I decided to paint watercolor fruit for my artists observe project. I decided to paint fruit because we always have colorful fruit in a fruit bowl at home that I always admired. For my medium I chose watercolor because when I was little we used to paint it at my grandmas house. My art is a combination of things I know, and remeber.
A couple weeks ago, Mr. Sands showed us a video of this artist named Katie (color me Katie) who did a bunch of street art. Our idea for our "color me Katie" project was to make a window decal. We happened upon a really creepy picture of Kim Kardashian and the rest was history.... After we hung it in the hall, a lot of people noticed Kim. We even found a tweet. About two weeks ago, our teacher put assorted bottles, cans and vases on the table and we drew them. After our first sketch was complete, he told us to use another medium, or draw it in a different way. I chose to take a picture of it on my phone. It was really cool to see how taking a picture of something at a new angle completely changed the shape and size of the object.
