Terribly sorry for the picture being sideways, I couldn't figure out how to turn it right side up on my phone. I'm going to be completely honest, at first when I went into drawing this project it was going to be an independent project for art class, instead of my final. But since it was viewed as my final, I'm just going with the flow. The subject of the picture, is a water creature. The water creature is suppose to coincide with when I was younger, I also drowned but then a dog saved me. Probably why I like golden retrievers so much. So the water creature is having their hands open, welcoming the viewer into their arms. Then like in old paintings, the main subjects representing a godly figure, so they have a halo around their head. I also added a darker blue behind the water creature. what the water creature, and the water cape is suppose to represent is like embracing the viewer into the water. Then I added the halo going from the color yellow, to orange, then red. I really don't know what it's suppose to be, but I like it at least! overall, the whole project was me messing around and "winging it". That's been my moto all year. I personally think the pictures that go unplanned, and are produced from " winging it" are the best because it just goes with the flow. Art shouldn't be planned, it's created through the short inspirations we have. It's been a great pleasure having you as a teacher Ms. Heidamen. You have helped me improve my artwork, dealt with my very late art blog posts, and my random artwork. You have been my favourite teacher ever since geometry, and until the end of my highschool career. I hope I get you as my teacher for ap art next year, have a great summer Ms. Heidamen!!!! (:
I accidently deleted the draft to this, which I am terribly sorry. This one is my least favourite, for I attempted to draw arms and such. To be honest, I drew the flower there to avoid drawing the hands because for one, I'm bad at drawing hands, and for two, I probably should have drawn the flower in the hand white, with no petals, and the one with the petals on the head. I think it's nice clashing complimentary colors together. So the message is "take care of yourself. You only have one body", which in the most part is true. I know a lot of people that do not take care of themselves. Not in like a cleanliness way, but like a physically and/or emotionally way. It makes me very sad that the loveliest people I know, hate themselves the mosts, and hurt themselves for it. Maybe if each and everyone of us took a second to compliment everyone, it could help them in a sense, maybe make themselves feel a tiny bit better. In the end, we all really do only have one body, and one life. Might as well live life to the fullest. I personally like how this one came out. It's cute, and simple. I have always liked freckles, and moles, and pretty much everything because it distinguishes one another from each other. There wasn't much change between my draft and final, I just had to add the positive message. I realize now that I capitalized galaxy, which I do not understand why I did so. I do know that writing capital g's in cursive is fun!! |
