Standing in the shoes of...

Rania Khoury - Leonardo da Vinci

I tried to play around with the atmospheric perspective and came up with the fuzziness/lighter lines. This gives the illusion you are looking at something that is further away. I am not a good artist so it was hard to really get the distance and the sizes of the boxes perfect. I made the bigger/closer box darker to help emphasize the depth of the photo. I used shadows to try and emphasize on the direction of lighting. Da Vinci is known for lighting and his depth perception.



Timothy Laudan- Michelangelo


I am sending my work of art that took a lot of skill to create.Seriously, I'm sending a picture of wood sculpture that I bought inJamaica, and "My Masterpiece" A car I attempted to carve out of a bar ofsoap. It's very hard to sculpt anything, because if you make a mistake,you have to start over. I've included the Bob Marley sculpture from Jamaica because it was carved by a 10 year old Jamaican boy with aknife, and stained with shoe polish. That little kid was a very good artist! Me...not so much!

My artist was Michelangelo, I chose to express my experience in Nursing
School, so I chose to represent "Perserverance", even though there are
many obstacles, one has to stand strong. I represented "Perserverance"
with a sculptured bar of soap; I used a sharp kitchen knife. I took away
the top layer and angled the bottom layer, leaving a strong foundation
which represents "perserverance" and I chisled the sides away which
represents "obstacles".
