Quarter 2 Week 4: Abstract Art - Computer


Title: Heartstrings
Size: 800 x 600 px
Media: Pixlr
This artwork portrays to me the organized chaos that is life and love. 
There is a structure to it all, but unexpected deformities add obstacles that, in the end, make it worth experiencing.

Figure Sculpture Final....Maybe

     I've been somewhat done with my sculpture for a while now. I've just been putting off turning it in because I want it to be better! The more I look at him, the more things I notice that are totally off! Like his head being hugely disproportionate to his body, especially his legs. What is up with that? Why couldn't I have noticed that when I was still able to change it? Gah...frustrations....

Title: Jason, Hipster Cowboy
(Because he's wearing a beret with cowboy boots and a big buckle and plaid shirt and all that.)
Size: Larger than a Barbie
Media: Clay, and various sculpting tools
This project portrays to me the epic trueness of sayings such as "try, try again" and "nobody's clay sculpture can be perfect so just turn it in already."



Realistic crinkles on his shirt! I'm proud of those :)

Graphic Design: Personal Logo

    This is the logo I made for a logo project in graphic design. I thought it turned out pretty well so I decided to out it on here! The company is called new sounds undergroundTM and what they do is bring attention and notice to new artists, bands, musicians and producers on a large scale! 




Week 2 Quarter 2: Start of Sculpture!

  This is the start of my sculpture project!
No, it looks nothing like the chick I posted as my reference sketch, but I cannot tell you how many times I changed what I was going to do. This guy is the only thing that resembled anything that looked presumably human-ish, so I've become quite attached to him. :)
We'll be putting details in next week!

Title: His Name Is Jason
Size: See Below
Media: Clay, Toothpicks, Pocketknife and My Fingers

Progress :)










For size reference :)
