Double Page Spread


Double Page Spread - Dream Board

For this project. we had to create goals for this upcoming year or even the next upcoming decade. My double page spread includes black and white media with the goals of traveling, learning, stop-stressing, and eating healthier. I could have incorporated more, but my sketchbook actually had fallen apart before I got the chance to add more. 

Sketches




Sketches

These are a few sketches I completed in the course of this semester. It also includes one of the value projects we had completed when we had to recreate half of a portrait. 

2-Point Perspective


2-Point Perspective 

For this piece, the requirements were to complete a 2 point perspective. I chose to do a bird house with minimum detail in the background. I used black and white, but I focused mainly on the foreground with the house rather than taking time on the background with the tree and bird. I think I achieved the 2 point perspective aspect, but I could've been more creative with design and detail. 

T-Shirt Design




T-Shirt Design

For the 2017-2018 Heritage Fine Arts Academy t-shirt, I decided to draw a design that incorporated all aspects of the academy with the exception of ceramics. It is a camera taking a picture of the winning design. Once again, I went with the black and white media because the requirements called for one color on the shirt. I think my design was creative and I don't think I would change much about it.

12" x 18" Dreamboard


Dream. 

In this piece, I incorporated objects from my dream board and created it into one piece. It was based on the idea of loving music and dreaming about traveling. It is very simplistic with a black and white media. I could have done more with detail and background, but I am satisfied with its outcome as of now. 

Portfolio Covers



Portfolio Cover

The two pictures above are my from the front and back of my portfolio for the 2017-2018 school year. I incorporated my name along with objects based on the ocean/sea theme. I chose to do this in black and white with shading pencils and a straight edge. I think my depth with the shading and the background could have been better since it is so simplistic, but I like my overall thought on the piece.

Pencil Plane 2.0



Pencil Plane 2.0

The goal of this piece was to take an everyday object and turn it into another device. I took a BIC  mechanical pencil and transformed it into a plane. I used shading and charcoal pencils along with a 24 inch ruler to complete this. I feel as if my shading could have been better, but overall I think this piece was one of my best if you consider the size and the aspect of shading.

Anchor Piece


This piece was one our teacher let us choose ourselves. I decided to go into black and white as my media and do an object. I tried to capture highlights and shadows throughout the piece.

Cat Portrait


In this project we were supposed to take human attributes and apply it to an animal or vis versa. Our art was supposed to consist of color and display a sense of realism. I took cat-like features and applied it to a human. It is complete as I did not want to add a body onto the piece.

The Metal Sun


This project focused on the process on metal tooling. I focused on making a sun and a moon as one. My goal was to establish lines for the paint to sink into and the creases in the metal to stand out as indentions.

Simplistic Food

This is my simplistic food drawing. I am entering this into the Dermatology Annual Art Contest. My art usually consists of shading with charcoal pencils, but I decided to just do the initial outline of the objects. My goal here was to incorporate many objects, of food, onto the piece with just the easy outline with a tad bit of detail into each.

The Reflective Lamp


I drew this lamp to portray a wide range of values and a distinct reflection. I am actually pleased with
this piece except I know it could be better.
