Perspective Game Drawings

Today was Game Day for Art One students at Apex HS Art. Board games were brought in, set up and yes, played... for a bit and then we pulled out our sketchbooks and did what any civilized art class would do…

We sketched them using our newly learned perspective techniques! Yay!

Next week we will complete full color drawings based on Game day.. Stay tuned!!

3D Anamorphosis Drawings : Part 2

 

The Art 1 students are starting off with Anamorphasis drawings for our Pespective unit. Students chose an ordinary object and distorted it in Photoshop.

If you look at the drawing of the box (below) you can see that it is elongated and wider at the top. When the objects are draw this way it allows for the viewer to look at it from a different angle and it will look as if it is coming out of the paper. 3D in fact!

All the other photos represent the objects coming to life off of the paper just by photographing it at a different perspective. Look for more examples on our facebook page Facebook.com/ApexHighArt .

Gift Cards : Part 1

Gift Card Design Challenge

After completing a tutorial or two on fonts and brushes, the computer art class was tasked with designing gift cards using a limited color palette and of course, custom brushes.

More Light Graffiti

Created these light graffiti paintings using a long camera exposure and some big, fat glow sticks. 

Light Graffiti

 

Stencils.. They're not just for breakfast anymore.. or, uh spray paint. They work really well when painting with light. This is our first round of light graffiti painting. The first three images were actually painted using a cellphone. The rest were painted with glow sticks.
