i did the mad hatter as my observation project. as you can see im impatient and i kinda gave up on it and i wish i didn't but i started the project late and got mad at it. anyways, i learned at the beginning of the unit about facial proportions and shading which i tried incorporating in here. i chose the mad hatter because i love how out of the ordinary he looks and johnny depp is one of my favorite actors, i really like all the shapes and colors this character has.
This past weekend i ran a 5k in wilmington, it was the color me rad run which is a color run obviously. thats artsy because they throw this cornstarch food coloring mixture at you for 3.1 miles. and on top of that it rained the whole time so our color turned into a kinda paste that worked as paint for our faces. twas a jolly time.
The first 2 weeks we've been observing all kinds of different art working with lighting, shapes, and other hard terrible things to draw. Observing something in very fine detail then recreating it on your paper is uber difficult. Despite my struggles, i have learned a lot about shading, shapes, point of view and proportion. I think i've come the furthest with point of view and proportion, i was clueless until senai Sands guided me in my arting.
