"Do It" - Andrea Martinez

 Adnan, Etel

Instructions: 

  1. Take a white piece of paper, 1 by 1 meter. Find a good, sharp pencil, sharpen it if its point is dull. 

  2. With your pencil draw a grid of 9 little squares by 9 little squares, 81 squares in all of the equal size.

  3. Take 10 crayons (oil pastels). 

  4. Think of the rainbow, its colors, its freshness.

  5. Let’s have 10 colors, for example red, purple, orange, yellow, dark blue, light blue, brown, ochre, dark green, light green. Keep them in this order (or any order you wish).

  6. Fill the first upper left side little square with ted, evenly painted red, carefully painted.

  7. Then purple for the next square, then orange, then yellow, then dark blue, then light blue, then brown, then ochre, then dark green, then light green. You will be at the end of your top row. 

  8. Go back and start on the new line at the left side with light green, which will fall under the red square. 

  9. Then continue: red, purple, orange, yellow, and so until you fill in the last little square on the right of your bottom line, which will be red. 

You will obtain thus regular patterns, rhythm, brilliance, a nice painting. You won’t need special skills for such a beautiful result. Try it. You may, but I hope not, be weary in the process…

Process: 

    For my process, I change the measure of the square and it is a little small. Also, I change the material because I don’t have any crayons or oil pastels. So I decided to use markers. The results were amazing, I liked how the colors work together. Like the artists said it gives that brilliance, rhythm, and nice painting finish.
