Final Independent Project

This term in art, I have learned the values of color, shape, size, and angles. All of this topics have been important in the projects we have done so far in this class. In art I have learned new techniques that I think will help me with my art in the future. This year we did a drawing from observation that included blocks, cones, paper, and a table.  I found this drawing challenging because it really focused on getting the angles and proportions right. Because of this drawing I feel like I learned information on angles and shapes that I didn't know before. I learned new techniques that can help you get the right shapes for a picture. Besides working on angles and shapes, I learned more about color value, and creating shadows with paint. This was a challenge for me because it was difficult for me to get the right colors for shadows. I enjoy mixing paints and getting different colors, but using paint to create a painting it more challenging then I thought it would be. I learned that importance of placement, as well as the right colors. For years I have known that in art you make mistakes and learn from them, but this year I really got to see my mistakes and try and fix them. I know that everything I learned this year in art is going to help me with my final project and make my project great.
