David's Art Process
I'm not entirely sure why I chose to draw a tiger, but I draw a lot of tigers. It doesn't have some kind of deeper meaning to me, but I've done a whole bunch of them these past few months. This is probably my most successful one thus far. I used charcoal, and I tried to do something different than what I normally do. I did virtually no outlining of the drawing, and made marks specifically where there were darker values, and tried to create light/dark values by density of the mark-making. I consider it a successful attempt, and I will continue on with this method in the future.
I am currently in the process of creating a drawing of a lion, which is in the same scene, except during the day, and is facing the tiger. I have doubts as to whether of not it is going look good, however, and I may or may not use them as one piece. I will most likely use them as separate pieces, and attempt to create a lion/tiger scene later, when I get the chance.

James Pack's art process
I wanted to connect this piece with the larger theme of my recent work,
which is the idea of wabi-sabi ( a Japanese worldview and aesthetic that
is centered around the ideas of impermanence and imperfection). Through
wiping out certain parts of this figure,
I wanted to highlight the idea of transience. I am really interested in
the interaction between the human figure and the natural world and hope
to keep exploring it.

Sarah's art process
Throughout the beginning of this year I have been playing with shapes.
From swirls to hard edges, I constantly like to play with movement and
flow. The two pieces of artwork shown on the blog represent a series of
abstract movements and shapes that both
portray movement and different shapes. Besides playing with different
figures, playing with different materials as well has contributed to the
tone and mood that I am trying to get across to the viewer. By using
china markers, ink, waters colors, pens and
pencils, I am using a variety of materials that will hopefully
contribute to piece that is two dimensional in tone and mood. Later on,
I hope to utilize textures and different types of surfaces in order to
emphasize the message of the piece as well as enhance
the appeal to essentially make my pieces contain more depth.
