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.
