Book Creations
Learning - 1st book
For my Art class, we created booklets that will include our Art and English pieces/writings. Below are descriptions and images of what's inside my book.
On the left is the cover of my book. I cut out little pieces of art that my friend, Priya, made for me.

We first chose an image, a selfie or not, that we wanted to sketch and re-create.

With our sketch we learned how to shade certain areas of our image in order to enhance the image and to bring it alive (much easier if you know how to sketch but hey, not bad for a rookie).
|
And lastly, we traced our image with a pen, sharpie or marker to make it different and unique. I cut out images from magazines and added them as a background for my image.

Basquiat Style - 2nd book
Surrealism Book - 3rd book
For this book, we focused on Surrealism and how it all began. In order to become a surrealist, we created a poem the Dada way. Where we cut words out of magazines/newspaper and randomly chose them.
_________________________________________ We then chose a photo that we could photoshop ourselves in. We had to take a photo behind a green screen and combine it with an image we had chosen (Lion King image). Another piece of work that we did was an partner painting/drawing. We got in groups of two and each incorporated into the drawing until we were both satisfied with the result. So I drew something on the paper and then my partner would draw something and that went back and forth. _________________________________________ Then we drew an abstract painting. We had to incorporate magazine and paint together and wrote what surrealism is. We also added one of our favorite surrealist quotes. Another poem we created was an echo poem. We chose one of the surrealist poem we had read during class and with each line we responded to it, creating our own poem. _________________________________________ We also added our surrealism story into our books, as well as an illustration cover. |
