1) What new skills did you learn as part of this unit?
During this unit I learned how to use different medias to create art such as paint, clay, and printmaking. I learned different techniques for each media and especially enjoyed learning different techniques for using watercolor paint (as pictured above). I was also learned how to sketch and plan artwork as I was required to plan out my art more for this unit than previous units.

2) What project from Unit 3 did you find the most successful? Why?
I found the landscape painting project to be the most successful during this unit. We could choose between acrylic or watercolor paints and were tasked with combining two landscape photographs into one painting. I found this project the most enjoyable and the most successful because I greatly enjoyed using watercolor paints. Also, the shading in my painting worked out well as did the reflection on the water.

3) What media are you interested in using again and why?
I am interested in using watercolor paints again because they are an interesting and challenging media to use. There are many techniques that I can continue to learn and use with watercolor painting such as gradient and transparency which I want to use in the future. Watercolor painting is enjoyable because the finished product never turns out exactly like you originally pictured and that's exciting to me.
