In Progress
Final Piece
I Create Original Art
Being inspired by Andy Warhol, I made this piece with four different color quadrants. This was one of Warhol's famous painting themes. I chose the colors by picking complementary colors off of a color wheel. I also used white to highlight certain areas of the crown. Warhol used a technique like this when painting celebrities faces.
While painting this piece I struggled with making the crown symmetrical and coloring within the lines. Although I did not enjoy painting this piece, I do like how it looks now that it's done.
I Developed my Art Making Skills
Before this project I had no experience with acrylic paint or painting on a canvas. This project taught me how to mix colors to create the colors I wanted. I also learned that with enough paint you can layer acrylics and that acrylic paint works best when all the water has been squeezed out of the brush.
I Communicate Through my Work
This piece came about due to my love for cheerleading and the band Queen. The symbol that represents my all-star cheer team is a crown and the symbol for the band Queen is also a crown.
