A semester of painting!

So I have never really liked  painting (it was always acrylic) but over the past semester, I was introduced to oil paints. They were so much fun and I want ti keep them up as much as possible.  Here are my paintings in order of when they were made.

The following are gestural sketches from the performance of Winsor McCay's Little Nemo in Slumberland performed by the Children's opera in Sarasota. We were allowed to attend a dress rehearsal and sketch from the audience.

 

The last part is the master copies we had to do for homework.

Sophomore year cont. and finished

WELL what a year! So now for the dumping of my art (:

A semester of photos-

 This year, I started (what hopefully will be) my photography minor. It was a vary basic intro course on how to use the camera, set up compositions, etc. 

The first assignment was just to experiment/ understand the camera (aperture shifts, shutter speed and different points of view). The following are images from those first assignments.

 

My next project was to take pictures at multiple times a day (7am, 10am, noon, 3pm, 7pm and dark) to learn more about lighting. The following are my favorite of each.

Project number four was an interrupted landscapes, and it was my favorite assignment.

The subject for project four was an environmental portrait. I focused mine on the different majors.

For our final, we had a photo essay assignment. We had the option of doing a narrative or a documentary. I chose to do a documentary on two of my friends, Dee G. and Sara G. My topic was them as a couple. I chose to use sound and have them speak over the images instead of just text. 

I'm not sure how good the quality of the video is, but the following are the pictures I used for the project.
