Expressionist Painting (Watercolor)




 * My painting is like a expressionist painting as the colors of the owl are unreal and the owl's blue color seems to show that it seems to be contemplating on what to do. I drew the owl as if it was thinking and the sky seems to be getting darker so the owl has to make its decision wisely. I chose the owl as the animals top represent me as the owl is quite a shy animal and sometimes I am shy as well. Another reason why I chose the owl is because the owl often represents wisdom and knowledge and I study quite a lot. I chose the color blue as blue represents calmness and relaxation and I am often quite calm and relaxed. The techniques that I used were: Gradient wash on the owl, Rock Salt on the owl's wing, Blending wash from primary to secondary and dry brush on make the grass strokes. If I would do the project again I would change the Gradient Wash on the owl so the colors seem to change at a slower pace. What I like the most about the project is the trees which have a gradient wash as it looks like the light is shining through the middle of the trees and it is gradual. **

One Point Perspective Room Critique



My room is like a shop for the Antarctica and it has equipment suited for that environment. I chose a shop as then I could draw all sort of goods and things like that. My unexpected environment is on top of a mountain but I don't think that it was the best choice as the room is quite suited to the environment outside. The hardest part on this assignment was drawing the shelves as I kept on getting the lines mixed up. Another hard part was doing the posters as I had to make the writing shrink as it went towards the wall. The thing that I like the most on this assignment is the mountain in the background with the little climbers. I also like the person on the top and his little footprints leading to the flag. Another thing that I like is the helicopter with its searchlight ready to rescue anyone who needs help but the helicopter can't see through the snow. I would change my room theme to a bedroom or something as it is more unusual. If I had to change the criteria I would make the amount of holes a minimum of 4 holes instead of 3.

My Wall!!! Enjoy!
