Hand Drawing


1. What was it like using your hand as subject matter for a drawing?
It was very interesting to use my hand as the subject matter for this drawing. I was not sure if my drawing would end up looking like my hands but it was fun to add the small details of my fingers to the drawings.
2. What media did you select - pencil or charcoal? Why?
I chose to use a pencil just because it would be less messier than using charcoal. 
3. How did it feel to create a drawing with your non-dominant hand?
It was weird to use my dominant hand, it began to bother me just because it took longer than it did when using my dominant hand, but it was interesting to see the outcome and how it did not came out as bad as I predicted it to come out. 
4. Compare and contrast your final drawings. Do you think they are successful studies?
I think my final drawings are successful. I had predicted them to come out not looking like my hands but I feel like they look very much just like hands to me. 
5. Would you consider using your non-dominant hand to create artwork in the future?
 I would not consider using my non-dominant hand to create artwork in the future just because I feel like it is too time consuming, and it does not allow for representation of good detail in the artwork.

Here is the finalized version of my mask:

Modules 7's video reviews

In the prairie school clip, one of the key concepts that I learned was about architecture becoming a style. This was something that became natural to society, and this is what made it a style. In the second video architecture as art it was described that architecture was something that becomes a language that flourishes more and more as time goes on. This means that it becomes something that is used in the everyday life. The videos relate to the readings in the text because in the text the history of architecture and how the structures of buildings, and designing came about. In my opinions I think these films were very informative and they were able to explain to viewers more in-depth about architecture, and the background behind it. I loved it because construction interests me so I love learning more about those things. I chose the films that I watched by random selection. I didn’t know what exactly they would be about but I am glad I picked the ones that I did because t...
