Sea turtle

With this project we learned how to make something look real with paint. You had to know what would come off the paper and want would go on the paper. You had to look for animals that wouldn’t have hair or something hard to show texture because it would be hard to show. I went with a sea turtle because it looked like it would be east to draw and something that would look good as a finished product. Every part of the project took time and you had to put more detail into it. As I started to draw the turtle I saw that it wouldn’t be I easy as I thought it would be because of the shell it was hard to get the shell right and when cutting it, it was hard to tell what would be coming off the paper until you started to cut stuff out. When you put the paint on you had to make sure there wasn’t too much or so little. Once I got done with the whole thing I was happy with what I needed up with.

Frog Tongue


Today we worked with a mouth with the tongue sticking out and then we made a frog look like it was part of the tounge. We had to take the frog that was green and make it look it was always a part of the tongue. We had to clone a part of the tongue so that we could put it on the frog to cover up the green and also so that it looked apart of the tongue. With every step you had to take your time because it was hard to get every step right. If you did on wrong thing you wouldn’t know what to do next.

Pancake in Photoshop

Today we used Photoshop to make pancakes with a mouth. We learned how to make a picture look bigger so we could put a picture in the jaws. We learned how to take part of the phone out and to change the color of the picture to make it look part of the picture we already had. This was helpful to use when we want to put to pictures together that you wouldn't think to put together.

stencil project

For the last week in art we have been working on a stencil project. We had to find a picture and turn it into a stencil. We then made big stencils out of the picture. When we cut them out we then had to spray paint them in different colors to card board. The problem I had was I wasn’t looking at everything that went into it. When I got to the last color I saw that the color was going to cover everything that I had already done so I had to start over. Once I got everything done then I had a good stencil project and you could see the image that you had on the paper. I learned that you need to take your time and look at what you are doing before you do it. You have to understand that you I will get it done but you have to take time. This was a good project to do because it was the first time that we did something other than just draw.
