Art School Term 1 Submission
1.1: Photoshop for Production
Assignment 1: Pen Control
Admittedly, I really took my time with this task; I wanted to ensure that before I moved on to the next task I was able to confidently execute these exercises.
As I will be studying on this course fulltime, alongside other learning material, I want to progress only when I know I have completed the work to the best of my current ability.
I feel I did ok here, and having spent a lot of time practicing these exercises, I feel I have more control of my pen and am able to draw from the shoulder more confidently. With that said, I need to be more confident when committing to drawing a line, as there are some wobbles throughout, and some flicks at the start due to underconfident execution of the lines. I also have a tendency to over shoot my lines; this is something I would like to work on moving forwards.
I found the circles very challenging initially, however, once I loosened up, I was able draw with more confidence. Though, I will continue to practice this exercise, as the circles are still quite wobbly.
As for the pen pressure exercise, the same can be said, I need more practice as there are some bubbles and wobbles.
With that said, compared to my initial attempts, and though the work is not perfect, the practice paid off.
I will now move on to colour matching.
Gesture Drawing Practice
30-Second Poses and 1-Minute Poses
Day 1 and Day 30
As I am working on figure drawing and portraits as part of other courses I am studying on alongside this one, I wanted to start gesture drawing daily.
Below is my progress from day 1 to day 30.
There is some improvement between the two, especially when it comes to understanding the information I need to capture within the time limits and capturing the movement of the poses.
Though I need to develop a better understanding of the gesture line, as mine are misplaced, even on today's page of gesture drawings.
Traditional Portrait Drawing Practice
28/9/2020
Below, is my recent portrait study. On my next portrait, I want to keep in mind to build up the values slowly, as well as take more time measuring.
Gesture Drawing Practice
30-Second Poses and 1-Minute Poses
30-minutes
Day 31
04/10/2020
On this page of gestures, I tried to focus on capturing the movement, while thinking carefully about line placement. I tried to remain loose, and relaxed, and drew quite slowly, while keeping the time limit in mind.
Term 1.1 Image Adjustments
I finished assignment 2 of photoshop for production; I understood the principle but the execution was quite tricky. That said, I can confidently use the functions covered in this assignment now. I'll revisit these and use them as colour and value matching practice every so often.
Term 1.1 Assignment 3: Creat your Dream House
Below is my finished project for term 1.1 assignment 3, create your dream house, as well as the images I used.
This assignment was really fun, I haven't really dabbled with photo editing before, so, I took quite a lot away from it.
My idea of a dream house is, honestly, pretty humble, just a welcoming and cosy cottage, hidden, amidst beautiful woodland surrounded by nature. I was going to add a paddock for a couple of emu, but I was getting carried away so I opted against it haha.
