For Kandinsky's Portrait, I am thinking of taking the circles in squares and taking this pattern to make Kandinsky's portrait. The colors will show the tonal differences in his face.

Color Scheme

I am planning on having a limited color palette in this process. It will help it keep a similar theme and make sure that everything is on track to my idea. I wanted bright colors because I am a bright personality and love the use of sherbet or bright colors.

Here are some ideas:



The outside of the heart will be a dark color or gray.






Schedule - Updated

UPDATED:

Time Table: I plan on working 40-45 hours a week on my capstone project so that I can complete all the details. 6 hours on weekdays and up to 8 hours on the weekend days.

Week 4 (This Week): Order 9 picture frames for the wall art, create the nine icons, create a project map, figure out the size of the flip book.

Week 5: Sketch out the processes for the flip book, start creating the 9 pictures for the wall about 2 pieces.

9/21. Week 6: Start on the flip book and do about 4-6 pieces of the wall art.

Week 7: Finish the 9 pieces of wall art, finish at least the first full sequence of the flip book. See about doing the 2nd-3rd sequences. Work on resume/artist statements. (Get flipbooks printed for presentations next week).

Week 8: Do 4th-7th sequences, as well as, start flushing out the written component.

Week 9: Finish the flip book sequences. Change any last minute details to refine the piece.

Week 10: Write the written component out and submit to the writing center. Start working out the details for the final presentation, write down all the ideas and start to find what to talk about.

Week 11: Send the project off for any printing needs. Start framing the 9 pieces that will be going onto the wall.

Week 12: Finish any details needed for the hanging of all artwork. Finish any written components and refine them. Find space in the gallery for my piece with the class.

Week 13: Pick up artwork from printing and frame/assemble all the printed materials. Print written components. Create another CD Portfolio for the past portfolio + new portfolio information.

Sketches


Upon working out the design flaw of the output of the art, I went to as vague as I could and start sketching until I could find a way to incorporate all ideas. My original idea was not worked completely out. As I worked on this particular picture, I thought about the heart as a machine. 

This has in the input dumping ideas into a brain structure with a person receiving the ideas to bring down to the machine. There is a person using the machine to create artwork and it is output from the heart. I also have one painting, graphic design, and music. Three of my most important aspects of my art journey.
