Art 2: clay art

For my clay art I had the topic dessert. I decided to do cake pops and cookies. I decided that I wanted to glaze my art clay. The hardest part of this project was adding the chocolate chip to the cookie. I learned how to scratch and score. 


Art 2: colored pencil drawing

For my drawing I drew a beta fish. I made the drawing zoomed in so less than half of the fish fits on the whole paper. I used prisma colors. I made large scales on the body of the fish and I used consecutive lines for the tails of this fish. I really like how the prisma colors help the fish colors pop and make them look more vibrant. A challenge I faced was that at first I didn't use consecutive lines for the tales of the fish. I fixed it and I also started with darker to lighter shade drawing the lines. I like the colors I used it makes the fish look better than my rough draft.

Art 2: mint and dum dum drawing


I used chalk to create my mint drawing. Some issues that I had with the chalk was that it would smear by accident often. A technique that I learned was how to create shadows, and clear wrapping paper. This was a difficult drawing but after my 3rd try I was satisfied. 

The dum dum drawing was made from colored pencil. I used prisma colors and regular colored pencils. Some challenges I had with the drawing was the little details the dum dum wrapper had and the folds the wrapper had. I really liked adding shadow to the wrapper with the prisma colors, it gives it a different look.
