reflection eternal

This was my most successful project because Mr. Sands said that this project deserved an A and that is good enough for me. I liked how the blue highlights the tree and the mantis along with the background. The details on the leaves were pretty cool and the orange and blue stood out on the yellow paper. This print was one over the more vibrant ones out of my normal green/blue/brown variations. Since this project completed all the requirements and the teacher praised it, it is clearly the most successful of my art projects.

Out of all my art projects, the value scale portrait was the one that I learned the most from. Learning about all the shading and different shadows that show on a persons face was interesting and fun. After completing the value scale project I learned that I should be less afraid of the dark and focus more on highlights of the lips, eyes, and hair rather than the shadows. Highlights bring the picture to life.
