1) The artwork that has been the most successful would have to be the one I did for our the theme of Stereotypes. The reason is because I love the overall look of it and I feel like I was able to accurately represent my chosen stereotype of all Americans being fat and lazy. 2) The one piece that makes me feel as if I overcame multiple obstacles would have to be my piece for our most recent theme of Interior/Exterior. This piece pushed me farther out of my comfort zone than I could even fathom due to the challenge being to use a new medium. My first try at the piece made me feel like I was up a creek without a paddle, for I almost never use oil pastels when working on an art project, and went pretty poorly, the colors not being what I thought they were at all. However, after taking the weekend to refresh myself and restart, I feel like it turned out alright. 3) The two pieces that I feel show my growth as an artist would have to be the ones that were created for Stereotypes and Interior/Exterior. Stereotype showcased my improvement on coloring and the ability to bring a mental image to life. Interior/Exterior, on the other hand, displays my attempt in trying to expand in my usage of mediums and showing that I'm not just some one-trick pony when it comes to my artwork. I mean, there's nothing wrong with using one medium throughout your art career, but, it doesn't hurt to try using something else for a change. 4) I feel very much the same about your method of teaching this time around as I did the first time I was exposed to it. The freedom to choose what medium we work with when it comes to our pieces is a breathe of fresh air, helping me shake off the rust that the two month hiatus of summer vacation brings along. P.S. Okay, real talk Mrs. Barnett. This first semester of my Art hasn't been my greatest. My major screw-ups speak for themselves. I know for a fact I could've done much better. That's why I'm glad this is only round one. I hope that in round two, I can display more variety and showcase more pride in my artwork. |
