CHARCOAL MAGIC

CHARCOAL CONES
7TH GRADE ART WHEEL - 1ST QUARTER - 2016-2017

"Magic isn't from a hat or wand,
it's from you."

How clever and sweet is the saying  that Sophia Oporto incorporated into her piece above,
along with how dimensional the cone feels to the eye?
And check out her great foreground as well.

I like how Katherine Chen filled up her negative space with design elements,
rather than leaving it empty.
And I also like the texture she brought into her cone.

But it was the background that Jason Park came up with that was brilliant.

  1. Jason Park's cones combined with the background made me think of Standing Rock ... and though I'm sure it wasn't intended, I mention it to illustrate how art can trigger unexpected responses.
