Traditional Stuff

edited December 2010 in Artist Alley
I had some assignments for my art class that I've been working on and I have something I did on my own. These aren't in good quality because I used my cell phone and not a good camera. These are <span style="color:#BF0040">works in progress</span>. Many errors have been pointed out and are being fixed currently by me. I'm just slow at it! xD<br><br><br><img src="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/1208002154.jpg?t=1292282084"; alt="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/1208002154.jpg?t=1292282084"; class="bb-image" /><br>Self Portrait- I had actually made improvements on this but I had to turn it in before I could get an updated picture. My left eye will be getting fixed sometime soon. My teacher wants to enter this in some county contest, I'm not sure. The paper is pink so that's why its.. very pink xD. I wasn't done applying colors so the other version isn't as warm. This is acrylic (love how fast it dries) and pastel. (There is a filter on my reference, hence the rough shadows)<br><br><br><img src="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/1211001448-1.jpg?t=1292282254"; alt="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/1211001448-1.jpg?t=1292282254"; class="bb-image" /><br>Bailey- An acrylic painting of my border collie. I was hoping to get this done for my mom for Christmas. I think I will get her a copy because I love to keep originals. There's a filter on this reference picture so I have lots of little lines yet to draw and do on here. I used the grid for this because I'm fairly decent at grids. I saw no harm because it was my own image that I had taken with my camera =). This is an outside project of mine I had planned for awhile but kept procrastinating.<br><br><span style="font-size:150">Finished:</span><br><img src="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/3123.jpg?t=1293001461"; alt="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/3123.jpg?t=1293001461"; class="bb-image" /><br>Finished: This is a miracle that I finished. In my haste I took a picture with my cellphone instead of my actual camera. I couldn't find a way to get a picture of this without my reflection shining back.. so ignore that! This is a print of the actual painting that I placed inside of a picture frame. I will get a clear picture of the actual painting as a final for a digital upload. I wonder what my next project should be! ;;<br><br><img src="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/DSC_0170.jpg?t=1292282627"; alt="http://i216.photobucket.com/albums/cc278/Skaitie/DSC_0170.jpg?t=1292282627"; class="bb-image" /><br>Still life-Assignment for my art class. We used graphite and the grid method again. I believe this is 3x the size of my reference. I took the reference picture myself. We had to have 5 objects in the picture so I have the clock, a mouse cord wrapping around things, cell phone, lens cover, mini camera tripod. I was asked many times what the camera tripod was and.. I'm -hoping- that is just that they don't recognize it because parts of it are cut off and not because I drew it bad >.>. I ran out of time on this project for when I had to turn it in. Some of my shading was smoothed out before I turned it in. I got it back recently and plan to go back and add more values and darken certain parts. I almost didn't want to post this because of all the things I need to go fix. <br><br><br><br><br><br>Anywaysss... critique is alright with me as long as you don't address something that I already mentioned that I was going to fix. I still have to go back over these so any little things you can tell me will help.<br><br>p.s.. I bet a lot of people didn't know I did art.. xD I do! I just don't post much.

  • I think people are busy with the holidays. I remember seeing this, and wanting to comment, but not having the time to do more than just quickly look over new posts before I needed to get off. Of course, then I forgot to come back and comment.<br><br>I LVOE the dog portrait. It's gorgeous.<br>The style of the self portrait is really cool too.
    I'm done with VP. I'll just be around until I get all my dogs and lines placed in good hands. If you want to contact me, please do so through deviantART.
  • Oh I wasn't looking for an explanation, I understand things, haha. =)<br><br>Thank you~ I need to get back to school to get that portrait back and fix it. I could probably mess with the still life after homework. ^-^<br><br>I appreciate the comment =)
