Artist Reflection

During this year I have learned how to show more creativity through art. Some of my pieces turned out awful while others weren't too bad. Through this year I have also realized that I enjoy non objective artwork and I hope to improve on that next year. I also really enjoyed boutiques. Painting I like only if the objects are easy and we have a canvas. One thing I didn't like was the box to box painting. It did not turn out good. I am taking two art classes next year and I hope I keep improving. I'm excited for advanced art because I get to focus more on my talents and choose the art work I want to do. 3-D art will also be fun because I like using the wheel. I have already thought of some ideas I could do. Overall this year has been good. I learned a lot of new techniques. I tried some new things. I also had fun! :)

Chicago


The materials I used were chalk, pencil, and paper. The best thing about this picture is the buildings. The worst is the background. The chalk got all over the place. I learned how to blend a little better and to draw from a photo. I could improve on my ability to stay neat.

Little Sperm

I used a canvas board and paint. My favorite thing about it is the little sperm like shapes. My least favorite thing is the rest of the painting. I learned that this was not a good idea. The paint I used was also kind of dried out or old so that also effected the look of the painting.
