Monalloon

We made the Monalisa out of 1,804 balloons. It was hard and took a long time. Everyone had to blow up their own balloons and tie them on to the thing. I only put about 3 balloons on.

Forced perspective.

Forced perspective you make something look smaller or bigger by your position in front of the camera and how far away or close you are to the camera. For my groups we made it look like someone was eating another. It took a while to get it positioned right.

Painting

For our painting we had to find three references, a background, middle ground and fore ground. It took a while to paint and it was a little difficult, but a lot of fun.

Pastles.

For our pastles project we made something on our table out of objects, and then colored it with pasltes on a big piece of paper. We tried to use at least five colors on each object that we colored to make it look better. This project was very hard, and messy. It took a while to complete.

Sticky Notes Project.

I think our sticky note project came out very well. It took a lot of group work and was very difficult to create. This project was a lot of fun for our group and we enjoyed working on it together.

With glowsticks, we made light art! We decided to represent the word thug. It took a lot of tries to get it to look good. To make the words look right in the picture you have to write them backwords. Each person drew an individual letter from the word with many glowsticks in their hand.

For our value scale drawings we drew people from our sister school in Canada. Drawing this was very dificult. We started by tracing the pictures of the people at first and then we colored on the back of the tracing paper. When we traced over what we traced before it makes the marking on the paper and you draw over that making it look better. We then made shadows and lightened his face. The value scale was a very hard project for me.

Hand Painting and Tape Art.

In art we drew our hands and created an animal out of it.

My inspiration for creating a frog was that a frog is my favorite animal. The steps in creating the frog was first i had to draw my hand in my sketchbook in the shape that of the animal. Second i made the frogs eyes, and mouth. So then the next day i could paint the frog onto my hand. This project worked pretty well, the only thing was that it was a little hard to paint my own hand. The most diffucult thing about this project was trying to draw my hand in the shape that i wanted it.

The next week we made tape art, which is taking masking tape and creating a design out of it. My team came up with our idea of making kite man because he was on the wall next to our table. In class we drew out kite man in our sketchbooks and practiced making him out of tape on the table. We then went out and searched for a place in the school to create our tape art. The next day we took our masking tape and started to create him on a wall in the building. After he was done we used markers and colored part of him so he would stand out better on the white wall. Our tape art came out successful and looked a lot like the actual kite man and looked like our sketches. It mostly worked accept for the masking tape was about the same color of the wall that we created it on. If I was to do this project again i would probably use a different wall considering the color of the masking tape.
