MP1 Sketchbook Page Review
I chose to highlight this page from the Dada unit because I felt like it was the best work I have done in my sketchbook so far. I am not very good at drawing so I didn't want to showcase a piece I drew. My page is random so that it fits in the Dada aesthetic but it also showcases some of the things I love such as Drake, my favorite rapper and Jay-Z who is one of the pioneers in the rap game so I only felt it was right to put his picture in my collage. This piece stands out compared to all of the other pieces because it mixes dark colors like black and grey with bright eye-attracting colors like the bright pink lips as well as the yellow lemons. I think this page would get positive feedback from my peers because I feel like this piece is very modern and I think my fellow students will appreciate that.
MP2 Sketchbook Page Review
I chose another collage to highlight in this marking period because I feel like this was my best work in my sketchbook. My drawing skills are coming along with every little bit that I learn but I don't feel like they are quite up to par yet. To create this collage I used ads and pictures from various magazines that I found in a bin in the computer art room. I was really fortunate in my findings because I was able to collect lots of pictures of brands and people that I enjoy such as Chloé and Blake Lively from the CW show Gossip Girl. This page stands out and is my favorite because of the differing colors and textures in the piece. The theme I want to get across to viewers of this piece is that like me it shows many vast interests that are all separate but are unified because they're all things I enjoy. As far as changes go I have definitely branched out in the color department instead of just using black and white which has made my collage stand out more.
