My most successful art work for this semester is the black and white painting, because I think I did a very good jobon it and I took my time and got done. The lines are some what straight and brush strokes are pretty clean. My least successful art work is the shapes and space, because there are white spots everywhere and it is not line up correctly and the paper is not completely filled and there is some tissue paper hanging off the edge of the paper. This project allowed me to see how lights and darks can come together and make a better painting then just putting colors everywhere and it looks more realistic then just coloring it to. This project makes me want to paint more with black white and gray paintings. Brandon

I chose this design because I love to deer hunt and I didn't want to do anything that everybody does when they do something about hunting like they do camouflage or something but I did a deer skull with real stuff like pine needles and grass and corn stalks and stuff I didn't just paint it on there. The decisions I had making my mask was that I had to make sure that the deer and horns lined up and that the deer skull wasn't to skinny and that it was for the most part straight or in the middle of the mask. Then I had to figure out what I wanted for my background and when I figured it out what color I was going to paint it. Then I had to figure out how to put the pine needles and other stuff on like I had to lay it out in my head and see what I wanted to do with all that stuff, but I finally figured it out and I think it looks good the way it is. I think my mask is done and I don't want to change it because I love how it turned out and I just want to hang it up on my wall. I think it really express how I feel and it turned out the way I wanted it to.
