Day of the Dead

Day of the Dead girl is pretty and colorful. i especially liked the roses, they turned out the best. The use of color was fun to do because i don't always use color. The spider webs were used to fill in the background some, but if i were to do it over i would place them better and more strategically to complement the way the rest of the piece moves.

jack skellington

I liked this picture that i drew. Its of jack sewing is heart into her. I liked the shading in it and i think it turned out well overall. Getting the hair to wrap and flow around her body was the most difficult part. If i were to do this again i would vary the shades of grey more so they contrast more to bring more attention to certain parts of the drawing.

clay project

no picture available.
I liked my clay project. I tried to give it a rough wood texture and it has a mushroom in the corner. The side of it says Free Your Mind. I plan to paint the wooded looking part brown, and do the rest in yellow, green and red. The only problem doing this project was trying to determine how thick the clay should be; i was always trying to make it too thick. What i learned in doing this project was how to texture the clay a little more than what i had did in the past.

mushrooms

This is my favorite project this year so far. I like all the use of color. The paint splatter was fun to do. I like the large orange yellow and green mushroom the best of all of them. Painting the smaller mushrooms at the bottom completed the painting i think. I also thought that using different, darker colors as the paint splat background was a good idea, it made the brighter colors in the mushrooms stand out more.

rope

I liked this drawing because i think it was a creative way of drawing the rope. The detail used in the rope itself was poor, but the layout was nice.The most difficult part of this piece was the overlapping of the rope and getting it to look good.
