Third Concentration Piece


For this piece I decided to illustrate an artist. This is different from my first two pieces because instead of it focusing on missing the family and trying to provide for them it is about longing to be out in nature or somewhere other than the city. Even though the woman is painting this beautiful mountain scene if you look out the window she is stuck in the heart of the city working.
I decided to do this piece in pencil because it is my favorite medium. I also tried to create an interesting composition by placing my objects in specific ways. I added color to the painting with colored pencils so that the eye is drawn to it. I am pretty happy with this piece. I put a lot of hard work into and did the best I could.

  2. Hey great job on this piece CC I think that you were using the ideas discussed in class and I really like your background foreground relationship between the painting and the scene behind the women. I really like this piece but I think that maybe going in and adding a little more value to the character in the drawing could stengthen the piece alot because as of now the painting in the drawing is more prodominate than the women herself. But over all this was exellent work and I am glad you joined the class.

  3. C.C.- as we discussed in class, I want you to continue to strengthen the color in this painting. Imagine it is a dream and if this woman is longing to be there - how brilliant the colors would be! Continue to add value as you now see that you can and this will be a very strong piece for your portfolio. Nice work. I'm really proud of your efforts this year!
