february.

my concentration is portraying the human figure through the use of the principles and elements of art and design.

so far i've done five pieces:

the one where the guys look naked: form

the contour drawing: line

the colorful one of the girl jumping: color

the one with the cutout pieces of paper: shape

the skateboarding guy: movement

piece #1

for my contrast piece i want to do something with stop-motion photography. i want to do either someone jumping, like in this picture, or a ballerina.i made a background on canvas with black and white vertical stripes, and i was thinking of drawing out the figure and making it the contrasting color to the area it is in, but i'm not sure if i want to change the background.

piece #2

for my value piece, i want to do a really detailed graphite drawing and then experiment with textures and colors in the background.

i haven't really been into doing art lately.i guess i just haven't found a piece im really excited about doing, so hopefully i can get back into it by this month.
