But everything I drew has a very deep meaning from something that happened in my life. I never had the normal life a lot of kids had. And with these drawings I will express my memories to the fullest, even though a lot of them are memories I don't like to think about. And for my final project I will be using markers and color pencils. ]]> 2021-01-04 17:10:53 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1052737158 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1074303573 I drew this picture based off a game that I have played in my past. Another reason I decided to draw this was to have fun. The last drawing was very personal so I thought I’d do something different. I drew a sun to show light being shined upon the character. I left some parts white to show that the sun is shining right there. Obviously the parts that are shaded in are the parts that aren’t receiving any attention from the sun. ]]> 2021-01-11 14:52:58 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1074303573 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1123192212 I drew this self portrait the best I could.But this self portrait was of me when I went to a wedding and took this picture as a freshman. One thing I did change about this picture was in the original picture I was inside my house getting ready to leave to the wedding. This time around I thought it would be cool to draw myself outside. And with purple sky to give the vibe that I am not on earth. I made this my world, as a kid I always thought purple skies would be cool so I put in full effect. For this project I used color pencils and pencils, if it looks weird in a couple spots its because I did a lot of erasing. ]]> 2021-01-25 17:35:25 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1123192212 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1139951573 So when I drew this picture I was going for a wild kind of view. I am a energetic person so I tried to make my picture describe me. I put the word “ glee” from Kodak because he free from jail and that made me hype. I drew aliens looking at the word goat as if they were scared to be funny. The crossing out trumps name is because he is not president anymore and also because I don’t care for him. Other than that the rest of my drawing really has no self connection just wildness.]]> 2021-01-29 09:52:51 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1139951573 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1139971847 When I drew this I was thinking about nothing but money. A fun fact I’m good at shooting dice. So I put that on there to give a little insight on me as a person. And as you can see the dice showing seven. I drew a debit card because I’m trying to get one. I drew a fake id for the simple fact it is being mailed to me. And I put calling mobile because every time  I turn around I have to either call my gf or she calls me. Lastly the tree is car freshener, whenever I feel good I enjoy a good smell of black ice. ]]> 2021-01-29 10:00:38 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1139971847 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1140053413 For this I picture I drew her from a scene in a movie. In the movie there was a scene where there was a dead naked girl being examined. So I thought now is a perfect time for proportions. I paused the movie while she was laying dead and copied to the best of my abilities. I messed up a lot throwing multiple papers away. I couldn’t get her to come out how I wanted so I went to classroom and looked at the examples you put in there and it helped me out a lot. ]]> 2021-01-29 10:31:21 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1140053413 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1142364487 1. Questions you can ask yourself that can guide you when viewing my work is, how did he do it, why should give up and why can't I overcome it?

2.I'm interested in investigating this topic or idea if you will, because violence has always been apart of my live and it still is and honeslty is just how America is.

3. In this project I used color pencils, pencils, and sharpes. In my next project I plan on using markers and hopefully some other supplies such as glue.

4.I have been trying trying to draw by using shading and also getting really good with the lines I add in my art.

5. I have tested out idead by drawing them on seperate peices of paper to see if I liked it enough to put on a final piece of art. Another way I will do testing is thinking about it in my head and seeing if I can think creative with whatever it is I'm thinking about.


6. I have practiced my drawings my drawings them. If I felt something would look good on paper I would draw it and if I didn't like it I would be done with that idea. Or I would have someone like my girlfriend look at what I drew and see if she likes it as well and give me feedback.


7. I have revision for one image that I drew. That image being the dead body only because while it is normal to me. I wasn't really thinking of how my audience would feel about me sharing images like that.


8. I have got on google and typed in help. I also have went to youtube for ideas. I was given lots of information some of it I took it and some of it I didn't care for. I can't remember the youtuber I watched, they were more so small time, but google helped me I typed in voielnce and or crime scences. 

9. I have gained inspiration from artisits on google and youtube making it all look so easy. And being kind enough to leave behind step for step instructions to art that is quite diffuculit in my opinion. 

10. I want to get some markers invloved next time instead of just using color pencils. If I can find a way to get some paint involved, I wanted to use some glue and try somehting really out of the box.

11. I hope for the viewer to understand where I come from when I drew this. And if they can't I hope they try to understand. I hope they don't judge me for not being a perfect artisit, and just give me feeback that can actually help me and not bring me down as a young developing artisit.

But I aimed directly for death specifically. I drew this to just remind the person viewing it that life isn’t promised. A lot of times people get stressed out about life, but forget human life is limited so why stress. That’s mainly what I was trying to touch on with this drawing. The materials I will be using are color pencils, sharpe, and pencil.]]> 2021-02-02 13:58:18 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1153642377 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1250477487 So with this thumbnail I want to preview how how the next drawing will be. It will be dark to some and normal to others. In my third sustained investigaion I will try and make my view feel uncomfortable when viewing. Being PG for school is holding back my art I feel. So with this next drawing it will be very strange, but also unqiue. ]]> 2021-02-28 17:51:06 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1250477487 giovannij5263 https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1250478182 1. The questions that are guiding these investigations is, Why.

2. I'm interested in this topic for the simple fact it is always been around, and while it may have not always been for good cause over time it became art to me.

3. All I need for this was pencil, paper, and allow my mind to be open to what ever decides to drift through it.

4. I'm doing line drawing, for the most part I just focus on how the lines look, and connet to make a decent looking picture.

5. Yes, before I drew this I tried to add other ideas in the paper. I ened up throwing it away for the simple fact I was convinced it had nothing to do with my sustained investigaion. 

6.I have drawned previous investigaions and thumbnails with the same materials, so I feel that is a way of practcing with materials.

7. When I draw I have no revisions for the simple fact if I like it I like it. The only reason I through my other drawing away was because it was for a grade, I will do a revison when my grade comes into play. :)

8. I used my girlfriends ideas and google's ideas. Mixed in with my own so I could have a better and more settled approach to this project.

9. I really gained inpiration from myself, I looked at my old art and seen that I could use imporvement.

10. I plan on using the same materials I always use pencil, paper, and my mind.

11. I hope the viewer looks at this drawing and gets mixed emotions, and I hope they try see the big picture.]]> 2021-02-28 17:51:30 UTC https://padlet.com/giovannij5263/o6zdcaqmrex6iyp6/wish/1250478182
