Idea of Place - ALLIE JEWELL

Pencil Drawing

Pros: Erasable, big range of value, easy blending, easy to make precise details.
Cons: Leave erase marks.

Pen Drawing

Pros: Darker drawing.
Cons: Can not erase, can not blend.

Charcoal Drawing

Pros: Easy to erase, big range of value.
Cons: Easily smudged, messy.

Most helpful warm-up, pen cubes.

I thought the pen cube warm up was the most helpful for me because it got me comfortable in the different techniques for drawing with pen. It gave me practice and made me see which techniques I would and wouldn't want to incorporate into my drawing.

Composition: Placement or arrangement of visual elements in a piece of art.

Value: Lightness or darkness of a color.

Idea of Place

2/28/2019

The place represented in my art is supposed to be the lake by the park I like to go to when I need a break from everything else.
The thing I found most challenging in my piece was making water look like a reflection of the sky and the slight waves of the water.
I think the most successful part of my piece was the sky itself.
The process started with painting the back round colors like the water base and sky color. Then i went in with more and more detail and the reflections and the last part I did was bridge.
