1. The first part of the art criticism process is describing what you see. Which means like what shapes and colors or even images you see in the artwork. The next part is analyzing the artwork. This is means to list the art elements and designs you see. Next. you interpret the artwork. This is your mood and ideas that are being told through the piece. Lastly, you judge the artwork(what do you think of it?). 2. Describe: In my piece I see a large cylinder, that is the bottle in my piece. I see lots of words describing the drink in the bottle. I see lots of different shadings. Analyze: When I analyze my piece, the bottle looks nice and flat and shiny, especially since I added a little box of light reflecting off the bottle at the top. I used different values to make the piece look more 3 dimensional, like in the shadow and the middle of the bottle. I can see the contrast on the bottle that really highlights the details on my artwork. The colors are very grayed and calm in some spots. Interpret: When I interpret the piece I feel like the mood is very neutral. When I look at the art, I actually feel very calm and conservative. There’s not much of a story behind this piece, we were just assigned to draw an object from the room and I chose this bottle. Judge: I actually really liked this piece and I do think it is successful. I just feel like it looks pretty realistic and I added enough different tones to create a 3D piece. The only thing I would've worked on more was maybe the shadow, I feel like it just looks kinda sloppy, but other than that I do think it was successful. 8. I think some problems artist may encounter when planning or making art could be simple problems such as no time to paint or lack of money for supplies, rent, etc. Other issues that could occur could be lack of support from family or friends, or more emotional troubles like trying to create something beautiful despite their feelings they have or their own problems their going through. I feel like lots of artists sacrifice their "visions" for other people's wants, which may not be their own. Artists could lose motivation or they may not be getting any sales on their art. I think the biggest problem out of all these though that artists face is, having a negative attitude or not accepting their art because they think it's not good enough. 13. Honestly, the hardest thing about this class was coming up with an idea for any project. This is because I was trying to be creative and come up with original ideas, but sometimes it was hard. I think the biggest way I could of solved this was to try and let go of being afraid of not making my piece perfect. I think I was just more consumed with making a piece that was perfect, than just thinking of any cool ideas to make, no matter how crazy or dumb they seemed. I wouldn't know what looked cool or not unless I tried it. 16. If I could re do any piece, I would probably redo my mixed medium piece. The only reason I would redo it is because I want to add better mediums instead of like just doing it on a plain piece of paper. I even wish I just made the piece like more 3D and incorporated my theme more into it. My theme was exercise, and I just feel like I could of done more with it, for example I could of added like different balls used in sports to the piece and create sorta like a border. Other than that, I don't think my piece was that bad, except also maybe just choose a different color scheme, I feel it didn't look as good as I thought.

The Process: I first drew the letters normal, like 2D. Next, I made all the letters bubble letters and I then gently traced where the shadows were based on the picture. Lastly, I filled in the shadows and I took a napkin, so I could smudge the shadows and make them more pronounced. Warm ups:1. I think the warm up that proved to be the most helpful was the eye warmup. I personally think that eyes are the main attraction of any person, and it helped to know how to draw them more realistically so they pop more. 2. I found the most surprising of the face proportions honestly the placement of the eyebrows and nose. It helped a lot looking at the eye for placements for the eyebrows without them looking unusual. Then for the nose, even though the nose can look relatively small, the placement and comparison proportions prove otherwise, which was surprising. Blog Post:1. I chose to draw a portrait of myself, mainly because I just know myself the best.
2. I just chose to be simple, so I used drawing paper and a pencil. 3. First, I drew the head shape and then I drew the eyes and all the details, along with that I also drew the eyebrows. Next, I decided to draw the nose and actually next I did the hair. After that, I shaded all the areas. Lastly, I drew and shaded the mouth, which was surprisingly hard for me. When I was all done, I went back and added even more details, especially in the hair area. 4. I found the eyes and the details to the eyes the most successful. What I really struggled with was trying to draw all the parts of my face and turn in slightly, because that was how I was in the picture I used. I would probably just change my head shape and probably the mouth if I were to redo this portrait. The head shape I just couldn't get right, and I couldn't turn the mouth the right angle while trying to keep it proportional. |
