Module #1

(The one on the left got a little messed up, I forgot to put paper in between the pages and some oil pastel from the paper on the right got on it)

  1. Thanks for posting Kelsey-Rose! How did you like the assignment? I looks like you and Alecia both had some fun with it! That's great to see!

    I'm glad to see that you took a couple of different approaches.... you used characters to illustrate ideas, but then with delicate you used a flower and with "Forever and Never" you were more abstract with your approach.

    Do you have a favorite? My personal favorite is "Comfortable and Uncomfortable." I appreciate the humor and how you decided to illustrate the words by putting your characters in "environments" and adding details like the sweat! It really made me as a viewer feel those sensations.

    Did this exercise give you any ideas for future pieces? Or get you thinking of different ways to approach your image-making?

    Something I would encourage you to do is to think about incorporating some collage elements as well. Remember this is a sketchbook - ideas don't have to be fully formed - it's a place where you can experiment and challenge yourself in different ways than you do in more "finished" work.

  2. Yes I had fun with it! It was nice to just do them quickly without thinking too much (sort of like an exercise!) because sometimes I over think things.
    My favourite to draw was the "Comfortable and Uncomfortable" one.
    I will try to experiment with collages, as I am for the current assignment!
