So far, I haven't done a whole lot in terms of projects this month. I started out by doing a lot of sketching. Then we started the boundary project. It took me a while to come up with an idea but I finally decided to do buildings underwater. I wanted to take a risk with this and make the waves clear and for it to be a more basic drawing and just have the two concepts overlap. Incorporating a city and waves together was a really cool concept to me because they are such different things and it is breaking many boundaries by putting them together because people obviously cant live underwater and sea animals don't go into buildings. I decided to draw using oil pastels because I felt it would be the most realistic. The first time I made my drawing I made all the buildings black. Then I unfrotunately misplaced it and had to start over. I put a little more thought into making it creative. Someone gave me the idea of adding a little more color to the city. I thought about this and decided to make each building a different color. In the end the drawing wwas a lot more vibrant and I feel like it shows the boundary even more distinctly. I ended up really liking the final piece even though it was more basic and not a challenge. It helped me develop skill and solve problems when I couldn't find my original piece. It was kind of nice to not put a lot of effort into my art and just mess around for once and I ended up really liking the messiness of my work. It made it stand out more and a lot more orignal and I enjoyed doing it. I'm excited to continue trying new things.
