My Drawing of a Stuffed Toy...

Hello Again! This is my 20-minute drawing of a stuffed toy. It's my fluffy puppy stuffed toy at home.. I am quite proud of this. It took a long~~ time (way more than 20 minutes, to be honest) to draw in all the fur, but I finished it in the end! Some parts are blurry in this picture; scanning isn't the best to put up pictures, but still!! The texture was the main theme in this picture, so I really tried to bring out its fluffiness by drawing the fur lightly. Also, its eyes and nose were important, deciding on its impression, so I put quite an effort in its face, too. Well, what do you think??? =D

20th- Today at Art.. What Did We Do?!?!?!

Today I created a background, using watercolour inks, glue, coloured tissue paper and a piece of newspaper. We glued on the piece of newspaper onto the paper, and painted it with 3 colours, adding bits of coloured tissue paper to make it more interesting. This meant we created the colour and texture, the elements of art. It was important to know how much the paints were diluted; because some shades were too dark or too light. I used yellow, blue and black as the main colours, and sprinkled some pink paint to make it look more interesting. I also stuck small bits of orange tissue paper to give texture as well as slight focal points. I was quite satisfied with the colours I used; yellow, blue and black go well together, in my opinion.

We also learnt about a famous American pop artist, called Andy Warhol. His works were modern yet artistic and unique. He did many of the silver prints(??), and I liked the drawings of the cans of soup, even though at first I wasn't sure why that was art. I hope I can see more of his works someday.

The end of my Art reflection for today!!

The photo below is the example I am showing of pop art- Not really a piece of artwork; just a photo from the Apple laptop, but it still looks similar!!!!! XD

My Fave Animals... Yeah!! =]

DOLPHIN:

Dophins are one of my favourite animals! That's why I chose it as one of my top three animals for the mask. These photos show differnt parts of the dophin's body; its face, fins and the structure of the body. The face is quite interesting, with its large mouth and small teeth. Also it has a blowhole on top of its head.

Dolphins have many positive characteristics. They are well known as one of the most intelligent animals. They are very playful, friendly and affectionate, but protective of those whom they care for. They love swimming (they do it for everyday, obviously) and they are always inquisitive about things. They have strong social bonds, being cooperative with each other.

DOG (GOLDEN RETRIEVER)

Dogs are my favourite-favourite!!! There are so many differnet kinds, but I chose the golden retriever, because one of my friends told me it was very loyal.

It is friendly to familiar ones and strangers, patient, kind, warm and active. It is also known to be confident, trusting, gentle, calm, intelligent, eager to please, competitive and great with children, which makes it a great family pet. When I was researching these characteristics, I imagined different colours and tones which I could express its characteristics with. I think I would use warm colours, since one of its characteristics is being warm to everyone. Here are some photos of this ado~~~~rable creature!!! XD

PENGUIN:

I always loved penguins, but after the movie Happy Feet, I fell in love with them even more. The way they walk and their cuteness are so~ cute to me!! They are my third favourite animal.

Penguins' characteristics were quite hard to research, but I managed to find a few in the end. They are very graceful in water, and it's a well-known fact that they are excellent swimmers. They are gentle, but they can get aggressive in certain situations, and also become nervous when something approached them that is not familiar. However, they don't have a specific fear of humans. They also like to show off a lot (:]) but they love their children a lot. Their sacrifices and protections to the eggs are very sweet. :)

Well, here are some photos of the penguins as well!
