3D Art - Blog #18 Final

Bookmaking Project:

1. What did you learn to do in this project?

   When doing this project, I learned how to glue, fold, and create/design a book. I learned how to decorate the pages according to my theme as well.

2. What materials/media did you learn to use?

   While doing this project, I used many different materials and media. I used glue to help keep the pages together, and scissors to cut out the cover pages. I used many medias, such as pens, pencils, markers, copic markers, sharpie markers, watercolors and watercolor pencils, and gel pens

3. In your opinion- how did your project turn out?

   I really do like my project! I love the theme I chose and the various colors I used. I think it turned out very well!

Paper Sculpture:

1. What did you learn to do in this project?

   While doing this project, I learned that it takes a lot of time in order to roll enough pieces of paper in order to make a significant tower. It took me forever just to get the amount that I needed!

2. What materials/media did you learn to use?

   While doing this project, I used pieces of paper and glue to keep the rolls together. I also used paper clips to hold the paper together while the rolls dried.

3. In your opinion- how did your project turn out?

   I don't really like how this project turned out. It's a bit uneven and strange looking. I like the colors I used though. But overall, it's not really how I imaged it to turn out.

Repousse Project

1. What did you learn to do in this project?

   I learned how to create indents in the copper piece in order to make a design. I also learned how to indent a part of the project even further than what I had before.

2. What materials/media did you learn to use?

   I mainly used the wooden flat tools in order to great smooth impressions. I also used the yellow handled tools in order to "outline" my design and create smaller indents

1. In your opinion- how did your project turn out (or is turning out?)

                   So far, I really like the way it is turning out. I'm happy with the way it looks and I think it will look awesome when it is done!! I love the bubble effect that I put in the background.

Repousse Piece

So far I have learned that flipping the piece over and working from different sides makes a nice texture.
I plan to add a background to it.

Peter Paul Rubens

I chose this image because I think it represents how women used to be in the olden days. I like how they used to dress back then.

Large Scale Sculpture

Name: Ben Blanc

This piece interests me because I've always loved Elephants because they are very intelligent animals and I love that they made it a scaled sculpture to what an actual elephant size might be.

It's a large scale because of how big it is, much like the size of an elephant.

My project so far #2

So far, my project is still at the same place it was about a week ago. I am still creating little rolls of paper just like the ones pictured. I plan on making something out of the rolls of paper, possibly a word or object! :) So far I have learned that I am going to need a lot more paper rolls than I initially thought I would!!

Interesting 3D Art

I thought this sculpture is very interesting because the way the fish seems to go through the wall. I like how they made the fish golden because it makes it stick out and it catches the eye a lot easier than if it were to be a different color.

My project so far

So far, my project consists of about 100 of little rolls of paper such as this one. I plan on gluing together all of the pieces to form the word "Art." I think when I finish it, it will look really cool and unique. So far, I have learned that rolling pieces of paper is a lot more boring than I thought it would be!! :)
