Wildcard Wednesday #36

This week, we can expect: an animation (yay!), and some schoolwork sketches.
(Also, my apologies for not posting Saturday-it was a busy week, I had a friend and my sis over for the week, and I lost track of time)


Animation Exercise 1: I had my first animation class three nights ago, and my teacher's already got us animating. The object of this exercise was to start with a ball, transform it into something else, and then back to a ball again in thirty drawings. And this was the result! This was so much fun, and there will definitely be more of these to come.

School Sketch #1: For my Electronic Media class, I have to keep a sketchbook. This week I had to draw from master paintings that employed the use of chiaroscuro, and then I was to work with actual subjects for further chiaroscuro sketches. George de la Tour's Magdalene with a Smoking Flame has always been one of my favorite paintings. I tried a new style of drawing for the chiaroscuro sketches - rather than do line work like I usually do with drawings, I just focused on the shadows.

School Sketch #2: Another chiaroscuro sketch, this time with my mom as the subject.

School Sketch #3: Another chiaroscuro drawing, based on a self portrait by Rembrandt.
