For my ceiling tile, I painted myself with a fork sitting on the edge of a giant bowl of soup because I think this metaphor sums up my life quite nicely. I went with a simplistic design because I'm not very good at painting so I wanting to make sure I didn't add too many details.

For my self portrait, I used pencil and charcoal because I pretty much never draw using color. The reason it looks kind of terrible is because I like to draw on a much smaller scale so I had a lot of trouble with this particular assignment.

This quarter, we worked on two art projects. The first project we did was we made a design and painted it on a ceiling tile. On my ceiling tile, I drew and painted a pop art of Samurai Jack. Samurai Jack is a cartoon character and I chose to draw this because Samurai Jack was a part of my childhood and the art style of the show is what inspired me to become an artist. The hardest part about doing this project was getting the proportions right, I had to sketch and erase a lot in order to ensure I had the proportions correct. It took me over 5 hours to complete this project and I’m proud of it. I love seeing it when I walk onto the third floor every morning.

The second project was my self-portrait. I had a lot of fun doing this because I was able to draw myself in any style I wanted, and I chose a weird one. I decided to draw myself as a caricature because I’ve always viewed myself as not very serious. In the portrait, you’ll notice that I look very sleepy and calm, but happy. I made sure I looked like this because that is how I usually am. Then, for the background, I put my fingerprints all over it. It started out as a mistake, but then I decided that could be my “signature” for the portrait. Using the charcoal was challenging because it takes a level of precision to differentiate between hard and soft lines. Also, the charcoal doesn’t always stick to the paper, sometimes it falls off and becomes smudged on other parts of your drawing. It was still fun. I enjoyed doing this project.

For this marking period we have worked on  two major assignments. These assignments incorporate a ceiling tile and a self portrait of oneself. For my first Assignment I did my ceiling tile based on a huge television series. This is pretty little liars, this show is very mysterious and elevating just like my personality it gives you suspense. My art work took all of the time we were given and over because I needed to perfect it. I chose to paint "A" the mystery girl next to the title to show that no one knows who she is and she is covering her face and she is telling you to keep quiet. 
My second assignment was a self portrait. I chose to draw the picture of when I was at my best friends house after our movie date the day before.It is one of my favorite pictures and it turned out so well. It took one class to draw and to perfect. and i chose to color it in with colored pencils.

Q1 Final Project

Posted by Sherell Messing in Advanced Art · Hull · e2 Band on Friday, November 4, 2016 at 11:29 am

I have always thought the ceiling tiles in our school made the students of SLA unique. The colors literally brighten up the room and spread curiosity, inspiration, and memories. As I gaze around the room I see memories of my childhood represented through cartoons. Everyone has a different representation of what was once, and still might be, meaningful to them. This is why I decided to incorporate Pokémon, from my childhood, and Pokémon Go, from the present, into my ceiling tile. It brings a mixture of realities and memories for the students who are here now and those who will be here in the future. This piece took at least 10 hours to complete.

After some inspiration and a confidence boost I finally completed my self portrait after 3 ½ hours. I love drawing silhouettes but what happens in between those lines is an unsolved mystery. Noses and lips were never my specialty but I tried my best, and I think it came out pretty good for my first self portrait. I used only a number two pencil to create an image of myself by looking at picture that I held in my phone, nothing too special. I will continue to look at this portrait when I doubt my future works knowing that I tried my best and succeeded.

First was the ceiling tile, I chose to draw one of my sticker designs. It was one of my favorite sticker designs because of the monochrome look and constellations. It took around 4 or more hours to complete the ceiling tile. 

The second piece was the self portrait. I used water colored pencils, copic markers, a multiliner and a regular mechanical pencil to color and draw. This drawing took about 4 or more hours to do as well. I chose the picture reference for it based on a friends opinion because I am indecisive.

​The first art assignment that we did were the ceiling tiles. For my ceiling tile I chose to do a nun from the show American Horror Story. I chose to do this because this is my favorite character on my favorite show. I am very proud of how it turned out, It took about 4 class periods to do and 1 class period to perfect and touch up on the red background and freshen up the white paint for the nun.

The second assignment that we did was a self portrait. I chose a photo of me a couple weeks before where I got dressed up to go to a wedding. I chose this photo because it is a very good memory that I want to remember. When I first heard about this assignment I got a lit anxious because when artist draw themselves it's a bad habit that they have to want to change physical features they have to make themselves look more how they would like to look in real life. For this drawing I stuck to the photo I traced the image and got to work. I stayed in a mindset as if someone else was drawing me. Im very surprised on how this turned out and I think this is one of my best pieces that I have ever drawn.
