We used chairs to get the tale portions of the wall. We had to go back over the things we brushed because it took too much off. The image was faded and didn't look nice from the key.

Interactive mural: day four
We began coloring the sunset and began blending other values into each other. Nicole Rollman helped us because I was late to class.
I had a problem with the vibrancy of the PeptoBismol pink, so we took brushes to the wall to get the nooks and crannies of the brick. It helped blend, but also pulled off the chalk dust.
Interactive murals: day three
We began to color the sunset. We should have done the water after the sunset because of the back-to-front method. With art, you're supposed to color the foreground first. We continued coloring the waves. And thought to outline the dock so we knew where to stop coloring the water.
New Project: Interactive mural
We were told to design an interactive mural, one that someone could pose with and complete an action.
Similar to the carnival cut out murals of the flexing man or the woman in a bikini.
We elected groups of three or four to complete our mural designs.
Mine was chosen. And we, Charlie, Alexyss and I, decided to keep the sunset and dock, but the person will be standing and we could lay out a towel on the "dock" for them to appear to be sunbathing.

Day six: vans shoe contest
My shoe design was picked out of both classes to transfer onto the shoe. I was given the shoes and fabric sharpies as well as normal sharpies. One struggle I faced was keeping my shoe clean. The tape measure I was using kept smearing the sharpie upwards when I scooted it up. I resolved that problem with chemical cleaner and a paper towel. It was tedious work having to wipe the tape measure after every line but it ultimately saved my shoe from sharpie mishaps.
Other than that, I transferred my design successfully. I brought the shoes home to finish them sooner
Side profile
The diamond design in the front panel was horribly messed up, geometrically. I opted to color the design in to take away from the mistake.
Final requirements for Vans Shoe Project
Time management I brought my shoes home
Craftsmanship I had just one smudge but no major flaws. I corrected ones I saw.
Contour line drawing drawn by still life my shoe was drawn, sketched and traced from both still life and pictures.
Theme is represented my theme was Art so I won for both classes. I believe I was uncontended.
Originality of design I used Pinterest for inspiration but made it mine by simple touches.
