-Artist Statement-
In my opinion, most of my work isn't the best. Some things I create, are better than others. I have improved a lot over this past school year with my art. I enjoy sketching more than anything else, and I think that I have improved on it since the beginning of the year.
My Personal Best Artwork
My second hand drawing was done in April. I think it's my personal best. I used my art pencils and shading stumps. This had to be done to show my improvement from the beginning of the school year to the end, and I think I did good.
Reflection-
Outside of art I am creative when I dance or write.
The area I am working to improve is in painting or oil pastels.
My favorite project was the Watercolor Zentangles. I loved using the ink and watercolor to create my fox.
Least favorite project: The oil pastel project because it was hard to work with, because the colors would blend, and I didn't do that great.
As an artist, I have improved in everything since the beginning of the year. I have improved a lot in my sketching and drawing.
