6 prints

I made this with paper, paint, ink, staples, the print maker, and the block I carved my design into. I put the words "There violent delights have violent ends" on each of the hearts. The idea of this is to display how you shouldn't rush into things, because usually you'll end up getting hurt. It's one of my favorite quotes from Shakespeare. The first three hearts were printed with red ink, and the last three with blue ink. Also, the red hearts are facing up and the blue facing down. The colors were representing emotion. At first, it's all full of lust, but then things can change from that. The most intense color is on the top and bottom. This is to show how the most emotion is felt from the red at first, and coming out of that of love, it finally fades away. Alike that idea, I used staples on it. Most intense top and bottom, and gets less towards the middle.For the overall print, there's a heart on it. Obviously showing your emotional state. The lines around the heart, are supposed to look like your heart beat. Like how it would look on a heart monitorOver the whole picture, I had water dripping down, which because I did it while wet, caused the colors to all blend together. This was to show how all these emotions and feelings are connected, like because you feel one emotion, another will come out of that one.

Perspective Drawing of House

This is a drawing in perspective of a house. I used paint, paper, and brushes to make this. I had the house set in a forest, almost like it's disappearing into the forest.

Perspective Drawing

This was a living space in one point perspective of being under the sea with mermaids. I had a lot of fun with this drawing because I completely imagined everything, I found it to be really creative for me. For this drawing I just used regular drawing pencils. I smudged and shaded to give the contrast of light to dark to make the image look more realistic.

Portrait Front View

This is a portrait I did from the front view of her face. I did this in all drawing pencils. I would smudge parts, or even go over again and again to get a more realistic look. That way the lighting could make the image come to life more.

Skateboard Design



This is a drawing was done with pencils, colored markers, and sharpie. Done on plain paper, which I then cut to give the illusion of a skateboard. This was made to represent the human heart, and the feelings that go along with that. On the left there's bright red larger hearts. To display the love and happiness someone can feel. Contrary to that, on the right side there's small little blue fragments of hearts, but mostly just shapes. This was to represent how based on the love emotions on the left, people do get hurt. People can be left alone and sad, which was what the right was susposed to protray. Around the design I colored very dark black around it. This gave the image a more dark and interesting look.

Profile Portrait



This is a portrait that was done solely with professional drawing pencils.. This portrait was done on the profile view. By shading the cheek bones, and under the jaw line gives a much more enhanced contrast of light to dark. While doing this I wanted the attention to be purely on the face shape and features. That's the area where I put the most detail in, and left the arms a bit less dark so that they fade into the back round.
