light drawings

This project was really fun and it took us alot of tries to get it right, but it was cool to learn about shutter speed and how the camera takes in the visible light.  The different glow sticks and  phones and lazer pointers made different levels of light and shapes.  Also the amount of time that we left them in the frame effected the outcome.

canvas painting - aurora borealis

If I were in the place that I painted, near the north pole, the air would be cold and crisp. It wouldn't smell like  much because the cold air would freeze your nose. I would feel the harsh, cold wind whipping against my face. Hearing the wind whistle and some birds far off in the distance. I conveyed this strong wind by using wispy brushstrokes and pastel like colors to show the wind blowing over the landscape.
