selfie

Today we were told to draw a selfie that we took. I enjoyed this because it was a challenge and I had a lot of extra time today because I didn't have much work. I hope we can go back to school soon because I miss seeing my friends but we will see. Here are both pictures side by side. They are not identical but I think I did a pretty good job recreating it!

Today was a very calm day because it was rainy so I just chilled inside due to the rain. I enjoyed doing this soda can. At first, it was very difficult and I was about to start over but as I added more highlights and shadows, it began to look more like a crushed soda can and less like a blob. This is my final product and I liked how we were instructed to put a pastel background. I found it is more pleasing to look at and I'm happy with how it turned out.

day 6

Today we were assigned to draw a shell. I really enjoyed this because it reminded me of the beach and how much I want to be back at the beach. My cyber day went pretty good today! I felt very relaxed and I was really glad I decided to do my artwork at the end of the day today because it gave me more time to focus on just art. I decided to put a lot of detail in it and I love the turnout!




 

day 5

Finally Friday! I have had so much work to do it feels like this week. I'm glad week one is over and I finished my in the bag pastel today. Today was so nice out so I decided to work outside! I am hoping cyber school gets better as time passes!

day 4

Today is Thursday and I finished my bag sketches today. I didn't know that we were going to have to wake up at 7 am because I haven't had to for any of my other classes. Mr. Durkin sent an email before cyber days begun saying that we would receive a 24-hour notice if we needed to wake up early for the class we have. Also, I plan out my drawings to do art in the middle of the day because it helps me get a break between my school work. This is why I didn't think we would have to wake up early because I don't usually do art in the mornings because I am not much of a morning person. Here are my 4 drawings of the bag and a picture of me in JC gear.

day 2

Today I started my bag and I decided to work outside because it was really nice and sunny. I didn't really enjoy drawing the bag because I found it wasn't something that I would prefer to draw. Today is St. Patricks day and my brother's birthday so we were still able to celebrate without really being able to go anywhere. And my zinger painting is finished! Here is a picture of my brother with his new green shoes to celebrate!
