Review of all Artworks

The Place Project:

I decided to create a drawing of Hong Kong and Boston combined. The reason behind this is because i felt that both of these two places are my homes that i can always go back to. Hong Kong has always been my second home since i was a child so it is a very important place to me. Boston is the city where i grew up so it's also my home. I really loved how my artwork came out to be. I felt that the buildings were perfectly drawn and the boats were perfectly sized and showed alot of movement. The colors i chose are based on the photos that i found of these buildings and boats.

The News Project:

I decided to draw a picture of a story about the Arizona State misusing an Indian tribes DNA to research other diseases instead of for diabetes. In this picture, i drew one side of the scientists testing the DNA on other diseases and on the other half, the indians being very upset about it on their ground. I really liked the drawings of the houses and background of where the indians lived and thrived off of.

The Candy Project:

This painting was a painting about candy placed in a specific way. I decided to paint a painting of the candy looking like a flower and having the sun in the sky. The reason why i wanted to do a flower is because i wanted to challenge myself a little bit so i decided to place it in that specific way. I placed the twizzlers as the suns ray's and the leaf and stem of the flower. The gum balls were little parts of the flower and the candy corns are the outter petals of the flower. I found this project to be difficult at times because it was hard to get the flower to look even and realistic in a way. My favorite part about the flower is the way i painted the gumballs overlapping each other on the paper.

End of Term Reflection.

This year i think i did exceptionally well. I think the best artwork so far that i am really proud of is The Place Project. It really makes me proud because of the details and color that i added to it.I really like the way it was all placed on the paper and how all the drawings turned out to look like. However there were some other projects that was somewhat difficult for me. One of the artworks was the Candy project. I found it difficult at first because i wanted to make it look like the display but it didn't touch that. It was difficult for me to attempt to make it proportional and have it look alot similar to the model. I eventually got to almost similar by repainting over some of the painting. I think my skills improved somewhat but not that much. I think my paintint skills however improved alot more than it looked like in the previous years.
