Summer Artwork
Over the summer I have created original artwork. My still life that I worked on was not easy for me. I chose to use some freshly picked tomatoes from a local garden on Cape Cod. I did I rough outline then I went back in with colored pencils to work and try and make it as lifelike as possible. It took a lot of layering of the colored pencils in order to get it right but I am pretty happy with my work. I also developed my artmaking skills, before doing the still life I wasn't very comfortable using colored pencils to make things look life like. But now that I have finished I feel better and a lot more confident about it. With this, I certainly took a risk, going into this, I knew I wasn't very good at using the colored pencils the way that I hoped, but in the end, I am pretty happy with my results.
