Artist Statement
There were several things my group and I wanted to convey in this project. Firstly, we wanted everyone to be able to relate to our project. Since we were all at school the best thing we thought of was coming back home in the evening after a very long day. We wanted our project to be able to communicate with it's audience, hence why we added a very tired looking little boy. Secondly, we wanted to show the ambiance that only a sun set can supply.
A key player in this project was the line technique we used. The type of line we approached this project with was contour. The line contour is often referred to as an outline or a silhouette. Since we were using masking tape, it was rather hard for us to make our creation stand out a bit more. The principle we used was Location. This came in handy when we tried to make the sun. We wanted to put things into perspective even though it was a flat drawing. We tried to make the sun look like it was behind the two houses and the fence. When it came to making the houses another principle that came in handy was measuring. We wanted the houses and the lines to match up perfectly with each other. I feel trying to do this would make everything more realistic because in real life, houses match up with each other in terms of height and measuring. The last principle we used was direction. In the original sketch, we wanted to make the view of the scene look as if we were standing far away from it.
