Perspectively in Perspective

 1 Point Perspective

Last week I drew a room using perspectives, one point perspective to be exact. One vanishing point, all angles vanish to a single point - just like when you look down a railroad track.

For this picture I followed a tutorial on one-
point perspective, so it didn't come from my imagination, but from my hand I did sketch it.

Next Project

Currently in the studio I am working on a few different projects. Between my school artwork like this one-point perspective, I have a self portrait started and a Star Wars/Star Trek colored pencil drawing in progress.

Egg-Squisite

A Value Eggs-ercise

This week in art class I am learning how to add value to my art … I kind of already know how to add value, so maybe it's just another value eggs-ercise for me. It is very egg-citing - like every piece of art.

The reason for these Egg-cellent jokes - 

I am drawing an egg - that's egg-sactly why.

The first eggs-ercise was to draw or shade a value scale.

Just a visual of how shading works, going from light to dark - Photography = light drawing

When applied to a pencil drawing we get different values created with different pressure from the pencil.

And then the egg!

A progression of the egg being shaded and value being applied.

And that is the egg in its finished stage, full of value. Hopefully you can tell it is an egg. 

Isn't it egg-tastic!

Unleashing My Inner Picasso!

CUBISM

For this drawing I used colored pencils and crayons. I never really like drawing abstract but they always end up being fun to create, like any other drawing. It's its own challenge compared to a realistic drawing. 

Georges Braque and Pablo Picasso created the art movement of Cubism, using geometric shapes to depict subjects. They are usually broken up using lots of different viewpoints in the same object - like Picasso's portraits with multiple body parts, two noses or a mouth flipped upside down.

Most people would call this art WIERD, but maybe it's just another way of looking at something. Putting realism in another perspective.

For this picture I used books, jars, and candlesticks and broke them up prospectively and created a picture that will make people's minds go, "That's WIERD!" or "That's a little strange!" or "HUH!" or "AH! I thing I need glasses! It looks like … uh, I can't tell what it is."

Thanks for viewing my art!

STILL LIFE

 With Only a Pencil and my Eyes

With Only a pencil and my eyes I set out on an epic journey, a journey … to find something to draw. After hours of looking I settled for a third place trophy - the only trophy I've ever won, a candlestick, a book, a baseball, and an old cider jug.

Here is the first sketch of everything mapped out.

For this still life I used a method in the art world called sighting, not hunting, but using your pencil and the length of your arm to measure the subjects in reference to one another. Something like the below picture.

Below is the final still life shaded with value
