wheres waldo project

this project was one of my favorites because we were given so much freedom with it. We were to create a wheres waldo project by cluttering a bunch of images. after a couple of hours I'm pretty happy with my end results:

albrecht duer assignment

for the next project we were assigned to create a piece of art that mimics the work of Albrecht Duer an artist that uses really well carved stamps using various filters and patterns.

we were to choose an animal as the subject of this project so i chose my favorite amphibian ( an axolotl) for this project.

 after using the filters and the instructions provided i created this!

for this next project we were instructed to create a rhyme with our names that had a dark twist. like a dark twist to a children's book. this was to mimic the work of Edward Gorey who created these rhyming sentences that usually ended with a dead child.

because my name is Vanessa and not many scary or spooky words rhyme with my name i decided to choose dilemma because it left a lot of open room for you to imagine what would happen along with the picture which would help a bit.

celebrity coloring book page

For my sixth assignment of the year were told to create a coloring page for a celebrity. it could be anyone. so i chose one of my fav youtubers and one of my idols Jenna marbles.

I started with this image from one of the first videos that I watched from her. Called "turning myself into a disco ball"

after that i decided that instead of tracing it i would cartonify it and use black and white shading which eventually got my final product.

For the fifth assignment of the year we had to create a cartoon version of ourselves using a photo the we took in the class or recently. So i did something simple and took a photo of me in class and decided to draw from there.

This is the original photo I too in class the day before.

This is the cartoon i made out of it. I wanted to draw myself digitaly in my own style and then i aded a colorful background to even out the dark colors coming from my turtle neck and hair to get a product that I'm really proud of.

For the fourth project of the year in my digital art class we had to create another trace/recreation of a famous art piece. I wanted to try something that I would probably never do so I chose to do one on a famous painting by Joan Miro.

This is the original piece by Joan Miro showing some sort of human like figure with a "patchwork like background"

For most people they would look at the piece of art and think of a kindergardeners art or somwthing fun and colorful so i wanted to make it a monster type of thing but colorful. Something scary but seemingly fun by the color skeem. So i added a way to realistic look to the body and backround to end up with what you see here.

For the third project of the year in my digital art class we had another project that had us editing the classic scream painting by Edvard Munch. but instead of tracing/creating our own pieces of art based off of the photo we had to create the photo but with our faces screaming.

This again is the original created by the famous artist Edvard Munch.

And this is the photo I edited of me as the screaming person. All I had to do was squish my ace a bit and add it into the painting.
