Through this project the toughest thing for me personally was coming up with all the different ideas. For the tag logo it took my partner and I a whole day just to stretch it out. Then there was the problem of the stretch was so perfect,so how were we go to get it over to the final paper because its to thick to put underneath and trace it. So we used a pencil and covered the back with pencil and redraw the design and add are personal touches to it. For my whole tag you see that I split it up into five different spaces. The first two (soccer and basketball) are sport I love to play. The middle one Music show different bands I have listened to and in the background is the lyres to Journey's song Don"t Stop Believe. Because of the month I was born in I have fall and Halloween. They are also my favorite season and holiday. Now I have the best for last. The story behind the tag is both my partner and I have the same birthdays, so October was shortened to Oct and we are both born on the four. We also made it so it was Halloweenish with the red and blood, but at the same time it has that fall feel to it too.
The world that I am growing up in is the most diverse world that we have ever know. This also effects how different the art is different in different cultures. The first picture is the morale with three wall. This is from Greece. This was paint to show nature right around spring time in a city in Ancient Greece. This is important to there culture because the city it was found in was destroyed by a volcano in the early years of the Geek empire.The second picture is of cooking pots from an African tribe during the late iron age. The third picture is of a scroll which tell story of sadness and happiness thought out japan's early history. Each of these show different way of how artists have have give the world beauty and how each culture has a different use and story behind it. My goal for this project was to show how different art in different cultures can be and how at the some time they show what it was like to live during that time or place. I KNOW THAT YOU CAN'T SEE THE WORDS. I AM WORKING ON IT.
For my presenting project I chose to do a themed one about Vincent Van Gogh. I chose some of my favorite from his different paintings through out his life time. I like this because I got to find out different things about paint that interested me. I also got to learn about the emotion and thought process behind them. For example how same of his later painting were painted to help stop him from going insane. |
