21 Drawings

Here, is my final 21 drawings. I have applied numerous techniques in each and every peice. I have even tried doing one blindfolded.

 for this one i used a sandpaper circle, colored it with pastels, cut it into quarters and used pastel color for the background

 For this piece i used the pint, criss crossed the lines and put a layer of tracing paper over the top

 I used paints, pastels, and black chalk. i used glue and then ripped the page a bit to add more effect. this was a 10 minute process of non stop drawing

 I used various paint colors and tape. I dipped the paintbrush into the paint and flicked it onto the page to add a background.

 For this piece I used the paints and a lot of tracing paper folded around the edges.

 Again, I used a dull sandpaper  circle and created a sort of sun effect.

 For this one I burned the sides and created in the form of a flame and used wave-like stripes of blue and red paint to make violet.

 I used various paint colors and used the very tip of the paintbrush to create the deep red/ maroon color on the side.

 My class abstract drawing. I based this off of one of the balsa wood art pieces and used big puddles of paint and pastels.

 For this work I combined nearly all of the paint colors besides brown, black and white. I used the shape sponges to create the effects

 For this one I made 4 semicircles. With some semi-circular spaced and full lines. I used pastels around it to add a sort of ora of light coloring.

 For this work I mixed many colors of paint. i crushed the pastels and grinded them together and put tape over the top. This created sort of a flag-like form. With a slight pig's tail on the end

 I used only a single color. I chose orange because of eh fact that is my favorite color. I think its a nice color as well as the fact that it is unique because nothing rhymes with it. I used splashes of paint and pastels. Again I flicked the paint onto the paper. I also made drops onto the paper and tilted the paper to different sides and blew the paint different ways. I based this off of my bed from Gregor's room; as you may be able to see I started it from the little rectangle in the middle of the picture.

 My abstract drawing for 10 minutes

 I used 90% tape and pastels. It looked sort of like a boat at first.

 For this one I put tape and squares around the paper at first used all the pastel colors and then took the tape off at the end.

 I burned this paper. I crinkled it up, then soaked it in violet paint.

This is my blind drawing. I must have used blue and green paint and somehow made a tornado like figure with the white pastel

This was the tape and squares from one of my previous drawings. I made a black and white background and flicked white paint on the black background and vice versa. Then the colorful tape and squares I put over the top. It came out pretty good

FInal 3d - 2d photo

- This is my final 3d-2d image creation.
- I simply found the background that i wanted first. I chose this sky like background because I thought my bed for Gregor in Metamorphosis. Number one, its up in the sky and for me that represents heaven, and i chose to portray it this way because of all the hell that Gregor was going through I figured I can put him up in a better place. Nothing to it; just being creative.
- I played around with the opacity a bit
- I used the clone, and pattern tool to try to make it camouflage a bit with they rocky background.
- I chose to put this on the rocky background because it represented Gregor when he was changing.
*The picture was also supposed to come out with a sort of green color saturation. I chose the green because when I looked up meaning of colors;
*green was the color of life.
* And because Gregor died, I wanted to try to reverse that by using green.
I used specific symbols because of my sympathy for Gregor

Notes on Metamorphosis

Focal Points:
Color: red, yellow--> sales paper, dirt color--> color of the room, lots of greys -- room and hospital across the street.

Testure: rough, grimy texture, smooth because of round beetle-like back and he couldnt hold on to things/ no real grip to get up
* Things h often thought of and how he said them were both "soft"
* Sandpaper/ bumpy road

His sister: Soft pastel colors: hard lines
* Shapes: round; rectangular shape

- Scale changed from big human-sized beetle
- As the story drags on I'm not sure if Gregor was getting bigger or smaller. but if you put it in that perspective it was like his world was getting smaller because he lived only in his room...Deteriorating
- He received bad food, bad treatment, being a burden,  impossible to try to be happy when you're in an environment that "sucks" basically so everything including Gregor's mental condition and physical condition just got much worse as the time went on.
