Value Study




This was my figure value study piece. As you can see figure drawing isn't really my thing. I decided to practice forshortening for the next project with this one. Not my favorite, but it's alright.

Synthetic Cubism


Thsi was my Synthetic Cubism project. I used five found papers as well as watercolor. To make the flower i just crumpled paper. Thanks to everyone for background ideas!

Analytical Cubism



This was my Analytical Cubism project. I wouldn't say it's exactly cubism but i didn't want to draw a plain still life so i used a broken mirror effect. The flower could use a little bit of work but overall i like the outcome.

Natural Encaustic




This was my encaustic project. I used wax and melted pastels on top of a collage. Then i added string and "natural" objects on top. I really like how my colors turned out. This was one of my favorite projects so far.

RWB




Theses are my experimental encaustic wax pieces. I made collages like below and incorporated string and other objects. Then i covered them with paraffin wax. I also used melted oil pastels for the color. And of course they're tiny...sorry.

These are collages that i was going to use for encaustic waxing. I didn't get to finishthem but they make decent collages. Sorry it's so small...

RWB


This is a page i did in my research workbook. I used oil pastels and a found image as well as hemp string. Not sure why the picture is so small...
