Molly's Art Class

This week I was working on my exam piece of the Japanese Waves and it ended up exploding in the kiln

This past week in painting I have finished my acrylic art project and I have already started my other piece. I am really happy how they have turned out. The drawing of the deer was something I had started but I didn't have an idea. That's when I started the rhino painting because of all the videos going around about trying to save them.  

This past week in ceramics I have started my master artist project as well as finishing my pieces and got them glazed

This is my project that I have started. I have worked on it for a few days.

The week of this project, I was abesent the day it was assigned which is why the project resulted into this mess  

This week I have been working on my acrylic project. I have been slowly adding to it each week. Thirds are postures compiled over the weeks. 

Quarter 1 Value Project My master artist is Michelangelo. I used his "Head of a Young Man" as an I idea on how to shade the human features. The way he uses soft shading, makes the portraits look more lifelike and realistic. The way he draws the person from the side also helped me to understand the shading area of the face. My current artist is Michelle Cox. I used her various portraits of present day people to try can help me understand the human features and how they can be made to look realistic. Her technic of dark shading makes the picture pop on top of a light colored background. Describing:  My project is of a soccer player named Harry Kane. The object next to him is England. I chose that because it represents me and also the athlete on the page. Everything goes together in this piece. The bold lines inside is the English flag to represent the country. This project was made in graphite pencil, H and 2B. I used H to shade the areas and 2B to darken ce...

SRQ Project This was my SRQ. I really enjoyed doing this. I used travel maps for inspiration. My master artist is Ferdinand Hodler. I love the landscape pieces he creates. He makes them look so subtle, yet detailed. The pigmentation in the colors makes the picture stand out more. My current artist is Geraldine Burles. I love her landscapes as well. She paints the water with so much detail. She also puts a lot of detail in smaller things such as boats and grass.

Mold I used a mold for this piece. I ended up throwing it away due to not putting a foot on it. I painted it as well

Watercolor update

Two pinch pots: updated

Master Artist: The artist I have picked is Van Gogh. He uses watercolor very smoothly. He has vibrant colors but then he also has watered down colors. He uses little techniques that make his artwork original. I like how he makes his work like soft and the colors all go together nicely. My current artist is Sue Dickson. I like how she can color animals and make then look so real yet she is able to use soft colors.
