Photo that Inspired Game


Charades is the game that I tried to recreate. By recreating it I made it into a spinner charades. I used the element form in my game when I made the spinner 3d. I also used the element space by having empty space around my cards and spinner. I used value by having light colors in my game. I used texture by having the cards and spinner to be smooth. I used variety by having several shapes in my game.

Who Am I Critique

Matthew Melton

I chose to critique Matthew Meltons artwork because this type of art is my favorite. What stands out the most to me is that he make the face 3d and not flat. I like it and it look really cool. The nose makes my eyes wander. The feeling i'm seeing in this artwork is happiness, but I also see worry concern like this face is listening so intently to find out what happened. "The African Face" is what I would name the artwork. Mostly the colors brown, and white were used in this art piece. The color represents what a face of a native african tribe member would look. He wanted to portray his culture in a fun and interesting way other than drawing. I like the overall recreation a lot because of the 3d affect.

Favorite daily Object Sketches






I like these Daily Object Sketches because they are the best daily object sketches I have drawn.
I didn't like the daily object sketches because they were too hard to keep up with and remember. I have other classes and other homework to worry about. I think that we shouldn't have done this daily object sketch thing. I would prefer to do a project instead.

Favorite Art Journal



These are my favorite art journals because of how to displayed the question. I like the colors I used as well. These colors are my favorite colors. 

I enjoyed the art journal but I thought it was given out to often. I personally think we should have done it every other week. The questions given were interesting topics and I like to do these.

Photo that inspired my art



Mexico

Soy hispana y siempre voy a ser hispano. Mi padre y mi madre son ambos hispánica pero no mexicano. Mi padre es cubano y mi madre es mexicana. Yo en cambio nació en Estados Unidos y tener el pelo rojo porque en mi pasado tengo herencia escocesa. He estado en México, donde reside mi familia por parte de mi mamá. Cuando yo era un niño, el español era mi primera lengua. Luego, en la transición al idioma Inglés perdí algo de mi español. Afortunadamente, el español estaba perdiendo, yo estaba ganando de nuevo en clase española estaba tomando desde el 3er grado. Ahora estoy con fluidez en español. Un montón de gente se sorprenden cuando se enteran de que puedo hablar español a causa de mi pelo rojo, pero estoy orgulloso de mi herencia hispana. If you can read this great! This is exactly what my culture is all about. 
I decided to do this kind of project because I think it portrays Mexico . It is a style of art called Mexican Huichol Art. My mother knew that this type of art, along with other Mexican art , but I chose this because it seemed to challenge me. I like challenges, so I took it and succeed. Art is much harder than it looks. It requires patience and time. This art is beautiful.
The process is quite simple but takes a long time. First, you draw the picture you want to make into string art on a piece of paper. Second, you get a stickitfelt sheet and lay the page with the  drawing over it and lightly put pressure down on the lines outlining the figure you want to make. When you finish the stickitfelt sheet will have a carved in version of the drawing you want to make. Third, you get a razor blade and cut one section of it out first and lift the sheet that covers the sticky part and start to apply the string in whatever shape way or form you want. Fourth, When you finish with apply the entire string out and make the picture you wanted. You must apply a layer of glue to keep it down for good. Then your all done!
I made this artwork because I have hispanic heritage and this artwork is a type of hispanic art. This artwork symbolizes in my life that I am hispanic and im proud of it. I used Actual texture in my art. I used tint int my art. I used primary colors in my art.
