ART Yikes

So if anyone knows my art. they know that i am not that skilled. Dancing and photography are my true passions but i am trying to learn to draw. so these are my first two projects that i have turned in. the first one was about principles. here is the full lay out of my project.





and here are close ups on each square and i will go into detail at the bottom of each one. so here we go. dont laugh to hard at my poor art.












this one is dominance and subordination. (the names for each one are on top of the drawings)



i drew the ballons to show the dominance by making others out in the distance.









this is repetition and variation. i drew this free hand. i am pretty proud of this one out of all of them. the I-pod nano designs were chosen by a friend of mine.












this is balance symetrical, meaning it had to be even and identical on each side. I saw this picture on line and new it would be simple to draw.









this is movement. it boes from the bottom to the top. can anyone guess what this scene is from. leave me a comment with your guess.





this is rythm. you can read it as you go across the picture or somthing like that. i am not to sure.

now here is balance asymetrical. it doesnt look right but it was a las minuet thing and my least favorite out of all of them.

now for my second project i had to redo this picture by picasso up side down and double the size.

obviously the one on the right is the original and was on a basic sheet of paper like for a printer. the one on the left was my copy of it. i just saw some mistakes so now i am sad. but i learned a lot about proportions.


and to make me happy, i am going to end this with a photo i took. enjoy and have great day.

Idaho woo hoo

so for those who didn't know, i am now in Idaho. Attending the BYU campus in Rexburg.

I left California on Thursday after with some of my friends, Tom and Brooke and my brother, Robert
.
we dropped off Tom and Brooke in Provo and me and robert headed up to Rexberg, Idaho. it took a while for us to find the idaho sign but we found it:




and then drove longer, rocking out to music and having fun on the way



we stopped in Idaho Falls and checked out the temple there. it was a very beautiful temple. these pictures do not do it justice





we ate pringles and then when we arrived to rexberg, the sun set was amazing,






so we moved on but no one can see any pics of my place until after friday just cause, the one i am in is not the one i am living in. long story. email me if you want the whole story. lol

well today, monday i went for a walk around campus, oh by the way ,happy labor day :), and if any one loves gardens, trees, flowers and everything that is beautiful this is the place to be. check it out.



it's weird that how good cabbage works and looks good at the same time.






lady bug for good luck :)



anyone know if this is an old bee hive or a new one. i thought it was a nest but then i looked closer and saw the bees and old honey comb.


so i came around a corner in this awesome oasis and came upon this waterfall. it was beautiful











and then coming around another corner i found this area completely secluded from everywhere. surrounded by plants and trees. this might become my reading area. it is beautiful, here you go for a visual








and here are some more random pictures i took







well, i shall post more as it comes up. be sure to leave comments and let me know what u think
