MORE from the research workbook using Sharpie and watercolor.

Research Workbook





These are just more pictures from my research workbook. I used watercolor and sharpie on one. I used found papers and fabric on the other.


One of these is done with Prismacolor and Sharpie. The other is just Crayola markers.

Encaustic Painting and Mixed Media



This is my favorite project so far. I don't particularly like mine, but the idea was awesome. We melted wax onto our collages to create vibrant color and texture. It was really fun to make. Overall, I like it.

Synthetic Cubism


This was my synthetic cubism project. I used a variety of found
papers, paint, and shoepolish to create this piece. I thought that it was okay. Again, not my favorite project. I tried to create a triangle using the blue ladies. I also added som smaller details that the photograph didn't capture.

Timed Gesture Drawings


We had one minute to draw these figures. They are very sketchy and I just used a Prismacolor soft pastel. It was pretty difficult and I honestly don't like mine. Thank goodness it was only practice. .

Figure Value Studies


For this project we were supposed to create a figure using value and it was optional to create foreshortening. I used different colors of charcoal to create this. I think that it turned out okay. But, I think that I should have colored in some more of the empty space.
