Facial Feature- Speak

This is a magnified look at lips. I drew a partially opened lips that show a glimpse of teeth. the lips are full and still in black and white. I wanted to focus on shading so I shaded the cupid's bow of the lip and all the creases to give a more realistic look. this is named Speak because it is the moment before one would speak.

Prospective Art- Pocahontas themed

The theme of this was Pocahontas, in the movie, "colors of the wind" was my favorite song and scene out of every Disney movie. I made her a white silhouette to offset the colorful theme. It was made out of several types of paper to give a textured look as well.

Stop Motion- Bear Down

This stop motion displays what its like to receive an acceptance letter for college. University of Arizona was my top choice and it was relieving to finally get accepted. This takes you throughout the months of waiting and shows the excitement of that moment when you get a big "Bear Down"package.

Year of Mercy- Water

The year of mercy is the year of forgiveness. This picture was taken at a beach and the water reminds me of Mercy. Water cleanses the world and makes all things pure again. It does the same thing as Mercy does. Mercy keeps things pure and washes away all sins. When we ask forgiveness from God we ask him to have Mercy on us. Water and Mercy goes hand in hand.

Conceptual Art- Lively

This art was conceptual as in what this word means to us. I chose a football game for lively. Lively for me means very energetic and full of people showing enthusiasm for something. In this picture the crowd shows their pride by wearing 49er gear and are cheering on their team at the home field. The crowd was vibrant and the picture captures all the people showing support and liveliness for the 49er team.

Naked Pop Art

This project was taking something small and magnifying it. We decided to make a Naked Palette. The container was made of a cardboard box with paint all over it. We painted the entire box besides the mirror. The mirror is made of foil. The box is able to open and close just like a real naked palette. The colors had to careful be blended to match the Naked 3 palette eyeshadow design. This project took us about 2- 3 weeks to complete and we thought we were very successful with the construction and painting of the project. 

Night & Day Notan Art

This art is supposed to be very contrasted. So I thought about what really was contrasting, which is night and day. I cut out sun rays and stars. I removed some of the sticker and placed it on opposite sides. On one side there is a sun with a star in the middle and more stars on the inside of the white. On the other side there is a moon with sun rays surrounding it and white star in the middle and on the outskirts of the sundays. This gave a great look on both a contrasting theme and contrasting colors.

Water Color Volcano

In this project I painted a volcano with water colors. I tried to color the entire paper with a dark sky and dark brown volcano then a light colored lava spewing from the top. To complete this project I blended a lot of colors and for a textured look for the volcano I put salt on the paper then proceeded to paint over the salt. After I painted the paper I wanted a more real effect. So I splattered yellow, red, and orange all over the paper to make the lava look more live.
