sketching assignment

heres my new sketching assignment. i really left my project up to the choice of the computer for this project.

rules:
create a grid using the line tool at pt.1 (don't worry too much about making them all the exact same size, but make it close.)
select a brush that you like (i suggest something like the flowers, leaves, or rubberduckies, etc.) under "brush presets" check the boxes marked "shape dynamics," "scattering," and "color dynamics"
select a color you like
go onto the grid and click once with the middle of your brush at each line intersection.
do this for the entire grid
when you are finished, hide, or delete all of the "grid layers"

this creates a very random, spontaneous depositing of the leaves, butterflies, or whatever you decided to use. also, you do not choose where it is going to go, or what color it is going to be... the computer does. this got very frustrating at first because sometimes the stamp wouldn't go anywhere close to where i clicked. but after i finished the whole result it normally balanced out pretty well.
for my first two, i created the grid myself. for the third one i went into the "view" bar and selected "view grid" this gave me a perfect grid to work with easily. it did not really change the overall look of my piece. it was a lot easier, and took a lot less time, but left the project with less chaos and chance. in the first one, i didn't create a new layer before starting the brush tools. when i got to the end i tried hiding all of the grid layers and had to leave the last one because otherwise, my whole project disappeared! i went back and erased the lines that were easily exposed, but had to leave them over the flowers. this did not upset me though because it was chance. for the rubberduckie one i left the grid there so you could get an understanding of what i meant. i like these projects. they are simple, yet... neat.
