2D Artist Reflection

I learned a lot of new things this semester. Like how to edit pictures, do a collage, and look at different artists and what kind of art work they liked to do. One of my favorite things this semester was the Masters Study. I liked it because I got to look at different artists I didn't even know about & made their art my own. I also liked doing the collage piece, but I was kinda lazy with it. But if I took more time on it, I think it could have turned out really cool. I didn't like doing the photo editing thing, because I don't like editing photos & I din't really understand the point of it. I enjoyed using more of the materials we used last semester. I had fun taking an art class, and would like to do it again next year. I'd like to take advanced art next year. Now that I learned how to use all these techniques I have some good ideas I could use in that class. I would like to use more materials such as; pastels, just more things on paper, maybe paint.

Pop Art

I chose to do pop art by Andy Warhol. The tools I used were sharpie marker, pencils & hot glue & scissors. I liked doing pop art, but I would have liked to spend a little more time doing maybe a cooler subject. I liked how you could choose something simple and make it into something big. If I could go back & change something about this I would have used different colors, or something other than sharpie, like paint or pastels.

Collage Picture

I made a collage of a tree. using things such as string, pastels, buttons & beads. I wish I would have taken more time & used it more wisely cause I actually had a really cool idea for this project, but since I didn't use my time wisely I had to make it really quickly. It actually turned out kind of cool. If I were assigned to do a collage again, I would do more of a collage of pictures & magazines.

Surrealism Painting

This is my surrealism painting I really like how it turned out. I used paint to paint this painting with. If I could go back and change it I would have taken more time to actually do it. I like how it turned out though. I used paint brushes.

Pointilism Painting

I made a pointillism painting of an elephant. I used paint & hard brushes & a colored pencil to make my painting. I really liked doing this painting, because it was actually really fun, & it didn't take too long to do. If I could go back & change something about this drawing I would have taken a little more time on the back round. I am really satisfied of how it turned out though.

Square by Square Painting

This is my square by square painting. I had to draw out all the squares. I drew out the tree, then I mixed paints & painted all the squares. I really did not like this painting, because it took to much time & it's really not my thing. If I could fix anything I would take more time doing it.
