In the month of October my main focus was on blind contour as well as beginning a sketch. With my sketch I created original art because I went off a picture that I had taken this past summer when I was on vacation. I’m trying to sketch the picture and once I’ve finished I’m going to color it in with colored pencil. The blind contour has helped me develop a new skill. It taught me how to draw what I was seeing rather than what I thought I was seeing. I have collaborated with my class as well as my teacher this past month and discovered that I prefer to draw landscapes and I’m going to try and focus in on creating those with images that I have took on my trips across the country and the world.

During the first month of school we have already gone over so many of our artistic behaviors. The first project we worked on was drawing selfies using data. This project was very interesting to be because we took an interesting approach on it by showing different things about us like our age, where we were born, what time we go to bed and so much more. After this we moved on to creating a hive! Still sticking on the topic of expressing who we are we all drew seven pictures that show our lives. I drew things like the beach and a dog paw because those are two things that I love. I was able to communicate through my work with this project and have the class reflect on my work with me. The last project we had worked on this month was a still-life drawing where we focused on the negative space in the picture. I drew objects like chairs and stands and then filled in the background with maps to draw the attention to the negative space. I had to collaborate with the class after I had created my outline and everyone suggested that I add more line variation and I really liked the way that it turned out. So far this year this is I believe is my most powerful piece and I am very confident in it. |
