Final Blog Post (Visual Arts II)

Throughout this semester, I've done many different projects and improved as an artist. Out of all the pieces I created over the course of this semester, my favorite was probably the essential question project.

I put a lot of effort into this project and the end product was better than I expected. Before this project, I never really knew how to draw people. I learned the proportions for the body and got to try a new medium: ink. The concept was also interesting too, as it was inspired by a Celtic legend. This was by far my favorite project I did in this class.

My least successful would probably be the very first project I made in this class: the element project.


It wasn't really bad, but it wasn't good either. This was the first art class I've ever taken, so I was kind of at a loss at what to do. On top of that, I didn't know how to use spray paint, so it was very new for me to do. I think I would have achieved a sharper and clearer picture if I had used acrylics or some other kind of medium that would show the actual shape. At least I can look back at this painting and see how much I've improved since then.
