Heyyyy remember when I said I was completely overhauling my art style in the last post? Yeah- I’m going back to facial basics and eyeshapes. I’m in no way happy with how it’s going but just means I’ll have to go back to the reference board and reevaluate!
Also no matter how much I try to fix it the image won’t flip the right way- not sure why. Guess it’s just kinda stuck upside down?? Whoops!

Egg drawing!
How long did it take you to make this drawing?
A: without trying to set up, maybe a hour and a half? with set up- maybe 2 and a half hours.
What have you learned about drawing?
A: I really need to expand with my drawing style- It barely has changed besides slowly understanding anatomy and clothing folds more. A friend gave me constructive criticism saying the same thing so I know it’s not just me getting in my head.
What have you learned about yourself as an artist?
A: If I have a character I really like, chances are I’m going to draw them a lot. Like a lot a lot- Almost this entire year has me drawing one character- which is great but towards the end of this semester I’ve been trying to branch moreso off to other characters and not just focus on one.
What do you plan to continue to work on as you continue your journey as an artist?
A: A complete overhaul of my style- or rather a reconsideration. Of course baby steps so I’m boiling it down to it’s basics and redoing it. Plus I’d like to get better at drawing different body types, I feel like I’m constantly drawing only two types, muscular and slightly less muscular. Which frusterates me because not everyone’s bodies have that exact look, I’ve got to branch out more. Like more thin body types or plus size people! Plus I have to relearn how to draw women because I’ve been so focused on getting men down because a while back I realized I couldn’t draw them well and now I’m having the opposite problem.
But art is a journey and I’m more than down for the ride! Yes it can be annoying at times and have a lot of problems but it’s fun and it’s a way to express myself! I just wish I had more time to draw, life’s a little too busy at the moment, it’s hard to find time unfortunately. And judging from how my life’s going, I doubt that will be changing anytime soon. But it’s alright, just got to try a little harder!
Question of the week:
What does it mean to be a Christian artist?
I think being a Christian artist means making art to show to god and to satisfy the inner creativity everyone has. I’ve heard of people using the phrasing to “glorify him” so I think that sounds right
Drawing from our practice in class bringing in objects ourselves to draw!
I’ve been trying to post these for the past week and have been having immense problems with my internet but lets hope this time it works!

Questions of the Week
Can art be functional? If so, what functions can art serve?
What role does art play in our society? What role does art play in the church?
Art can serve a function to vent out frusterations and emotions from the artist or convey information to an audience. Or in more of a practical sense, something like a decorative table can still serve the purpose of holding up objects and still be art.
Art plays the role of telling stories to our society or shedding light on issues we wouldn’t have seen otherwise. Art plays the same role within the church.
Question of the Week:
How do the materials used to make art influence the meaning of the work?
Different materials can provide different emotional responses that could influence the meaning of the work. Like using heavy and thick paint rather than pencil or graphite has a different emotional connotation with what you draw/paint.
Question of the Week:
What do artists choose to work with the human figure? What ideas can an artist convey through the human figure? How?
Artists can use the human figure to convey emotions in ways that are familiar to us such as crying or laughing and other such things or use it to express other emotions that are familiar to us but are harder to explain.
Question of the Week:
What’s abstraction good for? Describe some of the reasons why artists might employ abstraction in their work.
Abstraction is good for not focusing on the accuracy and details of a object and rather it’s meaning in the context of the painting or emotion behind it. For example if a artist is more focused on the interpretation or meaning behind their art they may choose for something more abstract so any realism doesn’t detract from the painting’s purpose
Questions of the Week:
How have the tools and materials of artists changed over time?
Who decides what is beautiful?
Tools and materials have given us new mediums over time such as digital art becoming a medium as technology progressed, tools and materials have changed how people see art
Everyone decides what is beautiful to them, but no one can decide it for them.

Question of the Week:
Must an artist have an identifiable style? What are the benefits of having or not having a style?
I think a artist doesn’t necessarily need a style but one can form naturally without the artist realizing it. Because we all draw differently and have our own quirks with drawing, artists can naturally form one sometimes, even if it is ever-changing and improving. The benefits to having a style is almost like having your style be your signature. People can see your artwork at a glance and guess it was you based on previously seeing your work.

Question of the Week:
How do the social identities of the artist relate to the work of art they create?
The social identities of the artist can influence what art they may put out. They can put out art that revolves around their social identities and what they believe in and fight for or have subtle nods to such things in their pieces

Question of the Week:
What is the role of the viewer of an artwork?
The role of the viewer of an artwork is to decide their own personal meaning to the art they are viewing. It could be as simple or complicated but they find their own meaning to the art.
