Drawing Peanuts

t


 These are some of my favorite pages from my peanut book. I made the book myself out of some small canvas boards and bristol board for the pages. I used a book that i got from an ART O MAT as inspiration for making the book. I didnt really use a lot of lettering through out the book so i made the last page a lettering page with a poem about peanuts written out three times in lettering. i really like the way that my peanut book turned out. 

Drawing Perspectives

the first time i drew the pictures i did not add enough detail and i didnt like the way the pencil smeared and looked dirty, so i redid all of them in pen and added a lot more detail and i like the way the second ones turned out.

Sections

This was frustrating because of all the very small lines at the bottom of the building. it was hard to measure all of the lines and then change the scales because some of them were so small and so close together. I like the way it looked before i did the Poche on the roof.

Floor Plan with lettering

Orthographic Cubes

Perspective cubes

Shadow

perspective desk and rooms

This was sort of hard because i could not really figure out how to make things in perspective in the middle of the rooms so i ended up just putting things around the outside of the room near the walls to make it easier to put into one and two point perspective

Conveying Depth

I really like the way that the top, which was the second drawing on vellum turned out. I enjoyed having the freedom to place trees and bushes in different places and making it look more interesting. I like doing this type of drawing a lot more than floor plans and sections.

Floor Plan

Google Earth

This assignment was to find your house on google earth and draw a site plan for it. I found this to be very difficult because i had a hard time with the topo lines.

Site Plans

These are the two site plans we did in class the top one is with the buildings dark and the ground light and the bottom one is the buildings are light and the ground is dark. i think that the bottom one looks better because there is more detail.

twigs and cell phones

This was the last part of the assignment, we had to draw 4 drawings. these are my favorite two of the four drawings.

twigs and cell phones

this was when we had to draw 8 images. i like all the squares except the second one in the top row. i wish i would have left the twigs white and not made them solid black.

twigs and cell phones

for this one we had to draw 16 thumbnails. at this point i really started to layer both the twigs and the cell phones together in one box. i like the way this one turned out more than the drawing 8 squares.

twigs and cell phones

at this point we had to draw the sticks and cell phones combined 32 times. i like the way this turned out. by the time i finished this set of drawings i was getting more interested with combining and layering.

twigs and cell phones

this is the second part of the assignment when we had to draw the cell phones and twigs 64 times. i really like the way my cell phone thumbnails turned out because the contrast makes it really interesting. at this point you can still tell that they are drawings of cell phones.

twigs and cell phones

this is the first part of the process when we had to draw 16 pictures of twigs. these 6 were my favorite.

Rain Boots

This was on a rainy day, it was cold and i was not in the mood to draw rain boots. but i did like the way the words rain boots turned out.

Drawing Layers

For this we were supposed to focus on drawing layers by drawing contours of our classmates across from us. i found this to be pretty hard.
