It was interesting using my hand as a subject matter for drawing. I had never tried to do it before.  What media did you select - pencil or charcoal? Why? I selected a drawing pencil. I selected this because I already had a lot of them at my house and I felt comfortable drawing and sketching using them.  How did it feel to create a drawing with your non-dominant hand?  It was hard using my non-dominant hand to create the drawing. I had to use more of the side of the pencil to create the shades and lines that I wanted to do.  Compare and contrast...

module 5: first art gallery visit!!!!

Art Gallery Trip!!! A.) Which artworks make an impact or impression on me? Why? The artworks that impacted me the most were the simple line drawings. I like these because of course the artist had there own meaning behind the work but is also left open-ended so that you can see it how you want. An example would be in the first picture when I first looked at it I saw some type of scary monster, yet the artist was trying to show how they saw an owl in a tree.    B.) Which artworks do I feel a connection with? Why? I feel a connection these with these because of the first one, when I was in elementary school, in art class we had to do a project like this piece of artwork.  The other picture gives me a connection because it's using familiar ideas and scenes in an artwork.  C.) Which artworks would I like to know more about? Why? I would like to know more about these pieces of artwork because yet they are also simple, but they are unique. I like the dif...
