Month: December 2021

So I recently found out that a car and a Carr are different one of them let’s you do places and one of them a a very famous artist however I still don’t know much about either of the them but I did learn about the power of the pencil.

This an Apple Pencil it allows you to draw on an iPad or phone easier and is a very useful tool in digital art. I have spent the last project learning about how to use this valuable item well and i will explain to you now all the thing I made with it and a little app called sketches pro.

First of all we learned about all the tools in sketches there are quite a few that all have their own purpose.

The first task we were assigned to complete was to make our names in our own creative way i made my name have a pattern that looked like the earth because if I was not alive I would have no world I also spray painted it in rainbow colours because I tried it and it looked cool so yeah here it is.

I think it’s great dont you. No really answer , wait your reading this after I made it well feel free to drop a comment on this post if you want compliment my amazing work.

next up we learned about what sketch notes were and found out they are very important as they can help people who are not the best at writing to still remember things they learn without having to stress about writing it all down. We made sketch notes about something’ our options were a tutorial (which I chose) a day in your life or about the Ted talk we watched in class. Here are my sketch notes.
This is one of the pieces of work I am less proud of as I think it looks a bit messy.

Next we went in to shading and well I found it you could a little difficult.

next up we drew perspective drawings. Perspective drawings are drawing that looks like It is real as you feel like you are looking down a corridor. So  I took a picture. 

I used the perspective techniques we were taught in class and drew this photo.

I am very proud of this as it looks slightly real and the opening door of the cupboard is amazing I think.

next up we created a business that we would then make a logo for that company. The company i made was called the doggy dinner and it was a restaurant that had dogs for you to pet and you could could bring your dog there and there would be a menu for dogs.

I used sketches pro to get this logo

the dog represents your dog or our dog the paws with cutlery represent your dog being able to eat too and the stake represents the food.

this was a very fun project as i enjoy art even though i am not the best at it.

ok i dont wanna write anymore so im gonna finish up

overall i think i did well in this project and had a good time and i think i have improved my drawing skills very much.

Okey byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Have you ever made a photo? Not taken one but made one? That’s what this latest project was about.

Our driving question for this project and to be explored in this blog was

‘How do we communicate through photographs?’

In this blog I will explain how we learned to use photo editor, Snapseed, and Pixelmator to improve the quality of photographs and their aesthetics. Using these apps you can take your image from a boring low resolution image of your cat to an award winning piece of art. So sit down, listen and learn!

In the first few sessions we learned about the different types of photographs we could take and learned about the rule of thirds. You can take panorama, bursts, and Live Photos. Here is an example of a pano.

The rule of thirds superimposes a 3×3 grid over your camera screen, which is used to help format where the focus of your picture should be. The focus should not be the middle. For a great photo you should place the main focus of your  picture on one of the thirds to the side.
Here is an example of where I didn’t use the rule of thirds and then one where I did, can you spot the difference? Which do you think is better?

The next milestone was to create a photo that we had made already from the past so Sister  Dearest explained how to use tic tac and we created this tic tac of me from the past being dumb and me also in the past but not as far back being dumb.

Just kidding we made this.

The next stage of our learning was looking at how we can create mood in a picture. The emotion I received was “amused.” This was quite tricky at first as I didn’t understand what amused meant. Was it funny or was it doing something fun? But Mother Dearest explained it, and I took this photo considering composition of the background and foreground elements.

Next we created another collage that was about us and a way of showing who we are through a photo. I recently moved from England to Canada so my photo contains me jumping from England to Canada this was a big risk but I was willing to embrace the challenge and persist in the face of setbacks. I have included a lot of English thing and a lot of Canadian things. I also made the background pokemon because I love pokemon and they are epic.

This collage was also a part of the very same blog page that was mentioned before.

And finally we created gifs. These gifs were supposed to explain who we are as a person. Mine makes not much sense just like everything I do. And I know what you must be thinking: where are these absolutely amazing and awesome and creative and fascinating and creative collages and gifs? Well all will be revealed when you click this button.

Did you go.

Did you love it.

Amazing I know.

No, no hold your applause.

OK you can applaud.

I’m assuming you clapped very loudly

Thank you for reading my blog post. I hope you liked it and overall I had fun in this project and learned a lot I learned about editing taking and cleaning up photo to make it the best i can. This is me sighning off PEACE!
