I pulled out my 35mm while at my sisters house. I liked some of the photos that came out.

this was a great final project.

We had to creat a piece of art that coresponds (in our own way) with an instrumental. I choose to do a literal interpetation, and I am preatty pleased with my final outcome.

 

Got Wood?

A group floor assignment was to creat 2D composistions out of scraps of wood. I found this to be a little tricky because of the peices of wood that my group selected, but we managed.

Plexi

An odd project, but semi-entertaining was when we had to creat composistions using colored paper and plexi glass…it was weird.

Google with a hint of Diebenkorn

We were to select 15 images from google that all fell under one search, mine was “Help”. After selecting them we had to arrange them using the negative space of any our choosing. I really enjoyed this project, and was kinda satisfied with the outcome, until I continued to work on it.

Deibenkorn, sketches

Filed under: ART 140 - Design 1 — michaelcurtis @ 5:05 pm

Based off another project we did, we had to draw some photographs we took in a small sketch form. I found this to be a little unneeded, as, we never came back to them or they were never checked.

One of my favourite assignments this past year in any of my classes was when we had to go out and take pictures that were quasi-diebenkorn in composition. I really enjoy photography, so this assignment was enjoyable. these are my ten photographs.

This was an intersting project, it started off with me and a peer (i.e Jason Korff) playing a game of chess, as shown below:

The practice of working together on a sheet of paper at that size, and with charkole set us up for our next assignment. The project was to recreate a Diebenkorn  photo much larger that what it actually is. We chose to do our’s 3x the size of the original. I’m happy with the outcome and enjoyed this project.

After selecting Five random books from the Jackson library, we had to create a post card sized compostion of our choosing to be inserted into the book, then the book was to be reshelved for someone else to find the art at a later date. I chose to do the interpetations of the title, or what the title/idea of the book made me feel. These are my five ‘Drawings’: (Keep an open mind, try not to be offended)

The book for this piece was titled ‘Even Cat Sitters Get the Blues”

This title of the book for the following piece was “Out of our Minds”

The book I used for this piece was “Sex Wars”

The following book title was ‘The How of Happiness” and this is the piece I used in it

The final piece in this project was used in a book called “The End of the World Book”
