art show

unfortunately, i don't have any new artwork to display because we are working on a project that will take 3 weeks to complete, THEN i will post it. until then, i'd like to notify that there will be a Delta Sigma Theta Art of Poetry show held at UTDallas Student Union April 21, 2008 from 7p.m to 9p.m and i will be entering the Thank You for Smoking art piece. this will be like a double whammy for me considering that this is the sorority i really am dying to become a part of and i will be showing off my talent there. hopefully i will have some pictures from the show that i can post on here for you all to see :-)

we worked on contour drawings this saturday. this first picture was supposed to be a quick drawing of someone else in our class. she only gave us 1 minute to complete it though (i think that my drawing could have been a lot better if she had given us more time.

the second picture was another quick sketch of some pottery. i honestly think that this week was a bit boring because we were mainly doing practice drawings but there is nothing wrong with showing off my work :-)

to make up for not posting anything last week, i found another speed painting video on youtube.com. one of the first ones that i have ever seen and which also got me into the whole speed painting thing. when i finally purchase the photoshop program, im going to do create a few of them myself. enjoy! (this one is john locke from "Lost")

this week in my art class, we learned about perspective. nothing difficult but still relevant to understand. we first drew pictures of boxes stacked on top of each other and sketch them out as practice. we actually did several of these before we had to get to a bigger project.







after several practice perspectives, we had to sketch out our school hallway. (of course we didnt get every single detail of what was in the hall such as statues and lockers). we only had to get the gist of perspective and how to view it.
