While making my accordion book, I learned that it requires a lot of time and dedication. I also learned that it is fairly easy to incorporate elements and principals in an accordion book. I enjoyed putting my own style of art with other forms of art. It was challenging trying to make the bok look nice while trying to make sure it represents the building blocks of art. If I ever make another accordion book, I would concentrate more on it and dedicate more time to it. Overall, it was a very enjoyable experience.

I found this handmade book interesting because it has the form of a watermelon at a picnic. It takes the form of fruit, which may portray the feelings of the creator of the book about watermelons. I also found it interesting because it uses the shape of a fork as a lock on the book.This is well-crafted because it has seeds on the cover of it with a green background, which gives the image of it being a watermelon. It also has great detail such as the flaws that may appear on a watermelon. The artist took time out to create the background details, as well as the entire cover itself.

Abstract Art

I see a water flow or air flow mixed with the earth. I think it is supposed to represent the way water and earth go hand and hand with each other and how they interact with each other. It could also mean the atmosphere is covering the Earth. This painting could represent many things depending on the view of the observer. The artist tried to combine elements of color and texture.

The artist, Cope 2, has created this graffiti work of art. He attempts to using the element of art color. He uses a variety of different shades of the same color, which brings the artwork full circle. He also uses the element of art style. He provides his own flair to graffiti by adding his name, which is basically the artwork itself. Cope 2 uses emphasis in the way that he combines certain colors to make a completely different artwork. Also, he uses the principle variety. He combined different shapes and colors to make it look a certain way and conform to his name, Cope 2.
