Chalk Art

Working on a team in art makes the project more enjoyable because the entire project doesn't lay in your hands. Collaboration is important when working on a team because if each member contributes their strengths to the better of the team, the project will end up looking much better in the end. This project was successful, although our team ran out of green which made finishing the tube a difficult process. Making interactive art is cool because it allows many people to incorporate themselves with your projects.

Print Sketch

Texture is important to include while doing sketches such as these because it adds dimension to the picture and creates a better overall appearance of your drawing. Having multiple images of both the animals and the landscapes helps give the drawer more inspiration or ideas for how they want their final product to turn out. Looking at all of my sketches makes it easy to tell which sketch will turn out the best on print because the most simplistic sketch will turn out looking the best in most cases.

Value Scale Drawing


I started to develop my picture by putting the image up against a window and tracing the evident shapes through the paper. Once that was done, i finished by shading and drawing the facial features. This project was extremely difficult, therefore making all the features and shading look neat and correct wasn't easy. One obstacle I faced when trying to complete this project occurred while trying to neatly transfer the picture from the tracing paper into my sketchbook. After some help from Mr. Sands, I was able to complete the project.

Turtle Drawing

This picture show's my boy Nick and I, trying to draw turtles that were swimming around in the tank infront of us. This project was in my opinion, the most difficult project we've done because of how active the turtles were in the tank. If the object you're drawing isn't still, it makes drawing the details very difficult.

Cartoon Bone Toad


Today in class we drew cartoon skeletons of a animated figure that we chose. The most difficult part of this project was drawing bones that don't exist on the human body such as Toad's mushroom head and his feet.
