I did a media study of Monet's "Bridge over pond of water lillies" completely out of Sharpie. I though it was a new and interesting media to study. I love this painting and Monet's work. I think his use of vibrating brush strokes and impressionism is amazing. another thing i love about him is how his brush strokes depict the fluctuations of light. And also how his paintings evoke a sense of immediacy.

I did a media study of Degas "Ballerinas" using charcoal. It was so much fun to use and i like to get messy when i do art. When i saw this painting, it evoked a sense of mystery as well as tranquility.

I did an observational drawing of my dad while he was sleeping. He just underwent surgery and i was taking care of him while my mom was in New York. He fell asleep so i decided to draw him. I think it came out well.

I did a painting of "the Scream". I used water colors. I really tried to match the colors exactly. I tried to use different strokes as well.
<--- I did an observational drawings of my friend Ashley. She was actually sleeping while i did this. We had a movie night and she passed out on the couch. I couldn't help but take the opportunity to draw her.
