Scale
For the scale project, my group and I decided to replicate a tube of toothpaste. The materials involved in this project included: wire, packing peanuts, bubble wrap 2 shower curtains, spray paint, gloss and poster board. We assembled the frame with the wire, placed the packing peanuts in it, covered it with bubble wrapped, then covered that with two shower curtains (they were somewhat transparent for we needed two), spray painted “Colgate” on the front, pasted the details/instructions on the back and assembled a cap out of poster board. The toothpaste was also rolled up to give it the appearance that it was used.

Color
For the color project, my running theme was the use of cartoon elephants There are 6 box representing 6 different color schemes. They are: analogous, monochromatic, secondary color composition, primary color composition, intermediate color composition and complementary. So to represent these color schemes (which involved 2-3 colors) I had the elephant’s outline was one color and the background was the 2nd and sometimes 3rd color. I used acrylic paint and Bristol paper to complete this project.

Texture
For the texture project, I decided to do the famous painting, “Girl with Pearl Earring”. The composition consisted of materials such as felt, magazine cuttings and fabric flowers. For her face, I used different shades of skin cut out from magazines. For part of her head scarf and her outfit, I used clippings that matched the color of the items. For the other part of her scarf, I used fabric flowers. And for the back ground, I used black felt.
