Fall

For the four seasons project we have to take a picture of the same thing in a different season. I believe I took mine a bit too early as there is not much difference. I will post this for now, but if I get a better shot then I shall upload it.

Green with pottery

Something green was the challenge, so I looked around my house and found various green pots. Plastic and clay; both with a mission of holding. The plastic contains plants, and the clay holds random cool stuff.

Abstract in my Nature

For this project I didn't realize I took several pictures. They all seemed pretty awesome so I used the best ones. I didn't alter any of these pictures, I just took them and uploaded them. To me abstract doesn't have to be well planned out, it just has to make the viewer question their life morals. I think these pictures                                                               really capture that idea.

House or zoo?

For the pet project I wanted to take a picture of most, if not all, of my animals. I got almost all of them, the only one missing is Rue, a small cat. My pets did not like me taking their pictures; some of them scratched me in protest. I put most of the pics through Photoshop to crop and make black and white; I didn't for Astrid because I got lazy. My cats are all outdoor cats that I bring in the garage at night for safety and warmth. Most had been strays at one point in their life. Astrid had her brothers and sisters all parish in a lawnmower; Kira came with her sister, but her sister has not been seen for a year; Kitty Wampus and Rue just appeared one day, both seemed very domesticated; Cleo has never been a stray.  June and Ashess were adopted for my sister. Brody was given to my father by a friend. 

Nightmare before texture

One of my favorite movies is The Nightmare Before Christmas, so I thought it would be a great painting to do for the textured canvas. I had to dig the canvas out of my hiding spot in the basement and combined black  paint and plaster. I dipped my hands in the plaster and made the hill sort of "line-ish" and made the rest of the canvas's texture fairly flat. I then painted the hill a dark blue, and made some parts lighter than others. I painted on the moon and then Jack singing his lament.

Color wheel

For the color wheel project I drew a girl with hair that looked like something I would have. I then took all the appropriate colors and mixed others together. The color wheel is one of the most useful tools for artists.
