Throughout this year i have improved my art skills not only have i learned to use different media, but i have also learned to get pushed out of my comfort zone. I will say that i do owe alot of this to Mrs Rossi not only because she obviously taught us how to use new media but she also will CONSTANTLY nag and push you to go bigger and better. The three most common things i hear from her are to go bigger, add more value, and put in a background. And although at first i thought it was a little annoying i learned that when she pushed me i am capable of doing more that i originally thought. For my first example i am going to once again call upon my self portrait. In general i like to draw animals and nature and creepy things but never people, i never thought that i was much good at doing that and i didn't really have an interest in it. But low and behold i do, thanks to Mrs Rossi reminding me that i can do it even though it isn't naturally easy for me. By the time i had finished the self portrait project i actually found myself wanting to draw people and that i had learned how to portray emotion! Which can be seen in my final project with theatrical sad and happy face. I feel like this ironically gave my piece balance and the difference in shapes actually gave it much more character. For my second example i want to talk about my perspective project. Before this i had never touched a prisma color in my entire life. But i actually think this is my favorite piece of this year because it came out so realistically and i really like the angle that i drew it from. Although i dearly dearly do miss Lilly im glad i could at least have this drawing of her. The colors in this drawing are very very bright and i think they make each other pop so well and i really love the texture i was able to create after hours of layering.
