working hard on the coouter

Still life painting of baseaball, rock, hairbrush, soda can

End of term reflection

This term in art I feel that I have been pretty engaged in my work. Processing my work and the steps I took to get their better helped my get to my final finished product. One big trend that I saw in my work was that I tended to do projects based on things I liked for example maybe baseball. However I feel that sense I did and I know baseball pretty well it was in a sense easier to draw or make a portrait because I knew a bit about what I was drawing. Also the thing I was either drawing or making was about something I liked. This being said I think in many ways it was much easier to stay engaged in my work. I think my most successful work of art was man vs. nature project. I really liked the idea I cam up with and was able to dive right in and make my drawing of birds playing baseball. I feel I was able to make it look like the birds were playing baseball pretty well. I think art will always be in everybody's life whether they like it or not. Art is all around us. From paintings to merials to drawings. I see myself in the future possible taking art again. Art also is in our everyday lives even tho we might not think about by the cloths we wear. From the colors on our pants or shoes or shirt to the design or symbols that might be on them.

Matt Rich



I find this picture interesting because Matt Rich seems to use a lot of shapes in his work. In this picture I believe he was making it of Obama. You can tell that several diffrernt shapes were made in order to make this work of art.

Questions;
1. What inspired you to make art using shapes to creat your designs or images?
2.
