Ferreira - Completed Scratchboard Project
"The Watchers"
This scratchboard project was a challenge for me in several ways, primarily it took a long time to add enough detail in the brick to get it the brightness I wanted. I liked how the original image was but I made it more abstract through purposefully skewing some of the windows/buildings and adding figures. I wish I had taken this approach from the start, I would've been done much faster I think.

Ferreira - Choice Boards 3 and 4
The artist I chose for my 3rd choice board was Laurent Lemoigne, a french designer and digital artist. He creates these crazy, trippy, surreal portraits of people and animals fused with technology. You have to see it to understand, here's some examples.
I was originally going to go for "striped" for CB4 but I found myself leaning more towards definition. Having stark, contrasting lines sort of brings emphasis to the crudeness and nature of the content. Again, a little dark but I like it. This one actually took me the longest because I could not figure out how to draw the hand.

Jill Bale - Hybrid Project
I took both a thumbnail sketch and a print I made in my printmaking class. I really like how the white of the face stands out with the neon background.

Ferreira - Completed AP Alphabet!
I'm really proud of how this turned out! I know I expected to do a hybrid digital-physical piece but doing it all digitally showed me my strength is definitely in 2d digital design as opposed to physical mediums. Of course I still like to do physical art but I wouldn't have been as proud as I am of this if I had done it because I find I have more freedom to tweak and change things to my exact liking than if I was doing, say, watercolor or pastel for my letters. This project also showed me my favorite kinds of style to produce. I liked the challenge of the fine detail and texture (I-T), but I feel I had more fun in the more trippy and dark alley (V-?), which I hope to pursue further in my central focus projects this year.

| I wasn't sure which one I preferred, so here are the two I am deciding on. I would appreciate if you could comment which one is your favorite. |
Bale - choice board 4 - design principle:line
I was looking at Sol LeWitt's work and saw his black and white usage of lines and I thought it looked really cool. I also decided to add in the 3 purple lined to make something stick out!
