Study of Donkeys Anatomy





  What I'm showing in my work is Anthropomorphism. In my piece I show anthropomorphism by making the donkey do something that is impossible for him to do but humans do everyday. I put the donkey seated down against a tree and reading a newspaper. Technique that I use to make the donkey sit and hold the news paper was using other programs to learn the anatomy of the donkey. I didn't use my time wisely because it was really confusing to figure out what animal I wanted to study about and what position he was going to be in. I learned that the donkey's Legs are way different than humans and they are facing backwards. I also learned that donkeys and humans have things in common. For example the donkey has hips but bigger and they also have legs that you can break it down into a humans arm. 

  My weakness for this project was time and working on the computer. I think that working in a computer was as good as I thought it was going to be. I also didn't think that I would've get stuck in making the donkey's anatomy. One of my strength was my process and things that I did to know how the donkeys body work. I use pictures of a man reading a newspaper and a donkeys picture and combine them together. What was challenging for me was working with the program photoshop. It was hard because I'm not use to working in computer and painting on the computer. It made it challenging cause I had to make a donkey do something that a human does and also make it in the computer.
