Illustration 3: In-class work

Hello!  Here are some of the in-class and other assignments that we have done in my acrylic painting class.  We had a lot of fun trying new things in class and keeping ourselves creative.


This assignment involved using visual metaphors.  I was working on using light washes to give it a dusty look.
I tried something new and used gold foil to emphasize the "halo" aspect of the lasso!

This was our very first assignment in this class-- I was just trying to get the hand of acrylics.  I realized during this piece that I needed to buy some much smaller brushes (those paper lines are thin!).

This was an in-class project.  We were working off very old photographs and using layers of washes.


We experimented with collage in class too!  It was fun creating different patterns and colors and putting them all together.


We used fashion photos and film stills to create color palettes and composition studies.
I forgot my palette the day we did the color studies so I used a piece of watercolor paper.  It ended up looking like art itself!
