I drew this because I really like to draw in the first place. I like to draw cartoon characters and dark mysterious pieces. They interest me the most out of everything I could draw. My family inspires me but mostly my sister because shes mostly Gothic so I know some weird things about what they do. She taught me how to draw as well so that may be the most part of why I like dark mysterious images. When you think about dark images you can think about a lot of things because it all means several things, murder, sadness, loneliness and etc. I used lines to make my piece, to make some things that were involved on the walls and ground. After I did all that I used oil pastels to color in my piece. I didn't like what I did because they didn't really blend the colors in that well but I guess if I could change anything it would be the material I used to color my piece. I think my art piece means mostly that there's this dark abandoned alleyway and there's these mythical creatures that take over it as their home. They live there happy until there monster who has the bigger shadow walks into the alleyway. If you have seen warm bodies its like how the zombies who have hearts are afraid of the other type of zombie.
True Lovers
I chose this art work because love is another thing I love to draw. It has a lot of ways to show it and they can be very creative. I think its neat to draw people because they aren't my best suit. My inspiration would probably be my best friend Chris. Hes been in my life for a while and he shows me what its like to truly love someone like a brother you've never had. I don't think I could get far if he wasn't my best friend. Then my family is another inspiration because without them I probably wouldn't have anyone who would truly be there for me through thick and thin. We all stick together no matter what happens. I used paint to color in my couple. I made them light colors because I think of love being a light orange or red. I colored my people black because I wanted the sun to be shining on them so its like the sun is basically making them into a shadow who will never separate from each other. This art piece means a lot to me not just because its about love but its more then just love to some people. Its not about having a boyfriend who makes you happy its more like a best friend you could never lose or the family some others don't have anymore. I get a feeling of being thankful for what I have in my life and what I know others don't have. If someone doesn't realize what they have tell them they have more then what some others have..
Abundant
I made this piece because it was something that seemed to interest me from the point of view of being abundant. Creepy! Mysterious things Make me draw what I drew in this even though it may not look mysterious to you, to me I know what it is supposed to feel and everything. To make this I mostly used water color. I used like some water color outliner which wasn't a good idea because when you put the lighter wAter color over it! It makes it leak everywhere but in the end it made the piece look even better. To paint the gray I used fast strokes to make it seem more like creepy and I think worked really well. To me I think my art means This abundant house is feeling lonely or something so what it does is when children come over and play in the yard! It tries to get them into the house so then when they are inside they are no longer allowed out. The only reason the people who go in can't get out is because the door from the inside is no longer there and can only be opened from the outside? It's just supposed to Be mysterious and creepy and I think it explains that well towards me anyway.
Jolly Snowy Christmas
I made this piece because I saw a picture of the moon on the Internet and thought about a nice, calm background to go with it and thought something Christmas like would go great with the time of the year. My motivations would mostly be the people around me because they would tell me how good it looked at the time while I was still working on it. All I used basically was colored pencils to color y who piece. I colored the whole piece going horizontal so it looked better at the end. I scribbled some ever green trees as well to make it seem like they were behind everything and didn't have to look to detailed which was nice. I think my art piece is just basically the whole meaning of happiness, using bright colors of blue and mixing them makes the whole piece stick out from all my others. I wanted it to have some kind of good feeling and I think I really set off the feeling very well. I'm sure others could tell some kind of good vibes coming off of this piece. I would have to say this is my favorite out of all my pieces because it looks well done, pretty and the feeling comes out really well.
