For this assignment we were to try one of our classmates chance operation systems and write a little about it. I chose MJ's because their idea reminded me a lot of a cootie catcher or paper fortune teller.
MJ's instructions:
1. Choose a color.
a. Pink
b. Blue
c. Purple
d. Red
e. Green
f. Yellow
2. Choose an emotion
a. Happy
b. Sad
c. Confused
d. Angry
3. What is your sign?
Aries = Bunny
Taurus = Guinea pig
Gemini = penguin
Cancer = hedgehog
Leo = panda
Virgo = axolotl
Libra = frog
Scorpio = cat
Sagittarius = cow
Capricorn = dog
Aquarius = coy fish
Pisces = duck
4. Go to google, search the emotion and the animal, then choose the 5th photo that shows up in images
5. Trace over the photo with the color you chose
6. That’s it :)
My Result:
Artist's Statement: I chose purple because it is my favorite color. The emotion I feeling at the time was sadness, it had been a rough day, and my sign is Leo so I drew a panda. The 5th photo of a sad panda was a panda hanging out in a tree. I really enjoyed this project because it made me feel better to look at a cute animal and also it was very simple and relaxing to trace over an image. I used Procreate on my iPad so it was very easy to load up the photo and trace it. I think this would be a great way to get out tough emotions on rough days or express happy emotions on good days.
Thanks MJ :)
