Profile an artist

Salvador Dali - I chose him because he didn't care what everybody thought of his paintings. He did what he wanted and stayed true to himself. Altho he is a very famous painter and i am a high school painter who does band logos i feel like me and him have something in common. We both do what we think is fun and relaxing. I hope to be famous like he is one day, as long as i do what i love getting there.

Summing it all up!

This year in advanced art I have grown a lot as an artist. If you look at all my projects as a whole you will see I went threw phases. First I loved to make bracelets and necklaces, then I went to sculptures, and I ended with painting. I think that painting was the most fun and relaxing. I could go any direction with my projects and do whatever I wanted. The tiki hut was the hardest and most frustrating project all year. The toothpicks kept falling off and it took so long to finish. The sword was another one of my favorite projects of the school year. It was really fun creating because no one has ever really used packing peanuts to make something before. Where am I going with art in the future? I am going to be taking an art class second semester next year. I wanted to take it first but my schedule didn’t really work out for it. I’m exited to see how my drawing skills will get after another art class! I am very happy I took this class, it was between this and physics.. I think that I made the right choice. Thanks for everything

BLINK!!!

This was a extra project. I didn't get a grade but Blink is one of my favorite bands of all time and so i thought that if i have done so many other bands i should do Blink. They are awesome .. Good day

A tree, shark, and cottage

This is not a band or a cover of anything. I did this project merely for fun and to fill up some of my time. I tried to incorporate as many colors as possible and make it mesh together. I like it a lot, it might be one of my favorite projects i did all year.

This is one of my favorite albums on my ipod. It is also the one that looks the coolest. It took me over 3 weeks to make but i think that it was worth it and a good use of my time. Well anyway this is my Farewell cover album.

My inspiration

I got my idea for my favorite project this quarter from listening to music. I love all the music i listen to. Lately i have been listening to 30 seconds to mars a lot so i decided to do a project about them. i am probably going to make another painting for bands i like, its not easy but its fun and relaxes me.

Project 3 (30 seconds to mars)

This is my album cover for 30 seconds to mars.Neither of their previously albums had anything to do with mars and going there so i thought i would do the obvious and make something like that. i thought it turned out really well, and it is now one of my favorite projects. i might just stick with doing album covers and then keep painting. i thought it was fun and it turned out really well.
