Types of Art
By: Audrey

              Art has symbols, take the tree for example: the tree means life or nature. Art is creative, and you must be able to have a detailed eye while looking at things, you will imagine a lot too. There are many different types of art. The picture above is called a Landscape drawing either an imaginative place or a real setting.  You should be describing the place by using colors,and shading.

 

I have one favorite, the Abstract drawing. You do it when you draw almost scribbles or nothing that is real at all. An object with strange features, Abstract. Here is a very good example of an abstract drawing. You see, art can be anything, from a scribble to sculptures. And if you stare at Abstract picture you will notice hidden pictures or things.


Another type type of drawing is Sketching  it is the most popular, you might do it. Here is an example. Sketching is when you slowly made lines and make the out lining of a picture, you will need an eraser at the end to make the corrections. You know the cartoons like, Pokemon, Cinderella,and Snow white . Well, those are all Sketches, colored in. A lot of pictures beings shown really fast making it look like a show.



The last type of drawing is a Portrait. It should be familiar to you it is a picture of something from the waist level up. For our school pictures, those are portraits. Portraits can not be only a person actually, it can be a flower, cat,  anything living.

Have confidence in your art, don’t compare your drawing to another. Just do your best, and your drawing it would be wonderful! Do you enjoy drawing why or why not? If you do, what type of drawing?

Great post Audrey! I enjoy drawing because it makes me forget about everything else and focus. My favorite type of drawing is Abstract too. It's my favorite because you can be very creative.

I actually LOVE drawing. I like it because you can be creative. I don't really have a favorite type of drawing. All the different types are equally special in there own different way, but I do think I use sketching a bit more then the others so I am more comfortable with that. I think portraits are really cool. Though, it is hard to get it accurate. I have heard of the abstract drawing. I know it may look very easy because it's just scribbles, but if you look closely, it is really hard.


Great post, Audrey!

I like sketching the best. The favorite sketching I like is sketching horses, cats, dogs, rodeos, and sceneries.

Great Post Audrey!!!
Yes, I do like to draw sometimes, even though I mostly prefer being outside. When I do draw though, I draw abstract, but sometimes I sketch. When I sketch, I usually draw pictures of lightning, animals, or imaginative creatures. Usually I like abstract because you can express yourself easily by drawing/coloring in "warm" colors" when you're mad, using "calm colors" when you're calm and relaxed, and much more. I also like abstract because you can draw any way you want without worrying about it looking realistic and pretty and all that. Again, Great Post!!

I like to draw only one type of drawing which is the abstract drawing because it can be squiggles,lines, and splatters which makes abstract drawings very interesting.

I enjoy drawing because I like to see the results. I don't like coloring because it takes much more longer than drawing you have to switch colors again and again.

I enjoy sketching the most. When you do other types of art, you might make something that looks really good, but when you add color or when you shade you could mess up the whole thing. When sketching, after you are done with the sketching part there is no chance of you messing it up and it takes half as much time.

Yes, I enjoy drawing because you can do it to pass the time away. I enjoy a type of drawing you didn't include, watercolor. I also enjoy sketch.

I don't really like drawing because I don't really draw neat, or I draw too small or to big.It's also really hard for me to draw light, so I can't erase my pencil marks.

You can not believe how much I love art,Audrey!!My favorite kind of art is Sketch,because it kind of helps you if you need to know how good your drawing is.

I enjoy drawing a lot because it is fun, you can be creative and imaginative, and it gives you some focus. I like all kinds of drawings because they are all special in their own way.

Fantastic post, Audrey!

I enjoy drawing a lot. It makes me happy when I get to draw. I even take drawing classes. Drawing also brings me happiness because many people (not to brag) like my drawings. I usually spend more time drawing than coloring. To me, coloring is a more boring than getting to draw the actual thing. I like drawing so much that I can not chose which type of drawing I like to do. But when I am bored, sometimes I like to draw realistic things with shading.

I like drawing, but I don't love drawing. My favorite type of drawing is abstract drawing too. In abstract drawing you can show off your creativity and do all scribbles, random shapes, and even hide some kind of drawing in your abstract.
