paintings dump
x-posted stuff from my deviantart~
I finally bought myself a camera, so I got around to taking pictures of all the stuff I did last semester in my intermediate painting class. So here is a dump with descriptions copypasta'd from deviantart.
First assignment: the goal was to paint a still life made up of "white" objects (though of course there was a lot of variation between ivory and slate and so on!)
Though I don't think the painting itself turned out all that well, I think I got more out of the process and exercise itself.
This was a quick one-class assignment from the intermediate painting class I took spring semester of my freshman year. First we made a "landscape" diorama out of a shoebox and some random colorful stuff (marshmallows, plastic wrap, wrapping paper, etc). Then we... painted it.
Yeah, kind of cheesy I know! But it was fun :D
The assignment was to make a painting about "light." So of course I had to throw creepy naked sexless people in there... =_= and a dog for good measure.
Goal was abstraction.
Ah... not sure what else to say about this besides a vague "it was fun to make!"
man... I miss taking art classes. This semester I had no room for any in between all my engineering blah :( but I'm thinking about taking a sculpture class next semester! That should be fun, I think.
