Graphic Novel Review: The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish

I read and reviewed the book, The Day I Swapped My Dad for Two Goldfish. The style of art used in the book was mixed media, along with some digital graphics. I created my review in much the same style. Below is the image I created, along with a page from the book.

Springville Art Museum: High School Art Exhibit

When we visited the Springville Art Museum on Wednesday, Feb. 23rd, I was very impressed with the quality of work exhibited. These high school students created some high-quality work.
The first piece was a large one, created with colored pencil. The design and craftsmanship were well done.

The next one of a girl with writing on the background was a personal look into the young person. The final one here is mixed media, and since we are doing that in class now, I thought it was a fun example of that style of work. Overall, I was impressed with not only the technique of all three of these, but the self-expression.

The Big Project: in two stages.

This is a prototype studio art project that goes along with Curriculum Sketch #1. It is an example of drawing over the top of a mixed media background. The background contains images and newspaper clippings from the 1930's, primarily. I painted fashion sketches from the 1930's over the top.
