My art is a pencil drawing with a woman with long hair, arm crossed, and eyes closed. The background is a newspaper. I created my art by sketching, blending, and gluing. This project is about going to New York with my grandma. We have always talked about going and since then it has been our dream to go and see all the buildings, shows, and food. This project faced multiple difficulties and threw me into a different direction. Which threw me off track. My project expresses the theme of New York. My goals as an artist Is to reach more creativity and express more emotion through my art. From this project I learned that I need more time to work on my project and I need to work slower and be set on what I want to draw and not switch up my project half way through. Also to just trust the process.

This piece I sketched and painted  to be a pumpkin on an old wooden table. This painting  is a traditional still life painting. The title of my art piece is called the lonely pumpkin. The media that my art work is made from is acrylic paint that surfaces on the paper canvas but the media I used on my sketch was a pencil and  a piece of  sketch paper.  My goals as an artist are exploring out of my comfort zone and learning new techniques and painting styles. This piece is helping me reach my goals as an artist by learning and getting used to shading. The final piece is what I imagine it to be. This piece of art influenced my future art piece by  improving my painting skills and patience.

My art piece is a close-up cut-up orange. I started sketching an orange in my sketch book, then went over and started drawing on my canvas. After I sketched on my canvas, I started painting the background black, and started stroking different values of orange on the orange. I chose to paint an orange because it symbolises passion and creativity, and I feel that art is surrounded by creativity and passion. This artwork exceeded my goal, and I feel really proud of it. This was my first time using mog podge, which made the orange glossy or "juicy   I did not imagine artwork to be higher than I expected. This piece will influence my future artwork to push myself .
