Free Choice Artwork

Artwork Statement:
In Art II, we have given an opportunity to express what we like to do with what we do best with our own unique style. For our free choice, I made a drawing in a large, white paper using a mechanical pencil of 0.5 lead with chalk pastels as my materials. This artwork shows a better concept of what I like to enjoy doing every day. This piece is an inspiration from the Bible about Adam and Eve. It gives off a perfect meaning of nature and the beauty behind it.

Identity Box

Artist Statement:
In Art II, I have created a box that shows the identity about my characteristics and interest. Using clay as my sort of material, I began to wedge the clay out to flatten the holes and began coiling my box into a shap of a jar. As I was done with the coiling process, I start to smooth our the edges of where the holes are and began to create the objects relating to myself. On the outside of the box, I reveal some things that people usually see me while on the inside, I tend to conceal things in that not many people see me in that sort of idea. As I begin to make this artwork, I not only created it to look unique, but to show everyoen the real me that people know and don't know about me.
 

Abstract Art

Artwork Statement:
I believe that everyone has a beautiful side in them, yet they tend to reject that truth. I was one of them too, until I recognized that being beautiful on the outside doesn't mean anything. It's what's on the inside that counts. For this abstract artwork, I used oil pastels to create my image on a 8.5" x 11" piece of clean, white paper. I started coloring the basic colors first and slowly blending them with other colors to show the direction of where the light is pointing.

Realistic Art

Artwork Statement:
I took consideration of creating this doll as my realistic artwork specifically because it was one of the first gift I got from my aunt back in Wisconsin. It's a special gift that I've gotten from her. This doll shows a personal side of me that tells others how calm, independent, mature, and bright I can be. Using a pencil as my material, I drew my artwork out of an 8.5" x 11" white piece of paper. As I am drawing, I'm looking at my object to figure out the basic posture of the body and work my way there with the details, especially with the shadings.
