Nutella

I think this painting looks ten times better in person.

things i would change- the white of the plate in the back blends into the back ground. The Nutella jar label is not as good as it started off, before I added the name. The one main thing i learned from this project was to never make a pile of anything chocolate, it turns out looking like crap, literally.

This is not one of my favorite projects that i have done. I wish i would have worked a little more on it.

Cheers to that.

For this project we did the image transfer. At first I did a picture of Sacre-Coeur but it started looking pretty bad. I decided to find a new picture I took while in Paris and I wanted a focal point. I like how this picture turned out compared to the first one. I wish i could change the stripes on the table. The darkest stripe looks really bad compared to the others.

I put this into the Fall into the Arts show at school and I thought it would break, with my luck. I was right, it did break. I wish i could have gotten a picture of it before it broke.

With the broken picture I might try to break it more and rearrange it. I don't know how that will turn out so I might not do it.

I did not like this lesson at first. I guess i just wasn't inspired by my original book pages that were on the board. After i got the pink down on the board i did start to like it more. I would go back and change the blue hat somewhat shows through. I also wish i made a regular oval for the pendant. I made it the shape of the girls face to mirror it but i think it just looks like i couldnt make an oval. I like how the picture on the bottom looks so thats the only reason i put it up.

Ballet Shoes



I really enjoyed drawing with motion. A few changes I would make would be to make it less white. The flooring looks to be the same color as the motion feet, I wish it was a little darker. I also wish I would have made the second foot motion (the one pointed to the ground) a little darker than the first leg motion. For some reason the pink in the picture is not as pink as the actual drawing is, that is the other thing I would change. I am very proud of myself for being able to draw this. I just showed it to my dance teacher and she loves it. I'm scared to see what my ballet teacher will think, he is hard to please but maybe he will like this as well.

My Charcoal on Matt Board



I have mixed feelings about this drawing. I love the flower in the glass jar, yet i do not like the glass. I wish I would have had more time to add detail to the table and make the glass of the bottle and the glass of the jar look more like glass.
