I had to look at a shoe, draw it, and then turn it into an abstract piece of art! Below is the final pencil drawing, and what it looks like now after I finished! Done in pastel :)
Today we learned that are new focus is going to be on abstract art. I was instructed to draw my shoe and then somehow turn it into an anstract piece of art! Here are a few sketches I did today, I will post the finished project when I finish!
*First photo is of a whole shoe, second two are close up drawings. Still painting apples! All week i've been working on painting apples with oil paints. Its my first time I used this medium and I really liked how you painted a part of the apple one day, and the next day the paint was still wet! This allowed me to change or add colors the next time and the colors actually blended! It was nice to not feel rushed. However, I'm not sure I liked how thick it was! The apples turned out well, but I painted each apple individually. Next painting I want to work on painting painting "everything at once". I think That will make the painting blend more! Also, I need to add the shadows on the apples and fix the the shadows on the ground. Overall, I'm happy with the piece and I'm excited to paint something different than apples next week!
