Watercolour Assignment | Great Blue Heron

~December 2020

Gr11 watercolour painting assignment. Painted a great blue heron I pictured in the pond near my house.

Painted the background first, but had to lift a lot of the colour because it was too vibrant before.

I used masking tape to mask out the spots of the foreground plants, but it bled a lot and I didn't save as much of the white space as I should've.

Second image is watercolour practice I did beforehand. Used some of the tips from a watercolour art book I'd been gifted

Little painting I made during a paint night with my family. Was me playing around with specialized colour palettes.

This was for some sort of challenge thing, but I can't remember what.

Uhhh, yeah, don't really know what's going on in this drawing 😭

Art Summative

December 26, 2021 - January 9, 2022

Final project for gr11 art that I did finish, but never submitted because they did a goofy thing where our summatives couldn't lower our marks.

Uhhh, ig I don't have any pictures of the finished project? It was a whole illusion thing of a hallway. I wasn't too happy with it when I first did it, but it's a solid idea. Prolly gonna revisit the illusion in the future, not sure if I'd take a stab at making this exact scene again.

Emotive Mask Project

Grade 5 - 2015/2016

Wait this was supposed to be the first post??? I didn't get around to cleaning it up until ~3 weeks after I'd queued up all of the tumblr posts 😭

Ig I'll see how making the post date in the past works >:)

Anyways what I can remember of the prompt was that we were supposed to make masks that represent a specific emotion. We were in pairs and I did it with my friend.

Making it out of wood was not a requirement, but I'd gotten it in my head and I knew my dad wld be able to cut the wood for me 😋I made a paper mockup, and then my dad took care of cutting and gluing together the pieces. Two masks were made, one for my friend and one for me.

iirc, the emotion I was going for was happiness, but it really doesn't read that way. There used to be paper fluff stuff hanging from the back, but the birds ate that stuff up. They also bit a whole bunch of chunks into it 😭

I don't remember what happened for it to break that badly. Prolly fell

Rock I painted at a little event during WW at uni. Just did my default paint/draw something with a lot of teeth and eyes when I was coming up w an idea on the spot.

Gotta go back and clean this guy up sometime, he's a bit crusty.

I actually finished this one on oct 8 (i almost forgot about it). I did forget to send it in the discord until the next morning, though xd

I have problems with the front wing, but considering I just jumped into the drawing w no preamble it's fiiiiiiine

Hellboy | Angel of Death

I LOVE this guy's design. Go crazy every time they're on screen.

Mannn Guillermo del toro is so good at what he does. The special fx / costume design in so many of his movies is top tier ugh 😩👌

I'm so sad he didn't make a hellboy 3 and instead it got rebooted :(((((

Forever wounded 😔👊
