Quarter 3 Art

Introduction

After completing the drawings assigned, I realized that the hardest drawings were the ones involving people. For example both self portraits and the life size drawing was really hard because I've never been good at drawing human characteristics on paper. So when drawing eyes, nose(s),  and eye brows on my pictures, I thought it was very difficult. But other than the "human" drawings. I found everything else fairly easy. My favorite drawing was the hand, which was our first project because it was the only piece where I drew basic shapes and started to construct life like hands from there. The shapes I had drawn were 5 rectangles to represent each finger and the thumb, and triangle to represent the palm. I think I was successful at drawing the details in my pieces. For example in one of my drawings I drew shadows of standing objects. Having a drawing a week helped me a lot  with my over all progress because I noticed that I was able to be more accurate and precise when drawing lines and shapes. I don't think the teacher should have done anything different but allow the students to pick what they wanted to draw just to have more variety. I don't think I could have done anything differently but pick different pieces to draw.

Inspiration: Leanardo DaVinci

I chose to do my project about Leanardo DaVinci because when I think of art, my initial reaction is Leanardo DaVinci's pieces. His work(s) of art are a mystery until this day and I find that very interesting.

​Mona Lisa: Mona Lisa is one of Leanardo DaVinci's  most famous works of art. No one knows who the woman in the picture is supposed to portray. Historicist guess that the picture is of Leanardo DaVinci's wife. The interesting aspect about Mona Lisa is that no one knows if she's smiling or if it's her natural facial expression.
