Story Boards What’s a story board? A story board is a series of illustrations, drawings, or frames that are used to visualize the flow of a series of drawings that show how a story will unfold and it expresses the changes of scenes. We commonly see story boards being used for films, story illustrations, and comic strips. Story boards can help organize thoughts and the changes between images to flow a certain way and in a sequence.

It’s a helpful tool to use to sketch out any and all ideas during the creative process while staying organized to be able to tell your story,

What’S A STORY BOARD? BASICS

Art History: pop-art The Pop Art movement began in the late 1950's through the 1960's and was inspired by popular culture, commercial, consumerism, and by what was happening at that time. Pop Art had no particular style and was inspired by Dadaism. It was a result after the post war era. This art is diverse and used common objects as part of the artwork such as hamburgers, soup cans, comic strips, and road signs (etc.).

This form of art was suited for mass-media and a consumerism oriented society. Some main characteristics of pop art can be described as popular, easily forgotten, low cost, mass produced, witty, and big business. You can identify this kind of art by it’s use of consumer symbols, brands, household objects, and iconic celebrities. This art style was also characterized by bold colors, usually primary colors, very bright, and similar to the color scheme on comic strips.

Pop Art was also known as ‘Propaganda Art,’ because artists mimicked advertisements, billboards, and marketing propaganda that was in the world at this time. Pop art became respected by the general public and was a form of art that was accessible to the masses.

Another influence during this era, post-war, was the invention of the television and the American Dream. The dream of success, beauty, and money was a driving a force of a celebrity worship culture. The television was beginning to appear in homes across the country which impacted this entire culture and the inspiration of pop art.

Some famous pop artists include: Andy Warhol.

David Hockney, Richard Hamilton, and Roy Lichtenstein.

CARINA PHOTOGRAPHY Carina is a freelance photographer who got her start taking photos on a point-and-shoot Kodak camera that had a happy accident ending with a broken screen. She learned to use her own eye with the camera as an extension of herself before purchasing her very own DSLR in high school. With this DSLR she sharpened her skills and became a hobbyist in the field of nature and wildlife photography.

Not soon after she had the opportunity to photograph a family friend’s wedding and quickly learned how much she enjoyed taking photos of the details, smiles, and joy of the wedding scenes.

Carina briefly became a wedding photographer before moving to Maryland where she is following a different dream of hers. Although she’s no longer focused on getting a photography business up and running, she still enjoys the opportunity to photograph weddings when the opportunity presents itself. For now, Carina is happy when she’s able to take photos of nature, wildlife, and landscapes during her vacations and free time. To see more of Carina’s adventures, check out CapturedbyCarina.co

DESIGN Growing up in rural Vermont without television or internet the outdoors was largely my playground. I spent a lot of my time by the Winooski River or roaming through the forest.

Many hours spent marveling at the moss, rocks and trees. As an artist I wanted to record those small yet wonderful details in my work. I do my best to capture what most overlook.

Like how the lines in bark flow or the way shadows fall over a landscape. The way water cascades through the forest and so on. To me, there’s nothing more therapeutic and whimsical than nature itself. It is and has always been my greatest inspiration. Although I primarily use black ink on white paper, I think a little can say a lot in this way.

Sculpture Talk Girl With Ravens & Bratislava Witch

Known as the girl with ravens or the bratislava witch statue Near the Bratislava Castle as you’re leaving through Nicholas Gate, there sits a bronze statue of a woman with crazy hair and surrounded by ravens. This statue was created in the 1980s by a sculptor Tibor Bartfay. He dedicated this statue to the memory of the women who burned or drowned in the Danube river who got accused of being witches in Bratislava, Slovakia. The burnings took place throughout the 1600s where women were accused of witchcraft and flying on broomsticks. As this statue sits, no one can resist to stop and take a selfie with the Bratislava Witch and her ravens.

Do it yourself pumpkin painting

Step 1. Choose your materials and begin to draw an outline of the pumpkin

Step 2. Draw the stem and leaf details

Step 3. Choose your colors and gather your paints. Start by adding paint to the canvas to fill in the background. I choose 2 shades of brown.

Step 4. Blend the brown and white paints around the pumpkin, filling in the bottom half of the background. I made this half lighter in color.

Step 5. blend the brown, white, and black paints together around the top half of the painting making it a darker hue.

Step 6. paint the pumpkin a light orange color You can begin to fill in the eyes and nose with black paint,

Step 7. Color in stem with a tan color and leaf with a light green. Take a darker orange and. go over the lines in the pumpkin to give it some dimension and form,

Step 8. Addthe final touches by going over the eyes, nose, and mouth with black. Add some darker green lines on the leaf and stem. Place a lighter line around the eyes and mouth to get a 3D effect and lastly, trace over any lines or add highlights & shadows.
