. It took forever. I used up all my marker juice on it.
Another project I did last summer. Praying fairy, NOT an angel. (Not that I have anything against angels. I just think fairies are prettier). It took 12 hours to make. It was difficult, but also fun! Made from that wire stuff that's like, from cable cords or whatever. You cut them open and there's coloured wire inside!
