Online Exhibition Strike Drawings



Studio Thinking 
Online Exhibit Strike Drawings



What materials did you use?

I used chalk pastels and 6" x 6" paper. Red, white and black. They were very messy.


How did you use these materials?

When creating the drawings, I thought about which colors would best represent (the idea). I layered the pastels to make bold words.


How did it feel?

At first I had to really try and synthesize many experiences of that morning and how I felt into only one image for each suggested drawing. It felt good to process those feelings and see others who felt similarly. 



Which habits did you use?
