1: I used a masonite panel and went to Rossum and cut it into four even rectangles, but I only used three of them. For each one of the masonite panel I did a different idea. On one of them I did flowers, the other I did campfire, and for the last one I did kayaking and fish. The Flower canvas has a bunch of different flowers, with green and newspaper background. The Campfire one has a pink & purple sunset with music over it with a campfire in the center. Finally for the Last canvas there is pictures of me fishing, kayaking, and fish stickers, layered onto the top of a blue bubble background.
2: -For the flower canvas I first did a layer of newspapers for the main background. Afterwards I didn't like how plain it looked with just the newspaper, so then in took a bunch of different varieties of green tissue paper, and rolled them into balls. I then laid The green colored tissue balls and layered it onto my newspaper. I then cut out my flowers with an exacto knife and hot glued them onto the canvas. - My campfire canvas I started by priming my canvas, then mixed my colors till I liked how they looked. I then Painted them onto my canvas from darkest to lightest and blended them together to make a sunset. I them found one of my go to songs to listen to in the summer. Whiskey glasses by Morgan Wallen and printed out the song lyrics with notes. I cut out two even sections of the song and placed it over my sunset background. I then ripped different fire colors of tissue paper, with kylas help and glued them onto my canvas for the flames. After I finished that I found different shades of black and grey tissue paper and rolled them into ball shapes and glues them around the bottom of the fire for the fire ring pit. -My fishing & kayaking canvas I primed it then made a blue color i likes and painted it on, While canvas was still damp from the paint I mixed white paint, dawn dish soap, and a little bit of water in a container and blew into with a straw to make bubble. I then let the bubbles flow over the top and into the canvas to back a blue bubble background. I did a coat of modge podge over it them cut out pictures of me fishing & kayaking and modge podge them onto it. It still looked plain so I used some of kylas fish stickers, and printed my fish I had made previously on the soft cut boards. For the finish touches I did a layer of modge podge so everything would stay. 3: In my three canvases I am expressing some of my many likes. I love fishing, kayaking, flowers, music, sunsets, and campfires. These are my main interests that I am expressing that not many people might know of. 4: My goals for this artwork was to find a way to express myself, by my interests and likes onto a canvas/paper and to make it interesting. 5: My overall thoughts on this artwork is that I love how everything flowed together and tied in. I really like how my flower and blue bubble canvas turned out. If I had to change something that I don't really like is my music that was in my background, I wish I would have made them transparent so it wouldn't have looked so blotchy.

For my artwork I've been using Development of craft currently. I have to keep testing the materials in my sketchbook till I like how it looks, then I start on my canvas. As I am working I make changes and just going with the flow till I get my canvas to look how I want it to. Another studio habit I'm using is Express. With this studio habit I am express myself, and the quiet side of me. I also am expressing what my interests are and making an artwork out of it. So far I am proud of how my canvases are coming together, and flow together. I'm still working on how I can add more layers, and college more to add more to the canvas.
For my final artwork, I am planning on making different collages of my favorite things. I will start with making a background then layer it continually up till I like how it looks. I will then add more images on top and keep layering. For my collage of my flowers after layering it I will add paint and mix it together. For my fishing and kayaking collage I will continue to layer and for the background I am making bubble and putting them onto the background for the look of bubbles. For my third canvas I am doing a sunset with transparent music over it which I will build up a fire on top then a fire ring around it. I got my inspiration my some of Frank Big Bears Collages, and a lot of trial and error.
I'm using Development of Craft: I am using this studio habit in my artwork because, for my backgrounds I am trying something new and working with bubble, which takes a lot of trial and error to get it how I like. I'm Using Stretch & Explore: I keep trying and seeing how the best way to put things together are. |
