I really liked working with Mrs. H on this piece, it was interesting to get her opinion on all the different shapes that were possible. I ended up doing a hexagon and even an octagon! I truly enjoyed learning about the different porportions that are possible of the same shape. This piece creates a 3d effect; the smaller shapes seem the further away like they are the same size because they are porportional to the larger ones. This piece blew my mind, I learned a lot!
In this piece I attempted to use the effect of dark and light lines. I was trying to make my lines perfectly parallel and it turned out very well. I truly enjoyed this assignment and I love the illusions of 3d that the parallel lines create. It's fascinating to observe the stunning effect of this piece when looked at in a 3d sort of way. In this piece I chose to advance my skills of using dark and light lines. I also used negative space to encourage my lines to pop from the page, seeming closer to the observer because of the white background space. The light lines in the swirling rectangles on either side of the centerpiece make the centerpiece more prominent and seem closer to give it more movement.
