Watercolors: Directions: Upload a photo of your project to the TOP of your wiki page. Make sure the photo is clear and not blurry. It must also show the entire painting. (3pts) Answer the following questions on your wiki page in complete sentences and in paragraph form.


 * 1) How is your painting similar to an Expressionist painting? *Look back at the Prezi to help you answer this question. There are 3 main things I'm looking for: colors, content (why did they paint?) and how did they draw the objects/people and animals in their paintings? ... ( Minimum of 3 sentences.) My painting is similar to an Expressionist painting because first, the unnatural colors that I used. Have you ever seen a zebra with yellow and blue strips? Zebras have white and black strips and i have yellow and blue. This is unnatural. Secondly, i didn't draw this painting just because i liked zebras or just because i liked using the techniques. Its because i wanted to express myself as a zebra, with the colors that fit into me the most. The content is similar in this kind of way with an Expressionist painting. Last, when artists painted Expressionist paintings they wanted to expressive themselves. So if you look closely to their paintings everyone of everything that is in the painting has something that is telling how the artist is feeling and how he is expressing himself. Its like my painting. My objects and animals i have in my painting has thoughtful feelings and feelings about me, how i feel and what i like.
 * 2) Why did you choose the animal or object to represent you? (2pts) I chosen a zebra for my animal that represented myself because it was unique and it had a feeling that it was different than others. When I feel different from others it feels good because it makes me special to be different.
 * 3) Why did you choose the particular color to represent you? (2pts)I chosen the colors yellow and blue because they were my favorite colors for a long time. Well, i can say that blue was a favorite color but yellow seems too bright for me. I really like the color blue because it makes me feel clear and soft when cold and strong. When i manage to look at the picture, i feel confident in myself.
 * 4) Which watercolor techniques did you use on your painting and where did you use them? (2pts) I used the techniques bleeding, rock salt, and masking with masking tape.
 * 5) What would you change about your project if you could do it over? (2pts) I would want to change the background trees color. It looks kind of funky in a way and doesn't really match with the whole zebra part. It looks like a Christmas tree.
 * 6) What do you like most about your project? (2pts)I liked how i had some thought of what techniques i was going to use, what color matched me the most, and what animal that matched me the most because i think that they all match me very well.

printmaking assignment: media type="custom" key="5918009" = = One Point Perspective Room Critique:

This is my one point perspective room critique. The theme of this room is underwater unorganized room. I chosen this theme for my room because I always wanted to try sleeping in water. I always thought water felt so good on my skin and is very comfortable. Not to mention it I’m not that good at swimming but like going into the water. My unexpected environment is deep down the ocean. It’s sort of weird that my room is in water but the unexpected environment is water too. It was a good match for my room because my room was too messy, it needed something plane to make it stand out. The unexpected environment was clean compared to the room and make the room stand out. The biggest challenge in this assignment was the technique of one point perspective and trying to match the furniture to one point perspective. It was a challenge to me because it was hard for some of the furniture. For example the sofa, and the drawer. I like my assignment because I think I explained everything that was in my head in one paper, in a limited time. It is kind of dizzy but I did my best and I like the creativity like having spring, summer, fall, and winter trees in the bed or having eves, nose, and a mouth on the bed. If I would change anything in this assignment, I would like to add more colors. Looking at it right now, I don’t think I added a lot of colors when I needed them. My paper suddenly looks blank because of the colors and spots I didn’t color. I think I need more color to develop this assignment.
