Monday/Wednesday High School Art II/III - Artwork Rework

 The National Visual Arts Standards are a set of goals created by visual arts educators working with colleagues across the field of arts education. They provide guidelines and expectations for what students should know and be able to do throughout Kindergarten to 12th grade in their state. Two of the standards are to "Individually or collaboratively formulate new creative problems based on student's existing artwork" and to "Reflect on, re-engage, revise, and refine works of art..." Keeping these in mind, students in High School Art II & III either did a new version of one of their past works of art or added to, changed, or created something new from an existing past work of art. Enjoy their before and after photos (the top photo for each student is their "before")!

For my project, I decided to redraw the first page of my sketchbook. I am happy with the anatomy and how much my style has improved.

Here is my purple art with my stick figure human. The grass isn't necessarily grass color and the ark isn't an ark color but it is interesting looking. I added color and a background to my ark.

The feather project was from the beginning of the year but I wasn't satisfied with it. I liked the colors and the idea of it so I turned it into a bird.

I saw the original painting I did and I thought it looked like space so I drew two space ships. The one on the left is from Guardians of the Galaxy and one on the right is Thanos' ship.

My artwork is of a duck named Lenny, who rolled out of a pond to smell some flowers. I used watercolors for the grass, water, and the sky. The duck and the flowers were colored with markers.
