Weekly Challenge 3

For my third weekly challenge I changed the media of a painting I did of a tree and a meadow, I changed them to a dark and stormy version inspired by Halloween and then one that looks like glitter glue on  black construction paper.

Digital Art 2 Favorites

Here is a collection of some of my favorite pieces from Digital Art 2 from last year:

Mini Concentration on plastic pollution in oceans and rivers

Framing

Randomidity: Snakes, Tattoos, and Hair  

Panorama 

Product Design logo

Product Design: Wet suit 1

Ephemeral Art 

Design Project 1

This was my first Design project as well as my first multimedia project of this school year. I chose to draw a centipede on wood pieces which are on two metal textile pieces. I painted in warm colors to represent the actual colors of a real centipede because i kept the drawing in pencil void of any other colors.

Weekly Challenge 2

My weekly challenge was Fashion Photography, and so I decided to do three different outfits with one model to create unity within my three pictures. I had another friend of mine as the fashion consultant to help me pic out the out fits which were inspired by my closet. I used my snake Milo in the first picture as a prop to create a more dramatic picture, and I think they turned out well for never doing fashion photography before.

Weekly Challenge 1

My weekly challenge was to evoke the color red, without using it! I was inspired by one of my favorite movies, 127 hours and book Between a Rock and a Hard Place, where Aron Ralston gets his right arm trapped under a boulder and is forced to cut it off himself to survive. The red is evoked through the detached arm and the blue blood dripping from the top of the piece and also through the emotions that I felt while reading the book.

September Goals

My goals for this month:
1. I will enter at least one  of the art contests from the blog by the end of the month.
2. I will be shooting my first senior session for a friend on the 14th, so I'm hoping for great lighting and even better weather.
3. To complete two or more of my concentration pieces by the 25th.

Sun Prints

For my Sun prints I struggled a little bit trying to to get the darkest transparency as possible, the printer and I were not collaborating well. In the end I had to complete the project at home with an Inkjet printer which doesn't actually allow the ink to dry and so I had to be a little creative with my transparency. In the end I used some little plastic animals to make the desired shadows.
