Yr 11 Art

 My why

I chose to do mental health because I have recently gone through a lot of hardcore things and I wanted to be able to express that through art and show people what I was feeling or on the other hand give a clear representation of what it’s like to have different mental health issues such as schizophrenia and autism.

My artist model at the start of the year was Christopher McKenny he does a lot of dark artwork which I thought could potentially relate to my subject.

I was recently pulled out of my board which as unfortunate as that is,is a good opportunity for me to start fresh and develop some more ideas for a different subject and just take more time to think about my art.Miss Clemence gave me the idea to do my art on a manacin that was decorated with paint that sat on one of the shelves.I took on this idea and tried to draw,paint,and sketch it in a very abstract way(that was what I was going for anyway)

I decided to enter myself back into doing the board.(I have no idea why I though it was in my power but anyway)so in the end I completed a board which obviously wasn’t entered.

My new artist model was Frida Kahlo 

I had recently watched a documentary about her work and was very familiar with what she was about.

I started with some sketches they were the best pieces of art I feel I had ever done and unfortunately I lost them  in the move to the new building.I sketched the manicin in different angles and printed pictures to collage onto pieces of paper and eventually pulled some pretty cool artworks together such as a spray painted background with the manican picture cut out and put upright and upside with 

On the board I started with sketches and charcoal drawings I also had some dry brushing going on which I should have left until my second board or just positioned is differently.

On the second half of my board I painted used the same colour background for all of them which was a nice red with black, but did a couple of things differently like spray paint.And did a lot of collages.

The manican has been really helpful as she has helped me improve my shading and also get some context on angles and how light works,and with a bit of help from Mr Collins I was away drawing.

25th Friday May

So today,well lately i have been blanking out ,but managed to get my chords sorted and arranged into the way I want them.The genre im working on is sort of pop rock,which is exciting.This week im hoping to work on the lyrics.


1st Friday June

I finally have my 1st  verse down and im just tweaking it to make it sound better using the thesaurus etc,but starting to work on my chorus hopefully I will have that down by the end of next week.I feel like its sounding really good at the moment,needs some work but its only early stages.

8th Friday June

Im finding is really difficult to get the chorus and verse down and keep it short because that's one of my biggest issue is making my music to long.But I have finished the chorus finally still tweaking it but got everything down so im happy.

15th Friday June
Im not really getting anywhere,I'm blank I cant think a new verse,but ill keep going,I know i can do it i just need time to think.i don't think im liking the tune so ill have to tweak that also.

22nd Friday June
i have scrapped it and stated from the beginning as it isn't going anywhere at all i just can make it work so this is worst case scenario but i can do it.

Music

This week I want to learn all the lyrics of by heart as I am still relying on the words,I am working on my half of the song as the wicked witch.

For Good-to me is about family and how like no matter what they will always be there for you.

Art 3 Artis models

This artwork is although very scary it is very amzing I love the way this artist uses black ink and his art is similar to the art that I do already.It is called Horror pet semetary.I would really like to do something like this to show the see no evil theme.


This next picture really intriegued me becuase it is very mysterious and dark which ties in with my theme,I would also like to do some photography and this idea is really good I had an idea like this but I wanted to add some skull makeup so as it ties in with the first idea
.






This picture is really awesome i love the details and how innocent but dark it is.

My idea concept (art)

This is the type of art I would like to go for as my first 3 sketches and then from there on do some sketches from the depression aspect of it.

For my Idea I have chosen to do is;See no Evil,Hear no evil,Speak no evil,Which I am going to intertwine with Depression or anxiety.
My main focus will be to find a way to tie the two ideas together.
the two medians I will focus on is-pencil sketch and Black ink.

Group Song

Thursday 1st March 2018

My group which consists of Alyssa wright and myself,is performing a song called For Good,From a Broadway play called Wicked.
My role in the group is singing and playing guitar.
The part I am singing is the part of the wicked witch.Playing the guitar will be the most difficult as some of the chords I don't know yet.
