Well, this semester has been a whirlwind of emotions and deadlines. The picture on the bottom reflected that as it was done in the moment of it all. I wanted to make that statement bigger, so I tried to recreate it on a bigger medium and it became something very different, as it is illustrated in the picture on top. It looks like the cleanup after the storm and that's okay. The emotions subsided as did the chaos and i guess my mood with the paintbrushes lead me to this. That's one thing I like about art: when you're in a mood or a moment the artist side takes over and when you're done "mooding" or "momenting" you have this visual memory of it and maybe have a discussion about the story behind it. Sometimes it's a good story or sometimes it's just a "this-was-how-my-day-was-going" kind of thing. I really learned a lot in this class and hopefully I'll incorporate those things in future works and my style will evolve and techniques will be more defined. Who knows, maybe I'll finally master the lights and darks :-).
