2D One-Point Perspective Tape Project

I was in a group with 3 other people to complete this project. We first took a photo of the architecture and printed a picture of it off. We then drew a one-point perspective city street on top of the picture to lay out how the tape would work with the walls. Using the drawing as a guide we measured and angled hockey tape onto the wall to give the impression of a street going back into one point on the wall. It was very difficult to make the lines perfect and we had trouble making just one horizontal because of the complicated architecture. We wanted to put more detail using street lights, street signs and a pothole but all our time was took up by the buildings and sidewalks. In the end it still feels finished without the extra detail.

There is only one area someone can stand that will bring the perspective together without looking deformed. As you move from the spot you will lose the perspective and see something like this.

Sculpture Chocolate Box

My class was given an assignment to make a box made out of whatever  materials we desired. I have a love for chocolate so I made a chocolate box. I used Smarties boxes to build a base and filled in the rest of the space with the Smarties and candy to make a box shape. I stuck the candy together with melted chocolate so people would be able to eat them making it a process piece of art. 

Sculpture, casting and molding project

For this piece I decided to cast my face and other objects such as beer bottle tops and wrenches. Then I took the cast objects and re-cast them to attach to my face.

Once I finished all the casting I poured plaster into the cast to made a mold. Once I took the mold out of the cast I added plaster to broken parts and then sanded to make a smoothed look. 

Sculpture, One Material Project

I started off the boat by making a cardboard frame so the glass wouldn't collapse. 

Then I used broken beer bottles for my one material with hot glue to stick the pieces together.

Once I had covered the entire surface I flipped the box hoping it wouldn't break. 

It ended up flipping perfectly maintaining it's shape. I will be making more glass projects because it is inexpensive and fun to do.

Canvas Mat

I started off picking off a pattern I like to usually doodle and projected it onto the canvas mat. Then I painted the lines in analogous  colours. 

Planar Analysis

This is a planar analysis of my hand. This is a  practice piece to understand the technique before doing the self-portrait.

  

A planar analysis is a portrait that is made up of mapped out planes. With those sections I painted different values of green depending on where light hit my face and where shadows were.
