Some words that kept coming up across all elements were abstract and simple, so that must be important in my work and perspective!
Test Piece of Art: Flowers Still Life
Made with gouache paint, crayon, colored pencil.
This test piece was based off of just one element of art and design: composition. This gave me the opportunity to experiment with that one element and super simple formula:
- centered (not perfect)
- focused
- simple
Final Piece of Art: Greenhouse Garden Castle!
Made with gouache paint, crayon, colored pencil.
This final project allowed me to experiment with multiple elements of art and design to play off of images I collected in my catalogue :)
Based off of a mix of an illustration from my catalogue and a photo I took of a greenhouse
Along with this subject matter, I picked three elements of art and design to focus on: composition, shape, and color. My formula for this piece was:
Composition
- centered
- storytelling
Shape
- imperfect
- shapes within shapes
Color
- saturated
- overlapping?
Subject
- playful
- greenhouse garden castle
I had a lot of fun creating my final work of art and learned that I can make a style of art that I enjoy with a formula of: storytelling, shapes within shapes, saturated and playful. :)
