{SKETCHBOOK}

These sketches were my first sketches of the class. They were exploratory and random. I think I did well here by involving different line types, shading, textures, and subjects.

{SKETCHBOOK}

These sketches include 2 add replacements and

our scale/perspective sketch. I feel these are

my best sketches in achieving the project

goals and using creativity to find a

unique solution.

SKETCHES

THUMBNAILS {MY PROCESS}

To the left are the matte painting thumbnails where I used an action figure as the main subject and created backgrounds to chose from. Below are the thumbnails for UBS where I had more freedom to chose my subject for the thumbnails. I provided a variety of choices for each project.

Below are the thumbnails for AWTTF

where I had to incorporate me in the

drawing. I had to try to incorporate a great sense of vertical or horizontal line and

something from the stories. I tried to

provide many options for each object so I had a

lot to chose from

Week 1

AVATAR {AVATAR}

I wanted to create motion with my avatar. I also wanted to create a dramatic background, that is why I used such a dark back ground, to make the figure pop. I didn’t think that my non use of detail worked in the arm and body of the figure though.

Week 2

{PRODUCT} PRODUCT

I feel like this was my worst project

that I did in this class. I didn’t do the thumbnails correctly

and on the final, I didn’t get the

proportions right in the perspective .

Though, I did do the stippling correctly

according to the light source.

Week 3

{UNTOLD BEDTIME STORY} UBS FINAL

This project was one of my personal favorites. I

enjoyed picking the subject matter and also

working with watercolor for the first time. I used

pictures of ballerina shoes and theater curtains for

reference to get the perspective and lighting

and shadows correct.

Week 4

{A WALK THROUGH THE FORREST} AWTTF

For the final I changed the trees back to more cartoon looking with the trees and trunks from the rough. I added shading underneath the trees and towards the bottom of the trunks since the lighting is coming from the tops of the trees.

Week 5

{MATTE PAINTING} MATTE FINAL

This project was a little tricky because my action figure was leaning from the right so I had to create a background that she could lean out from. I chose Harley Quinn from batman. She was also carrying a cupcake bomb so I incorporated that into my design as well. I had a hard time with the shadowing.

Week 6

{STUDENT CHOICE} SC

I decided to take the product project and redo it. I chose the

hello kitty doll instead of the piggy bank and I chose an

interesting position by sitting it on my dresser and looking

up at it while a flash light pointed down at the doll.
