Final Senior Art Portfolio

So for our final Senior Art Portfolio we were supposed to make a sculpture, take 200 photos and edit a select few, copy a piece of work by a famous artist, draw a bike, and then draw observations from outside. However, as you can see, I sort of drifted away from the assignments, going back to how it was 1st semester. The first photo you see is what I worked on for basically all of the quarter. It was the most proudest piece of art I've ever drawn/painted. I found this picture off offline and fell in love with it. I knew from the first time I saw it that I wanted to recreate it. The hardest part was making the eyelashes and also creating the pupil of the eye. I didn't know how to make such feathered looking eyelashes and it was hard to mesh the colors in for the pupil. Other than that it was great making the painting and I had to step out of my comfort zone in order to create it.

The painting below is another picture that I found offline that I fell in love with. It's still a work in progress but I'm very happy with the result as of now. Especially with the sky inside of the hand. Those small stars were really tedious yet felt great when they were done because it made the piece look so much better. I can't wait to finish it but hopefully it will look like or look better than the original painting.
