International Photo Project!! C:

The Prairie Life. . . Nothing But Wide Open Spaces!

Everyday Objects Made Interesting!!

In Art we had to do a Folk Art project. and instead of painting on some cupboard or wooden spoon i decided to paint on my mothers old jazz shoes from when she was in dance. On the side's of the shoes i put "Like Mother" and "Like Daughter" because she was in dance and now im a dancer and i put a butterfly symetrically in half on the front of each shoe just to show two pieces comming together, as in something me and my mom have in common. I really liked the sentimental idea of this project.

*PhoTo*

things we see may be different to other people living in different countries for this project we are trying to portray our lives to those whos lives are different. things we see every day like runners and snow could be totally different to someone who lives in Africa.

We are taking pictures of challenges and everyday things that other people in different countries might not have, the differences in family and community aswell this is quite a hard project but here are some of my pictures of community and everyday sightings.

Just For Fun!

The painting on the left i did entirley at home jsut for fun. I just got bored and have metallic paint at my house and a canvas so i went to work. i didnt really think it would turn out like this originally i wanted to make it all matallic jig saw like until i got lazy then i added the black i also wasnt going to put the white lines on until i tested it out and actually liked it. The piece on the right i did mostly at school it was meant for the art show we had on the 26th of february. I call it Amanda because it looks like my friend, she even has a nose ring! it was my first time using the gell medium as a gloss and i really like the effect i got.

One Little Word

Trust

These are my favorite pictures i took for this project. we actually got kevin to co-operate which was very helpful haha. the word i chose for this project was trust and i was trying to show the trust

people need to have in a relationship. it was very bright outside so i dont like the shadows but i tried to avoid getting my own, and amanda and kevins shadows out of the pictures, which wasnt easy.

SCYAP project

This is my 3 piece set texture abstract painting. I used metallic paint for the backgrounds and used the tap effect for the corners, i tipped the the paint with different colors of paint. the background is scrunched news paper i really like the effect i got. The silver one is my favorite with pink blue and yellow tips. the scyap art show is on February 21st. im also working on another abstract painting on canvas, ive worked on it strictly at home and i like the way its turning out so far.

TEXTURE ASSIGNMENT

Both Pieces are made with paper, tape, and arcrylic paint. the top one is made on cardboard and the one below is made on wood. i wanted to go for a more abstract look with the painting on the bottom.
