Drawing Sara

This is a morning exercise we did where we had to quickly draw Sara in different positions and make it very sketchy. I thought my drawings accomplished that even thought I never really made it to her face! :)

Melanie's fruit.

We had to draw a partners fruit. I chose Melanie because her's was interesting and I thought it would be challenging to draw.

snack anyone?!

We had to draw 1o food items very detailed including the wrappers. I chose things I had stashed in my dorm room.

Dialogue

Plan View
Elevation

This project was titled dialogue. We had to use 12 bamboo skewers and 12 4x6 pieces of bristol board. The model we made had to have two pieces that related to each other and "spoke" to each other. I doubled the bristol board by glueing 2 pieces of bristol board together so both curved structures used 6 sheets. I wanted to make it even on both sides but different in some way. So, on one side I bent the skewers by soaking them in water, and on the other side I kept them straight. To me, the bent skewers represent shelter and the straight skewers represent protection by being very straight up and strong. They are placed behind the curved structures to create a sense of togetherness but difference.

Lake House-Original Floor Plan

This is my first floor plan for the Lake House. These are the same measurements but with some adjustments. This was only supposed to be in pencil and I used line weights to create depth and thickness. I moved some of the windows and doors around to make more sense to me and to create a better living space.

Junk Drawer to Junk Shelves

My junk drawer.

The junk in shelves from a perspective view.

For this project, I pulled things out of my purse and off of my desk. The hatching and cross-hatching was definitely a challenge for me since I had not done it in quite a while. I thought this project was enjoyable and we were given a lot of freedom, meaning we could draw anything and as many things as we wanted. In the shelves my vanishing point near the bottom left, but still somewhat in the center of the page.

Perspective

The Elliot University Center

We were told to draw 3 different spaces, one in the library, EUC, and Gatewood Studio Arts building. I chose to do my final drawing of the EUC. My vanishing point is off center towards the left at a sitting eye view.
