237.130 Communication for Makers Assignment - Process & Final Product

The Behind the Scenes was getting a bit long so I decided for another part. Decided to upload my art progess onto Facebook stories. First I used a mechanical 2H pencil and then darkened it with 2B, then blended it using a B pencil. The coloring was fineliner pens and prismacolor pencils.

Managed to stick everything together using PVA glue, then used gel pens to write little notes down.

Bought differenct coloured cardboard paper with the coloured theme of the Lake and beach at The Warehouse Stationery and some washi tape to make it look more aesthetically pleasing. I also went to the beach and put bags of sand to scatter and glue it around the tape to make it look more realistic and visual to the reader. Knew those paper bags I put in my BP pies would be of some use. I was surprised the rocks and pumice actually stuck on with PVA glue but I did leave it overnight.

Coloured it with prismacolour, used a gluestick and some PVA glue and tape for the leaves to stay down. I probably looked crazy asking my grandma and Uncle if I could go to their backyard and get some dirt and plant leaves for my school assignment. I probably looked even weirder picking leaves and scooping sand up at the lake.

I taped up and PVA glued some leaves and then scattered the sand on top of the PVA glue.

Tried to draw the sleepout and scattered a different type of sand on my paper.

Tried to draw the Waipahihi playground and picked up some bark that I put in my car. Went there at around 6-7pm so nobody would think I was a weirdo.

Use a gluestick and washi tape to hold down the cardboard paper and also to decorate it. Used a white gel pen but I was disappointed at how inconsistent it was.

Tried to draw grandma's gorge and add some colour to the drawings by using pigment pens and prismacolour pencils to draw it. Also used the washi tape around it as reference.
