Unfinished

As I was working on my blog last night, I got an idea to use iMovie to synch my picture up to the music.  I got a little side tracked, and started working on a spin off of my original idea for this project.  Instead of creating pictures and then scanning them in and synching [...]

Music Project

The Music Project was our last project.  We were assigned to pick a non-lyrical music composition, and to represent the song visually without using any recognizable objects and without color.  Because the piece was only allowed to be in black and white, and the values between, I felt like a metal song would fit these [...]

Extra Credit $5

So this assignment was for extra credit, it was to take a picture of ourselves frivolously spending $5.  So, I went to the General Store and bought a pack of cigarettes.  I consider buying cigarettes as completely frivolous because I’m shortening my life span, and paying R. J. Reynolds to do so. Both of my [...]

Missed assignment: Perspective credit card drawings

I think I was absent this day, because when I looked at other people’s blogs, they had these up from the first half, so I drew some perspective drawings. Even though I didn’t do this project when it was assigned, because I didn’t know about it, I do understand why we did this.   I [...]

Google images on mylar

I didn’t like this project at all.  I think the concept was to layer the images to match the values of our Diebenkorn like photographs.  I think I did it pretty well, but the reason why I didn’t like this project was for two reason. First, we were not allotted a lot of time for [...]

Diebenkorn Credit Card Value

I think I totally zoned out when this project was assigned because instead of doing quick value sketches, I reproduced my pictures.  Since this was a very very hard task, I didn’t finish.  But here is what I did. So then I went back home, and did the project correctly. I didn’t really like this [...]

Wood Floor Sculpture

I was absent for this day of class, so I looked through all the pictures of the wood sculptures and found this one to be my favorite. I chose this particular drawing because I really like the way it is designed.  The design itself show that it was planned and thought through. I also like [...]

Plexi Glass

For this project, we were pared up in groups in class and given different colors of paper to cut into shapes and put between different layers a of plexi glass to create a design.  Alex and Caroline were in my group for this project.  When we got our colors, I think we all were reminded [...]

Diebenkorn Drawings

So after playing chess, we, Chris and I, were handed a small black and white photocopy of a Diebenkorn painting.  We were assigned to copy this picture on a much larger scale, only using charcoal.  The chess project really helped me to understand how to get different values from the charcoal in order to replicate [...]

Chess!

I had a lot of fun with this project, even though Chris kicked my ass, I held on for as long as I could.  I hadn’t played chess since elementary school before this.  At first, I didn’t understand the purpose of this project, but once we were assigned the Diebenkorn drawings, I understood the purpose. [...]
