"Just a Photo?" Medium: Charcoal + Graphite Pencils
I drew my brother's upper body and face in proportion using charcoal and graphite pencils. The proportion really did help develop my people drawing skills.
Anytime, Anyplace Medium: Graphite Pencil This artwork was made with the intent to improve my facial proportion skills. I drew my past, present , and future self using my mirror-image as reference. The biggest challenge for me would be the actual proportions because i don’t look like myself exactly and resemble. Otherwise, I had fun shading each version of myself and doing the different hair textures.
High Contrast Drawing Medium: Sharpie As a class, we were challenged to do a self portrait in Sharpie to focus on his contrast. The picture referenced had very little light, so the actual work’s lighting is intentional. We did use grid to transfer our proportions, but I’m not satisfied with how it turned out. An improvement would be the proportions and I would of done the background with ink instead of Sharpie to create a solid gradient.
GSU Drawing I Digital Works (Fall Semester) Ari Bradley Artist Statement: My name is Ari Bradley and I've had the pleasure of finding love, other forms art are nice, but drawing is my soul mate. This collection of work displays not only my skill set, but a crucial characteristic of mine as an artist with a strong work ethic. Before the semester started, my sole intention for taking this class was to build my basic skills and experience my first art class at the collegiate level in hopes of a revitalization after not taking art classes for a year. During the Fall 2022 Semester, I produced these in my journey to polish my basic skills in technical production of each composition while these assignments gave me to opportunity to experiment with mediums like charcoal and white charcoal. This class challenged me in numerous situations (more specifically, my self-portrait) to take liberties as an artist and apply the relevant teachings of Professor Nuni Lee. I’ve done art all of my life
