I sketched out the woman and all the shards of glass then later traced this on my final paper.

This drawing is supposed to represent a mood of confidence. The glass is as if she is breaking through a hard time in her life and then regained her confidence. In this project, I discovered how much I love chalk pastel for skin! I feel I grew in my ability to draw proportionally, however, the thing I struggled with most was making my background interesting.

# data[].attributes.body
I fixed little things like her hairline, neck, and shoulders. After, I shaded in the background with chalk pasteles and outlined the glass to look three dimensional.

My Idea sketches

# data[].attributes.body
I had already sketched in everything and finished shading/coloring in the woman with chalk pasteles.

# data[].attributes.body
These were drawn with different colors of oil pasteles and are organized from first at the top to last at the bottom. From these drawings and the ones to the left, I improved by making my shading more detailed as well as paying attention to proportions such as the size of the skull.

This artwork is meant to represent the 'color' that lies within stories. This project pushed me out of my comfort zone a little because I had to think of how to draw the message I wanted to give. I most definitely learned from using colored pencil to shade her face. Because I used so many different colors, I really had to think about which colors would work to look properly shaded.

Projects Made When Students Were On The Botanic Field Trip

The materials I used for this were pencil and blending stubs. This project definitely came more 'naturally' to me because I am very familiar with realistic drawing and shading with pencils. However, I do feel I improved my technique by working hard to make the fabric look almost as if it is moving.

# data[].attributes.body
These drawings were done with pen. The first one is at the top, second is at the bottom, and last is to the right. These drawings were very fun for me and pushed me out of my comfort zone in the sense that I could not make the pen look blended and had to shade using lines.

Drawing from real life observation

This is my first drawing. We were learning about proportions

# data[].attributes.body
I added a black background (chalk pastel) as well as finished the newspaper side of the girl. I also shaded the black and white side with pencil and chalk. The light in the corner represents how books brighten our lives and able us to see our world better or in a new way.

I started gluing newspaper to opposite side of my drawing.

I began with sketching the woman with pencil then shaded the left side with colored pencil.

My finished product. To finish my artwork off, I shaded in the background and colored in the pole holding up the chairs.

# data[].attributes.body
In the middle stage of my artwork I began shading in the fabrics.

# data[].attributes.body
For the beginning stage of my artwork, I outlined the shape of the fabrics. I then started and completed the chairs.

# data[].attributes.body
These were for the chair unit as well and were taken in the auditorium.

These pictures were for the chair unit taken in the art room.

Organized from first (top) drawing to last (bottom). The medium for this was pencil. This practice helped me to pay attention to spaces I normally do not look to.

(Unfinished)

# data[].attributes.body
My first gesture is at the top and the last is at the bottom and was drawn with black chalk. From this unit, I learned how to draw quickly as well as use only what I see when drawing

(One artwork was missing)

Inspired by "There is beauty hidden in everything". The medium for this project was acrylic paint, gesso, and cardboard. This project pushed me out of my comfort zone because it was so open-ended and I usually work with just portraits. That said, I feel I grew in the sense of being more creative as well as learning to use things such as gesso.

# data[].attributes.body
I completed the "jungle" and circle made of gesso for the magnifying glass.

I finished my original idea, then added blue and yellow designs to connect my artwork to my groups's.
