I have shared my knowledge and asked for help from a classmate to help me throughout this project. She helped me picked the picture that I was going to draw. She also helped me with deciding the way that I was going to paint it. She basically helped with a lot of it.
I took a big risk with this one. I tried to draw my body and made myself look super deformed. But I know that this work represented me, so that the only thing that I was really worried about. There still plenty of things I need to work on in art so i think all of this was a big risk. Title: La couturière (Sewing)

As this class goes on I'm learning more techniques just about every week. I try to grow on my work and put the techniques i learn into it as I go on. Sometimes I think I just overthink things that my teacher teaches. But once I get it all down, I think there will be a big difference in my artwork.
If you look at any of my work and then look at me, you can tell that I communicate through my work. In my home artwork, I drew a thing with the Dickinson Fighting Gators on it and if you know me you would know thats where I come from. I will forever represent them no matter where I'm at because thats what I know as home. On my upcoming Flight artwork, I plan on doing an airplane. This will represent the moves that I want to make in life, traveling over the world to get my family somewhere. I had a problem that I had to solve. I didn't have anything that I could think of to draw as an environment. But after I thought about it, I just realized I could do a basketball court. It took me a while trying to think of something so i just had to ask for ideas. But that turned out working good for me because its also something that I can relate to as I'm drawing.
It is true that artists communicate through their work. If a artist is sad you can tell that he/she is by what they are drawing. With me drawing a basketball court, i think that shows people my love for basketball. There are different ways to express your feelings through your work. Just draw what you feel sometimes and you'll be amazed what you end up with. |
