My least favorite artwork would probably my collage artwork. I did this artwork with magazines that I cut cows out of then I glued the cows to the paper and added popcorn seeds. This one is my least favorite because it was to simple for me even after adding the popcorn seeds. This artwork I would want to redo so that it can be more unique and I can't figure out a background to add more to the picture. If I redid this artwork I would add a lot more thing to give it more structure. In this art class I learned that being a perfectionist is not alway the route to go on. I may still take to much time on my artworks but I am willing to work on improving that in the future. I wish in this artwork we could have done some screen printing because that is something that sound fun to do and learn.

My artwork is made of clay. It is a structure of me with a purple shirt, brown braided hair, black headband, and a black ponytail. My artwork was started by using white modeling clay. Using my hands I formed myself being precise. When I felt like the structure fit my my form I use a small knife the make the eyes, eyebrows, mouth, and gave the hair more details. I then let the modeling clay dry throughout the day. When it was dry enough I used the leftover acrylic paint I had from last project to add color. I then mixed and painted my artwork to show me more vivantley. The big idea of this artwork was to show me and my identity. I want my artwork to show what I looked like and my features. I also did braided hair for me represent that I like to do things with my hair. I also added a headband because I wear them once in a while but when I was younger I work them all the time. I was going to do a yellow shirt for my favorite color but though it would be hard to see the skin and shirts beginning and end. I love the way my artwork turned out except for the nose turning out to be a lot bigger than mine. Overall it turned out better than expected. My plan for this artwork is to do a clay sculpture of me. Along the way I have been observing other artists like Frank Big Bear, Laura Youngbird, and Dyani White Hawk. I have also been understanding different artworlds be looking at these different artist and the way they use their culture to make art. I hope to make a beautiful artwork and post about it in future blog posts.
The past few weeks I have been working on collage. I started by observing other collage artist and their artworks. I did not anything that I knew would be in my artwork. I decided to something with cows because we live on a huge farm with about 1,300 head of beef cattle. This means that we get a bunch cattle magazines in the mail. This got me to the envisioning of my artwork I knew it would included lots of cows, so I cut a bunch of different size cows out and glued them down on paper in different directions. I then decided to add more of a different touch instead of having just cows from magazines. I decided because on our farm our cows love to eat cow and I had just happen to add some popcorn seeds collected for collaging. I added them to my collage to make it stick out more. |
