1. Upload the three (3) inspiration images to your Blog (or link to your Photobucket account). Explain why you selected the inspiration pieces.

During my research this mask attracted my attention because of its shape, the eyes being a different colors and its obnoxious smile. The fact that the shape of the face seems to be bloated at the bottom makes it seem disproportionate which I think makes the viewer feel uncomfortable which is the point.

I liked this mask because it reminded me of the Bleach anime that I used to watch when I was younger. I also chose this mask because of the vibrant red and white color. I also have a cat so I love cats so of course I choose anything cats. The simple line designs add to the contrast of the face.

This Naurto mask is what mostly inspired my mask because it isn't traditional it doesn't have an eye hole or a breathing hole it's just a mask that covers the face. This mask has balance because of all the textures and how the two colors go together.

03. Upload images of your sketchs and finished piece.
This is my first sketch that I didn't finish because it wasn't as good as I anticipated it.

This is my final sketch which is so much better. As you can see I didn't exactly include any holes for breathing and I did take the shape of the first mask. I didn't color it or do anything fancier because I felt like it would take over the shapes that I drew on the face. Another element that I borrowed from the first mask was half of the face being slightly different than the other.
5. Share your opinion of your finished mask and what you thought about creating the mask.
Creating my own mask was fun yet difficult. It was fun doing the research and seeing many different designs, it was fun letting my creativity flow and have my own design but it was also difficult to not fully copy another piece..

These types of colors are the types that cause different emotions depending on how you look at it. For example: red may be looked at as a elegant and fierce color, but in some images it may be used to describe anger or distress.  2. What is a theoretical aspect of color that most intrigues/fascinates you? Why? -A theoretical aspect of color that fascinates me is that some words or school subjects have a color registered in our minds. Also that some colors can make us feel hungry. This is interesting because I've never thought of it in this depth. The furthest I thought of a color was "What's your favorite color?" or "Does this color go with me?" 3. In the Color video, what made the biggest impact on you in regards to color and it's effects on emotions? -The bi...

Module 9

1. Explain why you selected each of the TWO videos you choose from the selection listed above. I chose these videos based on the med evil time period of art. I chose Albrecht Durer: Image of a master because I've always heard stories about him.  2. For each video list/discuss the key concepts you learned. Sea Holly (a plant) signifies a groom-to-be. For an "enamel-like finish" Durer added 6-7 coats of the paint 2. How do the videos relate to the readings in the text? Velazquez was very good at blending. In the book we learned about artist' life influencing their art.  3. What is your opinion of the films? How do they add depth to understanding of the readings and art concepts?I''m enjoying these videos so far because they give me an inside look into an artist personal life which helps us understand their painting on a deeper level. I find it very interesting "learning" about artists that are so old that our records about them either ar...
