This was our first try at using charcoal. Like most things it took some getting used to. What made it hard for me was that once you touched a line it was significantly lighter than it was before which made it really hard to get darker values. I really like how it turned out. This project was interesting because it wasn't really a drapery so it is hard to tell from the picture if you hadn't known that already.
Paint night! Well more like paint couple days in a row. To start this project we painted all of our pieces of paper bright red then followed the instructions on the board that Mrs. Haggerty had given us. Next we used chalk to draw the shapes of our pears and then painted them with warm yellow. We learned techniques to make the paint blend together like the yellow green to born that happened on the right side, and also the high light on the left side. For the background colors it took a couple layers of paint to make it really dark like the way I wanted. Who doesn't like a good paint squish image?For Christmas my parents bought me a huge art portfolio and kit. It came with and easel oil, acrylic and water color paints, colored pencils, graphite pencils, oil and chalk pastels and paint brushes. I was really excited and opened it immediately. The package was huge and I had no clue what it was going to be, let alone I didn't realize it was hiding behind the tree until Christmas Eve. For the rest of break I would drew until like midnight. First I drew some eyes using a tutorial I found on Pinterest. Next I worked on Princess Bubblegum from Adventure time. Lastly I drew some hair while watching High School Musical # on Disney Channel.
