Artwork and Article by: Emmi Leard
This art piece was finished November 15, 2022. This piece is made with just graphite pencil. There are different aspects in the piece including: the wood on the door, the cinder blocks of the barn, the metal of the frames and lastly the fabric of the halter and rope.
I started this piece by sketching a graph. The graph is just symmetrical lines in horizontal and vertical patterns. I printed out the photograph I worked from and used math to adjust the graph to the correct sizing. After completing the door, I drew the metal of the door then worked my way up the paper. I continued back down and finished my drawing with the cinder blocks. Usually when I draw I try to get the center or most complicated part out of the way first.
I always come across a tough spot along the way. In this piece, my thought spot that I had to keep coming back to was the fan. The ceiling fan or the oval looking thing was hard because of the way it’s set. I had to use artistic liberty to make it work with the piece.
