Music Forever

I found this picture of a guitar with some flowers and some really cool designs so I thought what the heck, why not try to sketch this. As I started I thought I wouldn't be able to accomplish this. But by the end I did. I took alot of time on this project and made it look really good. I enjoyed doing this project, also I would've liked to continue with another project like this but I didn't have time to make another project like this. I really liked doing this project.

Oil Pastels

On this project I thought about how I could get the butterfly to be the main focus. The butterfly makes the flower pop out in the background. The only thing I think that I should've changed was the use of materials. Like I think that if I didn't use oil pastels that this could have turned out better. I had to be really careful with the oils because of the chance of mixing or smearing the other colors. I didn't think that this would turn out as good as it had but I'm glad that it did.

Finding Nemo


Just Keep Swimming! I was inspired to do this project because I love watching Finding Nemo. This project took quite awhile to complete. I enjoyed doing this project because it was my first really good project. I think that I did an good job on it but yet I could've done more details to this. If I could redo this project I would make Dorie's skin one color. The light blue looks faded in some areas but they project still turned out to be better than I thought.

Cat After the Fish

My overall thoughts on this project was that I enjoyed creating this drawing. I liked to make the cat look like it was going after the fish in the tank. The only hard thing was to shade the cat to make it look like it was a real cat. If I could redo this project I htink that I would make it so the cat was looking into the fish tank instead of looking at us.

Heart

My thoughts on this project was to make an abstract heart that would catch your eyes. While doing this piece it was really hard to make sure you didn't paint the wrong diamond the wrong color. For making the heart I used tissue paper and glued them to the board by using a pencil to help it get the affect of it popping out. My overall thoughts on this heart was that I did a really good job on this piece as well. I think that the heart had turned out as good as I thought it would.

Scooby Doo!!

My overall thoughts on this project was that I did a really good job. I never thought that I could have drawn all the characters for Scooby-Doo. The only hard part about drawing this was when I drew out Scooby I had to make sure everyone else lined up to him. Sometimes I had drawn the chacaters either too thin, too fat, too short or too tall. If I could re-do this project I think I would make it so I only drew one of the character and I would just put a lot of detail into it. I believe this is a great piece that I did.

Live. Laugh. Love.



My overall thoughts on this painting was good. I really like this project. I think that I could have made it a better piece but it was done well on the time I spent on it. I thought of this idea because I like the saying live, laugh and love. My plan was to try to have it done before Christmas so I could give it to my mother, but it was not complete before than. I liked this project because I used my own ideas and gave it a personal look. The bad part about this was the white lines, or the swirls, they weren't a complete bold white swirl. If I was to do this project over again I would make sure I took more time and thought on the piece. The worst part about trying to complete this was just having a time limit that I put myself on. I should have spent more time on each detail I put into this art piece.
