1. What new skills did you learn or what did you improve on during this unit? Because this unit was all about learning to "steal" and build off other artists' work, my ability to sketch something from another picture has improved a lot. Before, I wasn't very good at drawing something if I wasn't tracing it. Now, I'm a lot better at following the proportions and sketching pictures accurately. 2. How has your thinking about what original art is changed? During this unit, my idea of original art has been changed a lot. I've learned how to build off of others works without fully copying. It helped me become more creative, but also accept the fact that nothing I do will be completely original. Now I can feel justified using snippets of other artists' ideas! 3. What challenges or successes did you have during this unit? Would you change anything you did if you could go back and redo it? While in this unit, I struggled with finding an idea that wasn't already taken. Luckily, I learned that I don't have to be completely original, I just need to make my own artistic "remixes". I wouldn't change anything if I could go back because I learned a lot and actually had fun drawing/coloring all my pieces.
