Rough Sketch: Hand
This is my first attempt to drawing my hand.
Advanced Art Q2
I present to you "The Shy One." I first seen this image on FaceBook and I took one look at it and was amazed by the whole thing. I fell in love because it's represent me in a way. Shy and sophisticated. When I research the picture some more I found out that she wasn't the "Shy One" at all, in fact she was originally sitting on a car with a wrench in her hand. As you can I eliminated the wrench and that car and replaced the wrench with a cigarette. Adding the cigarette gave more of and sexy and sophisticated feel to the picture.
I want to thank Ms. Hull because she helped me out majorly throughout this drawing.

Bria Jackson Q2 Art Project "What I Can See"
The title of my piece is "What I Can See" it is an abstract painting that shows everything that one see's when they first look at someone. It shows the physical qualities of person that would attract another. Everyone has at least one physical quality that they want would like their partner to have.
For my piece I asked others to help me out by answering two questions. Such as When you first see someone what is the first thing you notice? What do you like the most about yourself? Some of the answers I received were eyes, face, smile, hair, complexion, body, lips and more. So I wanted to use as many of those answers as possible.
After putting some thought into it I came up with my painting. I like you or want you for what i can see.
This is the unfinished product

Ryan Barksdale-White Artist Statement
SHOW SOME LOVE!!!!!!!!!
For
my quarter 2 benchmark i took a picture of the Love Park sign. Love Park
is a place in Philadelphia were you can come and hangout with friends. Love
Park is as known for being a home for the homeless it is unfortunately true
because there are a lot of homeless people who live there.
One
of the reasons why this picture means a lot to me is because it is in
Philadelphia and I am from Philadelphia so I feel as though because I am a Philadelphian
it is necessary for me to know what it is and where it is.
Another
reason why this picture means a lot to me is because Love Park is known for being
a great a place to skateboard. And as a skateboarder I have been there a lot so
I can skateboard. Unfortunately it is now illegal to skateboard there now so
the Love Park sign also represents a "Rest In Peace" sign.
In conclusion
I feel that Love Park defines Philadelphia because Philadelphia is called the
city of Brotherly Love and the key word in that is “LOVE”.
Ashley Weekes, Q2, Artist Statement
Originally I was suppose to work with recycled items to develop a work of art, instead I tried my hand at a skill that I've been working on for awhile, which is drawing. I've been frequently taking art classes on Saturday so I recreated some pieces and tried to improve some. Mainly my focus for my this art project was to build on skill that I've been developing. I worked with charcoal, pencil, pastels and toned paper to experiment with the different types of textures and shades to work with when drawing figures or still life.
Some of my drawings are recognizable as some of disney's famous characters. These are just some sketches in my book that I've been working on to give my hand practice at drawing different characters. I know the creativeness isn't necessarily there mimicking a picture, but I find it great practice when it comes to drawing cartoons. It helps to see the simple shapes in the characters so drawing comes more fluently when trying to draw what you see.
In my art classes we had nude models so there are two unfinished figure drawings where I worked with charcoal and shading in the dark spaces. When figure drawing it came natural because my hand has become accustomed to drawing the shape within a figure itself, in trying to give the drawing dimension I had to focus on lighting and the gray scale to make the figure pop.
I worked with pastels for the first time drawing a pitcher, a wine bottle and some squashes I didn't get very far in my design, but I've very pleased with what I have so far. This was very different from using charcoal because black wasn't the only highlight color to make the objects pop out, we had blues for yellows and oranges to figures stand out.
My 2nd quarter project was a simple back to the basics of drawing, with few sketches, and side experiments. The practice will do me well in the future for our third quarter assignments.

S.Kabangai Q2 Art project
Artist Statement Why you did what you did? What does it mean to you? What did you use to make it. Hi my name is Samuel Kabangai, i attend school at Science Leadership Academy, i am the artist that created this design. For our second quarter project, we the students had a choice to pick our own art that we wanted to work on and a project that meant something to us. I wanted the project that I choose to mean something and represent a part of me that I am proud of. I was born and raised in Sierra Leone west Africa and my African heritage is something that I am very proud of. Another thing that influenced my art was my name. I have a unique last name and all my friends and people i know have different ways to say my name. One of my friends Devonte Martin told me that my name can be a trade mark. The art that I decide to make is custom made shirts that had hand made drawings and different designs of the map of Africa and my name. I am a person that loves fashion and so I decided to put these designs on t-shirts that I can wear and so could other people. The tools that I used to make my shirts were things that can be used or acceded by anyone and they are affordable by anyone. During the process of the project I got a lot of help from my art teacher Ms. Hall. After I drew the designs of the shirts on paper, I used a box cutter to cut out the outline of what I had drew so it can look like the way I wanted it on the shirts. After I drew the design on paper, I traced it on shelfing paper and cut out the the design that I wanted to show on the shirt. After this process, I used a paint brush, dipped it in fabric paint and slightly tapped the paint on the out line of my design, while it was on the shirt. These shirts that I have made and the ones I am going to make mean a lot to me because it was an idea that I had, a design that I made and it had a theme that I was proud of and I followed it and made the art. I am happy to see the reactions on peoples faces when they see the shirts and I am happy to see people wear the shirts. I hope this idea gets bigger and greater. More designs, art work and t-shirts and coming soon. |
