favourite artwork this semester




One of my favourite pieces from this semester was one I did for my Illustrative Concepts class. The goal was to create an object that exuded an emotion or mood. I chose "serene" and tried to create a stable, steady, and horizontal figure. I also positioned it a little lower on page because I associate serenity with being more grounded but not so low on the page that it would seem sad. Relating to my reblog post, I used the Colour in Motion website to help with colour choice. Blue and green had calm qualities so I incorporated both in much more subtle tones.

I consider this to be one of my best pieces this semester because my classmates found it to be quite effective and it translated really well. In my opinion, the best pieces are one's that don't need to have an explanation.
