Creativity at Work.

Picture
    This is a regular man rushing to work. He may be sitting in an office all day but what he really wants to do is explore his creativity.  He is trapped inside the laberynths daily life has. I used for this project magazines to find the picture and color pencils. I decided to use this materials because I really enjoy working with color pencils because it is easier and I love how it looks. My goal for this project was taking something regular and turn it in a art explosion.
    My weakness in this project was definetly finding the picture in a magazine. This was challenging for me bacause I wanted to find something that could inspired me and nothing did. My strenght was that when I saw the picture I knew exactly what I wanted to do and what colors I would be using and what I wanted to represent with my project. In conclusion, this was one of my favorite projects because it let us be creative with things that already exist.
   

My Life

Picture
    I used for this project: color pencil: color cardboard, photos, magazines, a bookmark, markers, and aquarells. I used all this different mnaterials because I wanted my project to be different, to be unique. My goal for this project was toi put all the things I loved in my life and my goals. There are two photos of my two families, an angel because I love God above all, a phrase about Liga because it is my team, a sunshine that represents my goals and my dreams, some words that represent the importance of thing in my life, and finally a superhero that represents all the persons that helped me in my life. The color green in the background represents nature and hope, it is also my favorite color.
    A very difficult thing doing this project was deciding what to put on it. The planning stage. I had a very difficult time deciding what was important and what wasn't. Besides that, this was a very interesting and fun project because it reflects clearly who I am and who I want to be.


Gondolieri in Venice

Picture
    This is a very significance sketch for me. I made this when I was on the airplane after visiting Venice for the first time. I used water color for this and it is a Gondolieri watching the sunset in Venice. Aquarell was great for this because I could paint the ocean with different tone and also the sun.

    This is one of my favorite drawing I made only because I get all thoise wonderful memories when I went to Venice. Venice is a beautiful city and one of the most important things in Venice, is riding in the canal a gondola. Mt strengh in this oainting is that I had a clear memorie of what was like because I just saw it.
