Drawing 200

DRWG 200 F001

 

FINAL PROJECT OUTLINE: Self-Directed Project in Response toŠ

 

 

Name: Gordie Scott

 

What was particularly challenging about this project?

 

Trying to draw in the style of  someone else, yet still trying to be myself. I also found it hard to try and put my whole process together, it was expensive and a bit stressful

 

 

What was the most interesting or rewarding aspect of this project?

 

The whole process of trying to be as exact to another artist as possible. I was trying to take the role as Jim Dine. It gave me a broader look at approaching my work as an experience.

 

What do you particularly want to have discussed about your work during this crit?

 

Maybe how I tryied using techniques and approaches to draw like Jim dine, yet tried to morph it to my own drawing.

 

 

Completed after the crit:

Whant was the most useful information you gained from this crit?

 

That you should never be unconsciously driven by your influences. You should be conscious of everything around you and how and why it affects you.

 

What questions or concerns about  your work remain after this crit?

 

I wander if Elizabethıs assessment of this work will be different than what it would have been if she was here in person viewing it.

 

 

 

Vjeko Sager: Assessment of the Final Project by Gordie Scott:

 

Terms: 4/5 I think Gordie made lots of efforts to meet criteria, maybe lacking the opportunity to introduce personal statements

 

Concept: 5/5 I think his process was excellent, as he tried to mimic the nuances he learned about Jim Dine, For example, he went with his girlfriend to Victoria Hotel and sketched initial sketches, same as Dine (working in hotel rooms)

 

Technique: 5/5 Gordie mimicked as close as possible the use of materials and techniques by Dine

 

Creativity: 3/5 I think this is the part where Gordie failed to respond to the concept, being ³over-influenced² by Dine

 

Presentation: 4/5 Work was presented verbally, without process sketching and/or other supporting materials

 

 Mark: From my perspective Gordie gained (solid) B+ for this project
