My Artwork

My dot did not turn out well. I don't think I used enough force when I was coloring, because the color did not bleed as much as it was supposed to. I think it was a fun project, it just did not turn out well for me.

I enjoyed this project. You cannot see it, but I chose a lion to draw with the blue pencil. I did a series of triangles, circles, and squiggles as a pattern to hide the lion. I struggled to know how much to add to the pattern, but I think it worked out well.

This is my footprint. I added the letters LHS in my high school colors because I think high school shaped the person I am today. I put a rugby ball because I played in high school and it is my favorite sport. The space needle is on my footprint because I was born in Washington and it is where I consider home. The blue star is the Dallas Cowboys logo because I am a die-hard cowboys fan. The compass is supposed to represent my love and desire for traveling. Lately, I picked the yellow background because it is my favorite color.

Some of my photographs were taken here in Aberdeen. I do not like my photos that I took here because I did not capture what I wanted to. I took most of the other ones in Chicago. I like these ones very much. I took them with a professional camera and I think they look much more professional. 

I struggled with this project. Getting the paper to lay down flat was something I struggled with. My horizon was supposed to be mountains and the background was supposed to be be northern lights. I went with shades of blue and green to try to make it seem like the state of Washington, particularly Seattle.

For this project, we learned how to create art using oil pastels. We used different techniques to make different patterns. I struggled with using different forces for different techniques. I find that I write and draw with a lot of force and do not notice it.
