In Row 1, I attended 3 different paint nights. I created 3 winter pictures. You have a small group of people and your art instructor tells you what to do and what colours to use. Everyone ends up with a canvas painting that is the same. The class lasted about 3 hours.

In Row 2, I looked at a picture and then created the image on a canvas. First I use a pencil to draw the image and then I use acrylic paints to finish the painting. These pictures I did at my Art class at Outreach School.

The pictures in Row 3 I created by myself. Again I first sketch them and then use acrylic paints to finish them.

Row 4 is my abstract paintings. It’s about using color and creating splatter paintings.

Row 5 starts with my sculptures. I use sculpting clay and created these characters. The clay comes in different colors so I had to think what my character would look like before I began sculpting. The leaf challenged me to create different patterns using the same colors.

Row 6 shows two paintings that I sketched first and then painted. My favorite pictures to draw are dragons.

The 7th row shows my pencil sketches. For the dragon picture I used 2 photos. The head is from a different photo than the body. The racoon and the kitten are from photos too. I pencil sketched the kitten for someone I know as a Christmas gift.

The first picture in Row 8 I won the Global National Award for my First Nations creation. The second painting painting shows my first ever painting I did. The last one was a painting I created for my English class.

Row 9 show 3 paintings I recreated from a small drawing.

The wolf picture in Row 10 I created by myself. I enjoyed doing this night scene. The Lapis Lazuli is my favorite painting of all.

• As an Artist I wanted to make this picture look more vibrant; change the picture from late summer to early summer because I like vibrant colors.
• You need to be sure to screen shot entire pic @ end of class so next class you can see what has been done. We only took screen shot of our colors bar so I could not see pic of what I had already changed.
• I wanted the mountains to be more blue gray. I also wanted the fence and the bridge to be a bright red color.

This week I got to choose any assignment from the DS106 Assignment bank so I chose this assignment. I chose to do pictures of my sisters’ dog Connor. I love all animals but I feel like Connor is a part of my family. He gets to come in the house with us. He gets to stay overnight when he and my sister come for a visit. Connor loves a lot of attention!

My sister got Connor when he was just a tiny little puppy. We instantly fell in love with him, but a puppy can be a lot of work! I play with him, take him for walks, and always have my eye on him as he loves to chew! One time he chewed a toy squirrel and its eye was ripped out, the tail was half off and then he ripped it right in half! At least he ate the toy squirrel and not a real squirrel.

To create this collage I used befunky.com collage and added my pictures from my phone. I chose a layout that I liked. I put my photos into the layout, but I had to click on each photo and edit them as they all appeared upside down.

In the story; “Sophie’s World” Sophie has many questions that she can not answer yet. She is still searching for those answers. After watching the video that asks: “Can a computer talk like a human?”

 

I like that my sister helped me to do my collage. I picked the pictures I wanted. It was important to me to include my family as they are my best support and help. My pictures show me doing the things I love. I  love archery, animals and the outdoors. My mom and my sister chose the quotes. I think they chose great ones for me.
