Self Portrait Project
Impressionist Painting
Art 1 Sketchbook
For this project I had to make a sketch book, I learned the anatomy and basics of making a book and using other elements for arts and crafts. I started off with making the cover with water colors. I then put the cardboard pieces (the hard cover) together, and made sure they were an inch apart to make the spine. I put together the sketch book and put together the end pages. Finally I had to make signatures, I folded 25 pieces of paper and put them into groups of five to make each signature. This project was a really good learning experience for arts and crafts and maybe finding a new hobby.
On this project, I drew a close up dog nose and worked with different art techniques. Texture was used through out the whole piece. It was used especially on the fur of the dog, and the nose of the dog. Value was used in this project. It was used to make the image pop more and make the image have better texture. Pattern/Repetition was used on the nose of the dog and all the individual fur. Gradation was used on the mouth of the dog. Space was used to make the dog's nose feel closer up and the other parts further back. Lastly I also used Direction and movement with all the individual pieces of hair to really add detail and make the image pop..
