HI, my name is Sydney Smith, and I am from a small town in Central New York called Moravia. While at home I love camping, swimming, boating, gardening, and hanging out with friends and family. I really enjoy crafting to relax in my everyday life. I haven’t done much drawing or painting except for in an art class last year. I really enjoy looking at art and I appreciate it whenever I see it. I have no experience with digital art, but am ready to learn! I never did much traditional art in highschool, but I loved singing, playing the clarinet and participating in my school’s musical every year. My grandma taught me how to sew, knit, crochet, embrioder, cross-stitch, and and do pretty much everything crafty. Over the course of my life I have knit dish clothes, socks, a hat, a tank top, blankets, little bumblebees, a sock monkey, and festive hand towels! I have also done a Bob Ross painting as you can see in my portfolio. I am so excited for this hands-on art class after a few art history classes here at WPI!
These are very familiar to me. The still lifes of everyday objects like the apples and rubix cube ground it very much in reality. The mountain landscape makes me nostalgic for the mountains back in Oregon.
Hi Sydney, I will give you the cute badge and striking badge. The bee is super cute and I love how minimalist and clean the rubix cube is.
Detailed: I also took essentials of Art and I am very impressed by the detail you were able to get in the apple and the Rubix cube.
Cute: I love the bee and tea cloths that you made, they’re really cute!
Detailed: Your work with the still-life drawings are extremely well done, especially the ones done with colour. Colour is really hard to get right with realism drawings and you did an amazing job!
Hi Sydney! I am giving you the familiar tag- did you take essentials of art in the past. I have similar pictures of apples!
Hi Sydney, I think your bee is so cute! Your landscape painting is gorgeous as well!
Hey Sydney, I’m giving you the cute and familiar badges. Your crotched bee and hand towels are adorable, I love them! I’m giving you the familiar tag because, like several others, I recognize the composition of your apple drawings from Professor Keller’s Essentials of Art class.
Hey Sydney! I love love love the crocheted pieces you’ve made. I love to crochet, so I’m going to give you the familiar badge. I enjoyed looking at all your artwork :)) it’s super cute!
Hi Sydney! I want to give you the detailed badge. Your attention to detail in the Bob Ross painting and the shading of the apples make them look so realistic! Great job!!
Impressive! The trees and shrubbery in the Bob Ross painting are mad good.
Hi! i am giving you the impressive badge because of how life like your mountains are and the depth the water gives the piexe
Hi Sydney! I am going to give you the cute badge because I LOVE the bee that you knitted. It is so cute and I want to learn to make one!
Hi! I think the cute badge for both the bee and the dish cloths.
Hey Sydney!! Your art is lovely. I’ll give you the cute and quirky badge! I can’t wait to see what you create in class!
Sydney! I love the bee crochet and you are well-deserving of the cute badge for that. I have a bee tattoo and It’s safe to say my spirit animal is a bee so I could not leave without mentioning the cute bee. My mother loves hand towels to hang on the oven handle and I’m now thinking of home. For that ill give you the familiar badge as well!
Hi! I am also leaving you the cute badge because of the bee! The soft colors you use also feel delicate and sweet, and I can’t forget to mention the adorable little christmas fellas!
