1. What new skills did you learn or what did you improve on during this unit? This unit I learned a lot about "stealing" other artist's ideas and using them for inspiration. I made two Pinterest boards this unit and used them to get ideas of how to make my final product for our projects.I also improved on sketching and using colored pencils, which we introduced early in this unit. Here are my sketches and brainstorming ideas I made for the Mixed Elements Project: 2. How has your thinking about what original art is changed? I learned that original art doesn't always have to come from just your eyes. By stealing other artist's ideas, our art can still be considered original and make our art work much better. Stealing other people's ideas is okay, but when you copy off other people's artwork, that is not okay. For the Animated Character Change Project, I made a picture of Dash from the Incredibles, but instead of him being and athletic, I made him a bit more fat. Here is My final product: 3. What challenges or successes did you have during this unit? Would you change anything you did if you could go back and re-do it? This unit I had difficulty coming up with making a good final product but it all turned up well in my opinion. I think I had some good success with making my own creative ideas even though the class and i were given the opportunity to set inspiration off Pinterest. If I could go back and re do this unit, I would probably spend more time getting ideas off Pinterest and get a better, more interesting idea. For the Mixed Element Project, i made a drawing of The Empire State Building merging into an Acacia Tree. Here is my final product: |

How has your understanding artistic space changed this unit? My understanding of Artistic space increases greatly this unit. I learned a whole lot about one point perspective, two point perspective, and forced perspective. I learned how to do shading with a shading pencil and learned how to make artwork using artistic perspective. What exercise was the most helpful and why? For me, the most helpful exercise this unit was just being able to brainstorm ideas and sketch things that come to mind. Doing this gave me creative ideas and i think it gave me a much better final piece of artwork. How do you feel about your work for the final project? Was it successful? I feel like my final project had a very good turnout. It gave the viewer a good idea of perspective, depth, and space. It is cube based structure that is mixed of a bunch of cubes that gives you a good feeling of shading. It looks a lot like modern type art. Here it is: |
