Portrait
This piece depicts a portrait of a woman with long hair facing towards the front. I used a line to create texture in the hair. The woman is showing a relaxing feeling.
My inspiration for this piece was that the woman looked beautiful. I created this piece by using line to create texture in the hair. I created this piece using a pencil.
Fruit Basket
This piece depicts a fruit basket with three different kinds of apples. A green, red and yellow apple.I used value to create the light sources in my piece. Emphasis was created by having a dark background making the apples appear brighter. My piece shows that I really like apples and how colorful they can be.
My inspiration for my piece is that I like eating apples. I created my piece by using heavy pressure with the oil pastels. I also used a lot of value to indicate the light sources.
Kane
The tiki has a three leaf crown, an open mouth and is woodlike. I used texture to show the tiki is woodlike, I created a pattern by making line marks in the tiki.he meaning is that Kane is the creator of the universe.
My inspiration for this piece was that I thought Kane had a very powerful meaning and I love flowers so I was able to add some to him.I created my piece by making different textures with the tools and adding more clay to the tiki. I created coils and made the details out of clay like flowers and leafs.
This piece depicts two goldfish. One is a fantail goldfish-colored orange, black and yellow. THe second one is a black moor goldfish-colored
swimming the water. I bothused black with red. line to create texture on the fins of a goldfish.
My inspiration for this piece is that I personally own two goldfish. I love them very much too. I created this piece with pen and ink. I started with
water color and created the texture with the pen and ink.
