The three drawings my storyboard is based from.
Arcana the Forest Spirit
Material: Bristo paper, Ink
Size: 9 x 12 in
Description: My project tells a story of a cat named Arcana, she is forest spirit that protects her forest. While she was monitoring her forest she noticed that there was someone lost so Arcana decides to help her find her way home.
Material: Vine Charcoal, Charcoal Pencil, Orange Cante
Size: 18 x 24in
Description: While listening to music blind folded, I let my hand take control and sketched the rhythm of the songs. I used different lines, values, shapes and texture to create structure and flow.
Medium: Charcoal, Sepia, White Cante crayon, Ink
Size: 18 x 24 in 9 x 12 in
Description: For the first drawing I studied the human skull in order to draw a self portrait using charcoal, sepia, and white cante crayon. For the second project
Pearl
Process
Medium: Acrylic paint, clay
Size: 7 x 6 in
Description: This project is based on the song Pearl written by Mitski. I destroyed a book named Pearl and reconstructed it to show the vulnerabilty of the narrator and how she longs for love even though she has it. This sculpture encompass two lyrics “and it left a pearl in my hand and I roll it around, everynight just to watch it glow.” and “There is a hole that you fill.”. While sculpting the skin I was also referencing another lyric from her song Liquid Smooth, “I’m liquid smooth, come touch me too, and my skin is plump and full of life, I’m in my prime.”. I didn’t make the skin smooth to show satire, I wanted to exagerate how her skin is plump and full of life by making the veins pop out to convey how desperate she is to find that missing piece.
Recycled Being
Materials:
Backstory: Meet Dolly, she was once a Victorian burlesque dancer on her planet. She was known for spinning on her fishnet leg, illuminating rainbows making her a sensation. She got enough recognition that she designed her own signature feathery head piece.
Quiet Piece
Description: Using a charcoal pencil I illustrated various shades to showcase different patterns and textures. I did this by paying special attention to values and not erasing
Medium: Charcoal and eraser
Size: 18x 24in
Description: For this project I used the process of spreading charcoal all over my paper then erasing shapes to reveal objects.
Medium: Charcoal pencil 2B
Size: 18x24in
Description: With this project I used a charcoal pencil to illustrate the spaces between objects inside my cabinet. By outlining these spaces, the image of the objects came out. This method is extremely important to master since its the fundamentals of proportion.
Compassion Poster
Medium: Mixed media, watercolor, duct tape
Size: 9 x 12in
Description: My poster aims to help foreign woman that are trapped in abusive relationships. I want these women to be able to recognize the abuse in their relationship and have compassion for themselves to help themselves. A lot of the time these women are stuck in these relationships for the fear of deportation or just not knowing that there is a way out. However the free website I provided is able to help them get citizenship and find affordable help nearby.
