The ARt of CoMpoSition

On Tuesday Suzanne taught us about the importance of composition...composition is not only important because it deals with how things are arranged on a page but it tells a story...composition guides the readers eye and can be a big reason if the reader understands what you are trying to convey.

the assignment was the create a two page composition answering the question what makes studio, studio? when i went to do the assignment i wanted to capture the essence of my first year studio so far...so what i did was get pictures from iarc blog and the iarc main page and incorporated them in my two page composition...

WHITE ON BLACK SELF PORTRAIT

the assignment was to draw ourselves by looking in a mirror...the interesting part about this assignment was that we were drawing white on black instead of black on white paper. even though the picture came out to look like a person i dont think that it looks like me...but overall i think it came out good. tell me what you thinks

Design Research 1-3

I found it very fun to look through different magazines for products and artifacts...These products came out of the September 2007 issue of House Beautiful.

1. I chose this piece for one because of its beauty and simplicity. The little bit of color that is used accents the draws so that the color is not distracting or detracting from the piece. I would love to have a set of drawers in my house that looked like this. Simply, beautiful, with a hint of traditional style.



2. I chose this chandelier because of its rustic feel. Besides being very beautiful the flowers and rustic texture give it an antique feel.



3. You will probably never guess what this is...Post It Stickies!!! I chose it because when looking at it you do not know what it is. When i read the caption...i said I love it. Post It Stickies are office necessities that can add a sense of style and flair to any office if displayed in a fun way.

Pencil Box 101

our second project was to design a place or box for pencils...suzanne showed us some different types of boxes and i was inspired...she showed a box that stacked on top of each other and i thought what if i did a stacked pencil holder...the interesting part about my project is that the pencil holder is detachable...you can move it to different parts of the desk






in this photo i moved the pencil holding container in the middle of the pencil box...notice its location on the other pictures and how it differs in this one..



i thought this project went a lot better than the egg project...leave your comments letting me know what you think..

We had to do more profile pics...so i drew my girls candace and christine...those that saw the pictures said that they look like them...leave your comments and tell me what you think about the pictures...

Pr0F1LiN

the assignment was to draw profiles...i found that i was successful on one and failed at the other...partly because i used different techniques on each one...on the first one i used a combination of perspective and the triangle technique and i think that it turned out very well...but after being told that i did not do it correctly i stuck with the technique done in class and it turned out terrible... so tell me what you think

Egg Models..My First Project

The assignment was to construct a place that celebrates a quality of an egg. I thought to celebrate its shape...but I don't think I was successful. The response that I got from other members in the class during our final critique made me feel like this was not a successful project. But because we had to load images of our projects online...please be nice...I already do not like my project.
