Artist Statement_ Jaccar Garcia

Posted by Jaccar Garcia in Advanced Art - Hull on Sunday, November 6, 2011 at 10:26 am

For this quarter we had to create to different projects. We made a life sized drawing of a student in our class and had 4 hours to work on it as well as we did with a another drawing we had to make of a glass object and make it look as real as we could. For our life sized drawing we had to make it as detailed as possible. Starting off with lines where we thought possible parts of the body were and working off from there. I believe I could have put a bit more effort into the life-sized drawing or tried working more on how to draw a face. For my glass drawing I used a beaker and may I say I’m very proud of that art piece.

 

            For my glass drawing we had to find the object with in the paper. It was in there somewhere and we had to dig for it. Using charcoal make my drawing made it easier to fade, erase, darken, ect. When I started my drawing I didn’t realize there was more then just the outline and seeing an object from an outer black line, but that nothing in real life has a black line. This makes me need to find a way to show the object with making a black line around it; this realization made me a stronger artist. I used paper towel to smooth out my drawing and be able to find my drawing more. Then I had to capture the shadow and the reflections from the light. While I analyzed the beaker I noticed so much. Its all about shading, darkening, and showing the different highlights which makes the object real instead of cartoon.

Rugeiatu Bah ​ Overview of Assigned Project

Posted by Rugeiatu Bah in Advanced Art - Hull on Friday, November 4, 2011 at 7:42 am


This quarter you have studied how to draw a clear object of a glass  in a 3D model using art skills.  You learned about the different ways you have to draw the picture depending on where you draw the picture from. The angles matters, because it is what you see, not what you think. I drew this picture using black charcal and a white even sides paper. I started of thinking about the clear object that I wanted to draw, the object that could best fits my skills towards art. I shaded the entire paper light with the charcal. However, I shaded the middle darker and rub it with a paper towel to lightly the shade. I first started with a circle, one on top and one at the bottom. I realize that the object wasn't a circle drawing figure therefore it would be hard to translate the image on the paper. After drawing my model, I beings to transform it, from a 2D model to a 3D model. I drew the light reflection. The parts that are light, I took an erase and erase the top and sides and I added shadows of my object and erase some parts of the object it self to show that the object is a clear drawing.

Still Life Drawing By Isabela Aznar

Here are some Photos of My still life drawings that we did in Advanced Art. The project description was basically to Sketch a live model for about 4 hours, (or about 4 class periods) using a large piece of paper, charcoal, and Pastels.

Clear Drawing

Posted by Olivia Smith in Advanced Art - Hull on Thursday, November 3, 2011 at 2:47 pm

For this project we had to draw a clear or glass object for about 2 hours. This was a very hard task seeing that you have to take into consideration that the lighting reflects from all angles.

Still life. Full body.

For this assignment we had to draw a full sized person for roughly 4 hours. During this time we were looking at a student of the class that was model for us to draw. This project was very straight forward and had a simple direction plan but was very challenging to accomplish. I was able to figure out the rough estimate of the proportions but the detail and flow of the picture was very rigorous.

​Here I have my figure drawing and my clear object:

Figure Drawing

For the figure drawing, there were a lot of things that I took into consideration when I was drawing her. For of all, I had never done something of this size, so I had to make sure that my proportion were right. Secondly, I took the vibe of the model (Jamie) and tried to put it on the paper. When I looked at her, I got a bubbly yet undertone seriousness from her, so I tried to make her pose look as feminine and relaxed as possible, but the seriousness come in with her neck. For the most part, her neck was very stern, (not to the point where her muscles were visible) but enough where some shading was necessary. As for the choice of colors working with pastels was very different to me, but I just tried to match them with the color of the clothes that she was wearing that day (black skinnies) but the shirt was a different color, so I went with a light red color. To me, it looked very nice against her blond/orange hair. My favorite part drawing her hair. It was layered enough to where I could give is a spiked look, which gave me more flexibility with highlighting certain parts. Each strand was outlined with a darker shade of orange, while the crown was a more mixed with light yellow and peaches- from this, I wanted the hair to appear shinier. As for her body, she had a very petite figure, which was something that I had no problem drawing. She is more slender then curvy, so keeping her shape to more of an unexaggerated pear was key my goal. Basically, I kept her shape to more of a teenager, than one that was too mature and inaccurate. Overal, I felt very confident with this drawing. Even though it was larger is size, I feel as though I portrayed the model as I saw her. I draw people and I like to portray a specific emotion when I do so, and for this drawing, I hoped to show a relaxed and bubbly personality that I saw in her. The main difference from this and my own work is that I am a manga-baed style, and still made me think to try more of semi-realism. While her face has a less realistic appeal, I believe that her body shape was more on point.   
Clear Object
I thoroughly enjoyed making this clear object drawing. First of all, I got to use my favorite medium of all time: 0.7 mm MECH PENCIL! It's my love really. Also, I got to incorporate the use of charcoal, which is something that I'm not very used to,but I was able to use it to be best abilities for this project. I started with choosing the beaker, mainly because it was the first glass that I saw. My first thought was to draw a window, more a rainy scene that portrayed a certain feeling, but I instead went with the beaker because it's new to me. When we watched the video on how to draw a clear object, I liked the technique except for the fact that there was no scene to it. In my head, I couldn't draw this inanimate object without some sort of background. To me, there has to be a place for an object to be set in. So, I first just drew the outline of the beaker from my view, (somewhat of a top/frontal view). I did a really weird thing but shading the mid-tone AFTER I drew the outline of the beaker. Starting with a mid-tone just didn't feel right to me. Afterwards, I starting finding the darker spots to be shading and starting to erase at certain reflections of light on the beaker. After this, I decided to draw the tabe that I was working on (also from my perspective). I then used the shading of the table and set that is my new mid-tone. It made sense to me because seeing through the beaker means that I'd have a skewed vision of the color of the table. I made sure to erase lightly enough that each line across the table wasn't defined, but still visible. Overal, I feel that this was a huge success, because I just wanted to portray a gloomy mood from the loneliness of the beaker, and I think with the dusty grey affect, it got across pretty well.
