For this week’s activity, we had to write our name using bubble letters then color it in using paint. This could be done on whatever background and if possible in graffiti form. Since I am in quarantine, I was not able to go out and get these materials so I had to do my name on paper. I first started with simple big letters which I then tried to draw a “bubble” outline around each letter. After, I tried adding little marks to show more depth in the drawing. I actually had no idea how to do that so I looked up some examples of bubble letters and copied the marks. I then colored the letters using a blue and orange color pencil that I found laying around. I don’t even think I’ve used them since middle school or sometime then. In all honesty, the drawing above was my 3rd time drawing my name. I just couldn’t get the letters to look correct the first two times and I was pretty happy with how it turned out since I am not that great of a drawer. I think it would’ve been fun to try to graffiti since it isn’t something that is done normally and I have no experience in working with spray paint but I guess I would need to try it sometime later in the future when I have both the materials and not be stuck in quarantine.
