This was a project with the guides of only using two values of shade, being obviously black and white, and creating a unique design showcasing knowledge in fundamental elements and principles in design.
Pixelated Self-Portrait – Fifteen-tone Value Art Piece
This project had the guideĀ of using 15 specific tones of value to create a self-portrait using a desaturated and pixelated image of myself as an example. This was to judge tonal sensitivity without introducing the concept of hue to allow for more in-depth experience with the concept of tone.
Droplets of Amsterdam – Inspiration Art Piece
In this project, I was given the task of seeking out an inspirational piece of historical art to model my own art piece after. I chose an obscure ink drawing by Rembrandt, which was one of many in a series of sketches of Amsterdam and other Nederland landscapes and architectural fortifications known simply as “The New Town-Hall in Amsterdam”. It depicts a new building recently installed in the center of the large open area, now removed. Amsterdam is often cloudy and precipitating, so I decided to be accurate in my piece. I used half ink for the droplets, indicating the past that Rembrandt saw, and half paint, indicating the lively present.
Hand of Man – Subtractive 3D Art Piece
This was a 3D project in which I was tasked to create a sculpture by subtracting or carving materials away from an existing block. I modeled the piece after my previous digital work, “Hand of God”.
Truncated Icosahedron – Paper Cutting 3D Art Piece
In this Project, I was tasked to create a 3D object by assemblingĀ 2D shapes. I’m very familiar with polyhedrons, so I decided to make a soccer ball my object of choice. In 2D, I cut 20 equally-sized white hexagons and 10 equally-sized black pentagons. Then I assembled them in two semi-spheres, or bowls, and pieced them together.
Brittle Heart – Additive 3D Art Piece
This was a 3D project in which I was tasked to create a sculpture by adding materials together.
