Week 1- Quarter Four(Ink Motif)

Flower Motif
Size: the art itself is 6 inches x 6 inches
Materials: Sketchbook paper, pencil, sharpie, colored pencil, colored marker
My assignment was to pick an object to be my motif and repeatedly draw that within a square, then give it a background of black.  I decided to do flowers, and I chose to do a striped background because I think it allows this piece of work to be more interesting.

Still life

Still Life Assignment
Size:  11 by 14 inch
Materials: Sketch book, pencil, and model objects
My assignment was to do a still life with objects that meant something to me.  I drew a stack of books because I love to read, there is a horse figurine on top because in real life I painted that figurine myself with a friend, and horses are my favorite animal, there is a pencil because I love to write stories, and there is a necklace because I bought that particular necklace with another friend whom I have known practically since we were born, and she has a necklace identical to the one that I have that is in the picture.  I tried my best to draw these objects with accuracy, but because it was my first time drawing these particular objects I couldn't completely succeed.

Self Portrait

Title: Untitled
Size: This was done on an 11 by 14 inch piece of sketchbook paper.
Materials: Sketchbook and pencil
My assignment was to do a self portrait that not only portrayed my face but something about me.  I drew my face on the cover of a book because I love to read and I also love to write stories.  My dream is to publish a book someday.  I feel like I could have made this better if I had more practice but this is one of the first times I've drawn a self portrait.
