$K!TTL3 M0$@!C (In the Making)

This first image is me working on my mosaic. At this point, it really doesn't look like anything besides a bunch of little skittles.

I'm getting further along with the skittling. From where I was sitting I felt like it still looked like a bunch of mixed up colors but it took me standing up and from a distance to realize that it was slowly starting to look like my face.

The mosaic is actually starting to resemble my face as I skittle more and more!

This is how far I've gotten so far. Finishing the eyes definitely made a difference in the appearance of my mosaic. I'm pretty happy with how it's turning out so far, and I'm really eager to see how the finished product will look. Until then, EVERY DAY I'M SKITTLING! lolz.

Shading Portrait

This is the shading portrait I made of a girl in my class, Sarah. I actually really enjoyed doing this project and will maybe even continue to make art like this again on my own. When Mr.Sands first told us about this I was a little iffy about how mine would come out. I have never considered myself an artist, at all, but I was definitely very pleased with how it came out. I don't think I had ever created an image that included shading in it and this is something that I for sure learned from this project. Overall, not too shabby.

SHADOW ART #awwwyeahhh

 This first picture is the rocket ship/outer space scenery in the making. My group, which included Bri and Lauren, used string to hang out "trash" and make it look as if it were flying. It was pretty fun seeing what shapes could be made out of just some pieces of junk. I was pretty pleased with the final product; it definitely was not as bad as I thought it would be!

expressive photo (skittle colors)

This is my super cute expressive photo in skittle colors. Mr.Sands said that he was a little worried about how it would work out, so I might have to make come color adjustments. Oops. Anyways, hopefully the skittle project will come out pretty gnarly. Pics will follow.

Masking Tape Project

My group- aka Team of the Future- used masking tape to create the illusion of the path to your future. We used the typical things people look for in their future such as graduation, getting a job and earning money from it, buying a house, and eventually getting married. We used cross hatching to make our hills seem more alive and to show distance.
