Dark Rose - Natikwa Goodwin

For this second quarter for the benchmark the assignment was to create anything you wanted. In order to create this project we had to use the past information we already learned in art.
 ​The artwork I created was a rose. To create this project, first I made a few sketches of rose. Then I finally picked the rose I felt like was the best. From that I drew that rose on a bigger piece of paper. Then I flipped the paper over and colored the back with black chalk. After I colored the back I laid the paper on a hard stock paper. After that I traced put the top of the paper, and the back of the paper face to face. I then, traced the rose onto the paper. After the rose was traced, I painted the outside of rose black. I also painted the inside of the rose red. 
I decided  to make a rose because I felt because I have a liking for roses. My grandmothers name is Rose so I always loved them.
