Art Projects. I like art projects, especially when I have the right supplies, adequate time to work on them, and if they make sense with when they are assigned within the semester.
This color wheel assignment was a disaster. We had to create a color wheel, but include 7 variations of each color from light to dark. Before this assignment we had to create a color chart using all the colors of the color wheel and 7 variations from light to dark. Both were assigned at the same time, and we were given 2 weeks to complete both. At first this seems like a reasonable amount of time, but this is a big assignment, especially when assigned during the week before finals where every teacher assigns an essay. So most of my time went to my essays (especially since I need more points in my other classes than this one) and this was on the back burner.
I used so much paint on the chart, and then had to use the same amount of paint on this, my paints were running out- making most of the colors very strange (like the yellow and green), my brushes disappeared out of thin air, leaving me a chunky brush to do this color wheel (they’re supposed to be ice creams) - it’s just a disaster.
All of these are excuses for how crappy this looks, I realize that, but I wish art professors wouldn’t assign such heavy assignments the week before finals- and if they do I wish they would realize that we have other classes besides theirs. If I have to chose between painting a picture for a class I have a high percentage in or doing a really good job on a history essay in a class I’m slipping in.. I’m giving more effort to the essay. Ugh.. student problems..
