Kat Valery: Drawings 2 & 3

For my second drawing I decided to continue with the theme of space and drew the astronaut’s helmet. I had other plans for the design but it got a tad complicated. This is shown below from the original sketch and painted sketch.

I started to get some more “Daft Punk” vibes from the drawing as I started to get closer to the end. I kind of want to work with a similar style later on as I work with more shading techniques.

For my third drawing, I wanted to experiment with using sine and cosine as major factors to the creation of my piece and had created a radial pattern outwards. I added more rings of engraving as well that utilized trigonometric functions to choose the positions. I had attempted to write code that would randomly draw a cube like cut out for the piece, but the code was getting very messy too quickly, and p5.js didn’t seem to be compatible with my code, so I was unable to use it. However, I ended off by creating a curved edge for the piece alongside the rest of the geometric edges. Overall the drawing game me an “old style diner” feel to it.
