Cubist Tornado House

Process: I began my project by researching the devastation that occurred to the houses in Dallas after the major tornado that occurred. After my research, chose a house that was severely impacted by the storms, and at the same time portrayed the higher class in that area that was effected. In my piece, I wanted to show how an area that is of higher status was so impacted by such a terrible storm. I printed out the reference image modern house that I chose and cut out my piece of board. I taped trace paper onto my printed out reference image and traced over the prominent lines that are seen within the house to create a modern cubist look of the house. After this, I took another piece of trace paper, and traced the prominent lines of the trees within the reference image that I chose. I then transferred both pieces of trace paper onto my piece of board so that I got the cubist shape of the lined house that I had created. I then began to paint the shapes that the lines created on the house and the trees, while following the colors of the reference image. After this I used a black pen and a ruler to draw over the lines that I had originally transferred onto my piece of board to portray the modern cubist idea.

Reference Images:

Sensory: Anna catherine suggested that I go over the areas that are painted with acrylic paint with another layer of acrylic paint in order to create a clean and neat complete idea.
Formative/Technical: Anna Clare suggested that I cut off the top piece of paper on my work that was covered with spots of pen and acrylic paint to allow the focus to be on the intricate lines.
Expressive: Mrs. Johnson suggested that I add more lines onto the house to make it look more in construction after the hardships.

Elements And Principals Of Design:

Line: I used lines within my piece when I used the lines in order to form the abstract shapes which then represented the architectural idea of the house.
Color: I used color within my pieces when I painted some of the important boxes to create the visual idea of the difficult times.
