AOIT Art Final Exam Part 3

1.   Success: Which project was your most successful? Use two of the artistic behaviors to explain your answer. Include photo.

                     The most successful piece of art I have done this year was the sticky note project of Morgan Freeman.  In order to make sticky note art of Morgan Freeman, we found an online picture of him and put it into photoshop and then used gradient map.  This made him a mixture of colors from light and dark green, yellow, and dark and light blue.  Then we made it mosaic so that he was made of squares and you could make out who the picture was of from a distance.  The mosaic allowed us to stay organized when putting the different color sticky notes on the construction paper.  Once we finished sticking the sticky notes onto the big piece of construction paper, we hung it up in C building.  You could not realize who the picture was of unless standing farther away.  
                      The two artistic behaviors we used while creating this work of art, were "We Collaborate", and "I Reflect".  We collaborated during this project because we helped each other in our group out and asked each other questions.  We also made a process by telling eachother what color sticky note goes on what number of the grid, and we had to collaborate in order to hand up the construction paper.  Our group reflected by sitting back and planning before so we didn't get to greedy, and we analyzed it before just going straight at it without thinking about it.




2. Do Over: If given the opportunity, which project would you do over? Describe why and how you would redo this project. Reasons might include choosing a different theme, using a different medium or creating a different idea completely. Include Photo.

                       If I could go back and re do any project, it would be the anamorphosis.  I think that we could have made this project a lot better if we used a different object and stuck to our original plan in using a coke bottle instead of a coffee cup.  Also, if we had more time to do this, it would have came out a lot better and make it look like it was standing up from the ground better.  We needed to plan out our grid and outline the inside of the boxes better and more neat.  The time really cut us off because by the end we were rushing through the painting process, and if everyone would have put in more effort in the drawing and planning, it would have came out better and neater.
