AP Art

This past 2 weeks, i've really been getting into still lifes. I honestly love drawing them and putting the pieces into your own perspective. Such as making the certain object bigger, smaller, up close view and so fourth. I've always been decent at copying still lifes in Mrs. Bjorks class and turning them into my own perspective so this past week i made my own and they turned out to be really impressive. Im so excited for school to start so i can really get into new art and work with other types of utensils. This summer has gone by so fast and im sad its coming to an end but this year will be a good challenge for me and im really excited! Im trying to post all my photos to flickr right now :P

4Rt!

This summer has gone by so fast! its crazzzyyy! So as i've been looking at the art sites and really trying to figure out what portfolio i wanted to do, alot of online work has inspired me. I wish I had the media and all the utensils im sure my other classmates had but from what i've looked at and done, im gonna need lots and lots of practice!

Nauvoo Trip

About a week ago I got the opportunity to go to Nauvoo, IL to spend 5 days there to explore the town were the pinoneers once were. This was a church trip and it was just an amazing experience. They had many paintings in the building where we toured and lots of them inspired me. One picture I took really inspired me because of the stroke of the pen they used. Its a very detailed piece and the stroke marks are left there. The work ive been doing lately is furniture. There was lots of olden time furniture like fire places, beds, cabnets, old jails and so fourth in Nauvoo and I had some time to sketch what i saw and take pictures so I could go back to my work.
