Bennett Kerbow's Amazing TCCD Blog

So, I have opened a shop for anyone who wants to buy my amazingly awesome and not at all terrible art! Link below. There's only one item available, mostly because I don't plan on using this shop very much in the future, but who knows? Maybe one day I'll want to go back and use it some more. The option is always there, right?

The second of two color boards demonstrating the Elements and Principles of Design. I liked this one a lot more than the first one! I felt I had a better grasp on the Elements and Principles on this board than my last one. Once again, I focused more on shape and color than anything else.
After I finished, I was reminded as to why I hate painting with yellow. It doesn't cover anything, gets overpowered by other colors, and if you accidentally touch your yellow brush with any other color, that color immediately paints over the yellow and takes over it. UGH, I hate yellow.
This is the first of two color boards I painted for my first Design Project. We were supposed to demonstrate knowledge of the Elements and Principles of Design. Honestly... I kind of winged it on this one. As in, I went into this project not really knowing what I was doing, and tried my best with what little I knew.
I focused more on color and shape more than everything, since that was where I felt the most confident. I was honestly disappointed with how it turned out, though my critiques could be called 'good,' I suppose.
Scratch boards! After a slow start, I eventually landed myself a theme: Ancient tablets! I decided on making my canvas look similar to a museum display case. The text is read starting from the left board, from left to right. All the text is facing outward.
The boards themselves are based on The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker. The colors of the boards correspond to the three Goddesses of Hyrulian Lore: Din, Farore, and Nayru, with Brown (think petrified wood) for Farore, Red (fire) for Din, and Blue (water) for Nayru. In the Wind Waker, after completing Dragon Roost Caverns, Forbidden Woods, and finding Jabun, Link earns three Pearls that represent the three goddesses. On the Item Screen, they are placed differently, with Din being in the lower left, Farore being in the lower right, and Nayru being up top. I originally wanted to place my scratch boards similarly, but did not realize my mistake until after the glue had dried.
Also, fans of Zelda may notice that the script on the boards is not Wind Waker's script. When I first started out on these boards, the first board I started on was the center one, and I used Skyward Sword's script for that. So I decided, to be consistent, to use Skyward Sword's script throughout.
