Painting Ideas...

Warren · **Posted:** January 1st, 2007, 11:33 am

For part of my art summative I have to take one of my worst projects in my opinion and re-make the project. I picked the crappy painting I did. Now I need an idea of what to paint. It has to have a colour scheme (primary, cool, warm, secondary, monochromatic, analagous, etc.) but you can have more than one scheme, or have a few colours not in the colour scheme. It has to have a foreground, middle ground, and background. It also has to feature two elements of design, and 2 principles of design. When it comes to ideas for my own stuff, I can never think of any.

(Elements of design:
Line
Shape
Form
Space
Colour
Value
Texture

Principles:
Rhythm
Movement
Balance [symmetrical, asymmetrical, radial]
Proportion
Variety
Emphasis
Harmony
Unity)

So yeah... any suggestions on what to do?

I did something like this once.
I would do a forest if I were you, when it is in the autom. it will look nice and i think it has all those elements in it.

Goodluck!

Check the sandbox for my idea.

Wow, thanks very much for the idea.

I've started it- Its meesekiller's idea but in autumn like Ranging God suggested. The only part I'm not going to do is the musical notes, I don't know what my teacher will think of them. And I don't have to title it so I don't need the tite.

i did something like this in art last year. What i did was i made a mountain range as the backround. a meadow as the foreground. and various critters in the meadow. my teacher wanted to put it on the school website. i said no cause it would have my anme on it and could be humiliating o.O

At the begining of the year theres this sheet and one of the things is "Allow to have your good work on the school website?" I said no. Anyways I'm in the general art not in the visual art program, and my school is one of the best arts school in the country so I probably wouldn't make anything good enough.

I was finshed when you posted it... Well finished except for the finer details.
