Yiyang Hu Prof.Robson AP Art 2/27/2019 1. What is the question guiding your art making? How can I draw chiaroscuro with  Oil painting?    2. How does your artwork reflect your exploration of this question visually? I took a picture of my dog in the corner where the sunlight came in, so that  get a strong contrast between the light and the dark.   I drew the background in dark brown. Then  divided the light and the darkness of my puppy  into three levels. The first is the brightest, the second is the medium and the third is the darkest.  I use brown and black  to draw the darkest level, use brownish red to draw the medium level and use yellow and white to draw the lightest level. 3. How did practice, experimentation, and/or revision play a role in the making of this piece? Drawing the details of dog hair is a difficulty Painting process  Finished piece  In

Yiyang Hu Prof.Robson AP Art 2/18/2019 1. What is the question guiding your art making? How can I draw chiaroscuro with white charcoal?    2. How does your artwork reflect your exploration of this question visually? I took this photo using strong lighting to add old drama. I also put chess pieces turned over to lead the eye to the plant. I used the rule of thirds and kept the plant the brightest in one spot. First, l fill the whole paper with black then l slowly built up to white highlights with white charcoal pencil. I contrasted this extreme darkness and lights for the style of older classic and mystery. 3. How did practice, experimentation, and/or revision play a role in the making of this piece? The hardest part of this piece is to draw the tiny leaves and flowers. I tried it over and over again to draw out its details.    My sketchbook
