This week, I've been working on a project with a limitation. The limitation i selected was creating an elephant using only small squares of cut paper. This limitation causes me to have to overlap many small squares and arrange them in a specific way so they make a shape. In my final piece, i want the elephant to have color contract and have texture. I want the elephant shape to be obvious.
Last friday in Art 1, We had a task party. I enjoyed the task party a lot because you had to make art while completing a task pulled out of a box at random. This activity was fun but also challenging. For one of my tasks, I had to "make it snow." To complete this, I cut white paper into small circles and threw it in the air. It made a mess but i completed my task! For another task, I had to build a tower out of markers. Daisy and I made the tower really high and it kept falling :( The picture shown shows Daisy and I completing our task.
Copying can be OK in art becuase it is differnet than stealing. After completing the Artist's Steal project, I realized that copying is a part of art. Even the best artists do it. You can interpret someones ideas into your work.
My character remix project is Elsa from the movie Frozen. I changed her look by making her hair, makeup, and clothes dark. My final project is a collage of pictures from apex high made into an interactive journal. The Merit of my piece is the importance of the school and everything associated with high school. |
