This is progress on my home project (first three pictures). The next is the progress (and completion!) of my in class project.
My home project is going ok, but I didn't work on it as much as I wanted to so I could get my in class project done. I'm still trying to figure out how I want to paint the text. My in class project was...disappointing. The process was basically taking a picture of the face, drawing in pencil the general outline, inking it, watercoloring it, cutting it out, and taping up the individual parts of the faces. Cassette tape was then put up around the heads coming from the mouth, fastened with scotch tape. I was really ambitious going into it (12 portraits! amazing final product!) but in the end I feel like it's just underwhelming. I think I'm going to stick to art confined to a piece of paper (like not having sculptural elements to it) from now on; this was not fun. I hung up my piece on the 3rd floor, and I don't think I'll do that again either. The portraits took me a lot longer than I thought; my desire for them to conform to their real life inspiration prolonged the entire process a lot. In the end, I think the whole thing could have been better executed. The whole thing and the final product has a sort of rushed/half-done feel to it, even though it took so long to finish.
