Q2 Artist statement

This marking period I made some amazing work and I am proud of that. When it comes to the Blind color contour line drawing it was pretty tough because I couldn't exactly look at the paper. I really liked it though because it was such a challenge and overall I think they came out pretty well. My recreation painting may be my favorite one yet. It was a large canvas 8 by 11 and it took 4 hours to do. I worked really hard on drawing it and then painting it and having it finished in time but I pulled through. I think my work reflects the time and effort I put in. I am very proud of this little mermaid recreation painting. When we had to come up with our own painting something fun came to mind but I had no idea what I was going to do for this assignment. I saw Mr.Herman and I knew he loved Batman so I made a batman painting. Then, we have Aunt bertha. I have no idea where she came from but I wanted to make a person and this was the turnout and I'm not upset because she's the first person I drew fully in watercolor. Lastly, with the drawing I made some colorful bubbles out of the chalk and I think it really pops! I made for my piece of writing drawing I chose two different lyrics and they were both sad and utterly confused quotes that I really liked so I pieced them together and came up with two common broken hearts and as a metaphor a girl who is blinded by love which I really love. Our final assignment was the photo editing which took me some time because I had technical difficulties but they came out really well. My favorite out of all of them would have to be the girl's eye and only her eye has color. I really wanted to do something like this and I did and I am so proud for it. Almost every assignment this quarter took 4 hours and some may have taken only 2 but altogether I am proud of my work for this period.
