I think that my painting is similar to an Expressionist painting because it has similar colour's and I also have an animal and show nature which they have. Also I drew my dog and the content not cartoony, but not really realistic. So these are the three reasons why my painting is like an Expressionist painting. For my painting I chose a dog because they are active, but sometimes lazy. They are also outgoing and adventurous. For the color of the dog I chose yellow which means passion and likes to do things. For my Project the water techniques that i used was bleeding, rocksalt, and wet on wet. Also If i could change anything about my project i think that i would change my animal. I think that i am not very good at drawing dogs and would like to do another animal. Last, but not least the thing i like most about my project is the colours i think that colours make the project stand out from other artworks

Answers must be in __complete sentences and in paragraph form__. You may need to write 2 paragraphs. Please answer these questions below. You can type the answers to your questions on Pages, or Text edit. I will grade your answers on your Voicethread. (instructions will follow.)
 * 1) Define positive and negative space. **2pts**

Positive space is the space on the picture with the detail and the most design. The negative space is the background which is not detailed.


 * 1) Did you use mostly positive or negative space in your design or an equal balance of both? **1pt**

I think i mostly used negative space in my print because i do not have much design in it

No i did not have a motif for my project
 * 1) Did you have a motif for your project and if so what was it? **1pt**


 * 1) Did you use interlocking design? If yes, how? **1pt**

No i do not have an interlocking design


 * 1) Which type of Balance did you use on your project? Symmetrical or Asymmetrical? (Review your digital portfolio to help you answer this question.) **5pts**

I think i have a symetrical theme

First you need to draw a design, then once you are happy you need to get the linoleum. Then you get your gouger and gouge a design. The you need to get the brayer and cover it in paint. Then you charge the brayer and burnish it on your paper and then you have your final piece.
 * 1) Write 3-5 sentences describing the printmaking process starting with the materials you used to cut your linoleum and ending with how to print. Use the following words in your description: linoleum, gouge, brayer, charging, burnish. **5pts**


 * Answer the following questions about printing. These will also be read aloud on your Voicethread.**
 * 1) Were you successful at printing? **1pt**

I think i was successful at printing. I wasnt so keen on my print but i did a good job transferring it onto the paper


 * 1) What was the biggest challenge? Why? **2pts**

The biggest challenge for me was gouging it. This was a challenge for me because it took a long time


 * 1) If you could change your project, how would you? ( You must have an answer for this. "I would not change my project" is not an acceptable answer. ) **1pt**

I would change working on a differnt material. I did not like the linoleum because it gave me a headache


 * 1) What are you the most proud of? Why? **1pt**

I am most proud of the final print. Because it looks cool and i think quite artistic.

One Point Perspective Room Critique



The theme of my room is an ideal room for myself. It meets all my specific needs. My unexpected environment is in sought of a cave with fire in it. I chose this as my unexpected environment because I think that the environment is very unexpected. I think that you would think that the room is kind of colorful and normal, but when you look out side it is in a Dark Scary cave. I think that the biggest challenge in this assignment was sticking the original piece of art onto the unexpected environment. No matter how hard I tried I could not get it on evenly. I think that I attempted to stick it on about five times. In my project I am most proud of the swimming pool and the sofa. I am proud of these because I think I did a good job. If I could change anything I would change the criteria. I would make it so instead of us making a environment I would make us cut out random pictures from a magazine. Then we could paste them on the places we were going to cut out. So it looked a little more "Different".
