During the second month of art, we did 2 things that were assigned and then I started my own piece of art. First we had to make a drawing on a paper bag after it was wet and ironed. I took a chance and a risk when I drew on a surface that wasn’t flat. The things that I drew were glass pieces and that was challenging but I think I really got good highlights in the pictures. After that we did some blind contours and we worked on drawing different things around the room and people without looking down at the paper. The drawings don’t really come out looking anything like what we were drawing but over time you become better as you go slower and have plenty of practice. Then we did a contour drawing of ourselves. I really struggled with this and didn’t end up liking it at all. I had to collaborate with others around me to get some help from others. It was very challenging to use the different charcoals. Last thing that I am working on is a painting on a canvas. I am making something that has warm colors on the top for the sun. Then there are cool colors on the bottom for the water. The colors are opposites and they make each other pop. I really enjoy doing projects that I can come up with on my own.
