Art Rage

 

 

In the previous art class we explored Art Rage. These are some of the images I made. I had my already take picture of my objects as one layer on Art Rage, and then “painted” on top.

I think the app was pretty easy to use. It was quick and u could change the textures and pressure easily. I think it takes some time learning all the tricks and being able to use all of the tools.

My favorite of the three images I made is the one with the nail polish and the clock lying inside the cap. I think it was an interesting twist to the image. If this is the position I am keeping for the final piece, I think it will be a little bit hard to fill up all the space without making it all super big, but I am sure I will figure it out.

The next time I use Art Rage I would like to experiment some more with the different tools and their effects.

 



Multiple Compositions

In class today we worked some more with our thumbnails and how to use different electronic tools on the app ArtRaige. We used our already made thumbnails for guidance on the composition of our objects. We set our 3 different objects in various positions and took pictures of them with the schools iPads. We added layers and made color settings etc. on the app ArtRaige, which allows you to use many different techniques and settings for your work. It was fun playing with different tools on the iPad, but I am not sure how much I personally learned from it.

These pictures were some of my favorites, looking at the composition and effects. One the first one i really liked how when you see the cap from the front, you can kind of see under it or inside it. I think that is an element that made the picture more interesting to look at. If i use the number one as my sketch I think I would consider to see it from event farther down. I think the picture number two was fun and playful, with the clock balanced on the hem of the cap. I also really like when one object is in extreme close up, as I said in the previous blog post about the five thumbnails. I think I will be using one of these as my sketch for the final piece.

Thumbnails

in class we learned about different and exiting ways to compose your ojects in a still life drawing or painting. we drew thumbnails to see a variety of ways to place our objects. the homework was to look at five other artists' work, write down which way the presented their object or objects, and then try to get inspriation for how to do it with our own objects.
i think the drawing With the shoe was really helpful and make an interesting twist to the drawing. i also like the though about bringing in a pattern as a layer on top of your object.
i dont think this is an exercise i will be using a lot on my own in the future, but im sure it gave me some ideas as to what would be interesting to look at, and how to composment of your drawing can matter.
