mas arte

well i was going to post some more pictures, but currently i am having difficulties in uploading them onto firefox because it is being ridiculously slow. so i will describe them in order.

1. We have the ink-shaped booklet. On each page there is one shape that is outlined but painted completely black. This project was assigned to demonstrate use of line, and shape. We focused on implied shapes, definite shapes and so on.



Memory
2. The next project i did was on a distinct memory. We were only allowed to use ink, graphite, artist tape, and paper. During the time i was working on this, i was going through a painful relationship and created an abstract piece entitled "Hope". i used ink splatters to release my emotions physically while i recalled the repressed memories.






3. The third project was eaves dropping and recreating it through using text as art. I used my stencils to achieve this goal...even though that wasn't what the professor wanted.


Wood
4. The next project was a charcoal piece. We were asked to take a picture of the side of a building and redraw it with charcoal. I photographed the side of my house (which is an old-wooden-cabin-type-thing) and drew and erased and drew and erased until i was satisfied. I was quite proud of this piece because i achieved the intended texture that i desired.







5. For the following project we were asked to find an object that would not be normally viewed as art. The reason for doing this was to show that beauty could be found in essentially everything. I brought in a flat, dirty rock and a napkin that i had used in a sushi restaurant and later wrote directions on.
