Through out art 2 this semester I've grown as an artist. My painting technique and brush strokes after replicating Van Gogh's work I think bettered how I paint. Van Gogh has small layering brush stokes and I've never painted like that before, but as you can see it's something I can improve on. In the last two pictures I have my prepective Lego color pencil drawing and my multi-media JFK collage. I compare these two in idea and process not in medium. The Lego drawing was a simple idea to just draw numerous Legos but it didn't test me as an artist. The piece is very straight forward there aren't any questions about it. In the mixed media JFK piece I didn't have the slightest clue what was going to be the end production. The idea started off as a roller coaster then newspaper and JFK. I rolled with the punches and layered my piece together. Even though there may not be a setting the piece makes you question what is going on. I like making people question my work which is how I've grown through out this semester in art 2.
