shades of gray

The goals was to have 5 different shades of gray and to have all the objects on the table look like it on paper. I achieve my goals by using my eraser to make the outlines of the objects and then I started using dark black to the drak objects then I used the regular charcoal and shaded very lightly and then I colored the lighter objects by putting a little more pressure on the charcoal to get a meduim and then to get in the middle i used my finger and smudged the charcoal to get in between. The challenge i had was trying to get the towel on my paper but i use the eraser with 3 light lines and black the other 3 lines because the towel was green and white

Title- Nighthawks Artist Edward Hopper and he was born in Nyack,New York

year it was made 1942 medium used- oil on canvas.

2. my first impresson that its a regualr monday and 4 people are having coffee

3. Hopper was inspired by a dinner where he lived greenwich village and shows a typical night people having dinner he used night owl a term to say people stay up late edward was a artist a very good one. As a young teenager he was making his own cartoons using charcoal and oil and paint.

4. I see contrast because everything look dark except inside the dinner place. Theres also leading lines where the artist wants you too see from. I think its asymetrical because its balanced because theres another building but inside its not balanced because there's 1 person side and on the other there's 3 people.

1. SYMMETRY 2.almost symmetrical 3.opposite symmetry 4.radial

I began with my my trophy case and my eyeball. I knew i wanted to make a one eyed creature. I thought thinking about which animal has one eye. Then it came to mind plankton from spongebob. I was thinking about making alien but i seen that plankton was simliar to a alien. I found his antlers and put legs on it. My sculpture was successful because i made it look like something. Something i could of done differently was to be more creative to make it look like plankton.

The principles of design-rules that organize shapesm linnes and forms help you get to the place that you want to get to with art

unity- a feeling where everything in the picture works together to make one

variety - including differences to make art more interesting

balance- is when visual weight of an art work feels evenly distributed

symmetry- draw line in the middle of picture its equal on both sides

approximately symmetrical- when both sides is almost equal

asymmetry- opposite of symmetry

radial where yu draw a line it would more divided it will always be the same

emphasis- when one element in an artwork appears to be more important or attract the most atention to create

contrast- when something very different around the focus

rhythm and movement

Proportion- size relationship of the parts to one another or to the whole

color

shapes

forms

create a story make distance shape and color to make contrast

Reflecting at Midterm

I have made a lot of progress as a artist this term. Art isn't my best subject but I tend to sometimes put a lot of effort in my work. I think im became more creative by really thinking about cool ways to make my art look unique in it's own way. I think im trying hard and trying to make evrything the picture work well with each other

whats in the sack

The goal was to tell that every bag had a different object in it. I achieved my goal by first drawing the general shapes of all the bags then I started to draw the different objects I think I saw in each bag and I drew the garbage cans and colored them all black and erase some to make it a little lighter then i drew the oval object and i ade it a light gray to mAKE IT LOOK LIKE A SOLID

i took everything out of the toy eye because i wanted to make a one eye of creature and i brought my trophy so i could use it as a body then i used a casette and use the indise wire things to use as antlers but i haven't found my legs.

3 things I had to do in order to complete the goal was to pay attention more to what was going on and off the table. I had to make sure to see the things that was getting overlapped and things i couldn't see because sometimes i forgot to erase the things i couldn't see. The last thing i need to do was drawing good size objects because sometimes i drew objects too small or too big instead of a average size

The positive feedback was that it resembled a love story and the blue and purple lines mixed in well with each other. The negavtive was that i should of added a extra line to show what happen between each person. I felt good on my classmates crtiquing on my work. I think they gave me good ideas to do next time.
