art projects

I just got 4 of my pictures back, and I realize how much I suck at this whole art thing. Everybody thinks they're good, but they're really, really not. but then i saw something that made me even madder than messing up a lip-they're all faces, all girls, and none of them have anything interesting to them

So I had to find a bunch of pictures to use for art this summer, and this is what I came up with. There'll also be a graffiti- brick wall in black and white, "truth" written in calligraffiti, and "lies" scribbled all over it. But I'm not using a model for that one.

for this one, I'm going to tweak it so that the cloud is bigger, and make it a raincloud. The girl will be slouching. I'll probably have to use a horrible media for it, because we're required to do at least one of each media, but I'll probably ruin the cloud anyway, so that's okay.


I don't know what I'll do that one in, but I rather like it, so maybe I'll actually be motivated to finish. Maybe.



This one's Clare's, and I'll have to use pencil because it's the only thing I'm really great at, and it's a good contest piece. And this way we won't be lying to the poor mexican dude.



and this last one just might be my favorite. it's a cloud made out of umbrellas (i'm on an umbrella kick lately) so it'll be shaded minimalist watercolor, which should be fun.


and I just went crazy and decided to do a mixed media, same size copy of the centerfold for memento mori, by flyleaf. I don't have a picture, but trust me-I'm crazy.
