Title: Grim Reaper
My Inspiration:
My inspirations for this piece was to show that grim reaper or death is scary to face. For my piece I would say it'll be right at 95% because of the other details I put to it. The piece demonstrates the grim reaper. I think I did a perfect job on drawing the lines near exactly how it is online.
​
My Process:The process of this piece was the four sketches. After the four sketches, I jumped right into drawing the main piece than to painting. I used acrylic paint to design my piece the colors I used was red and white and black and white.
Title: Diamond Eye (owl)
​
My Inspiration: The reason why I chose to draw this piece because the bird which is an owl caught my eye. I believe by getting this picture out the way as far as drawing animals I feel like I can draw other animals. I was looking for diamonds and this is what came up. I am working on the texture of the body to create a perfect contrast. By getting every detail will improve this picture from where I am now.
​
My Process: I started off with four sketches first and decided which one I was going to draw. After that I outlined my the owl's body. Then I went to work on the details on the body. The media I used for this piece was oil pastel.
Title: Coffee Cup
​
My Inspiration: For this piece came from my parents because they always drink coffee I drink coffee every now and then, but that is one reason the other is because other people enjoy it too. So like to say if someone really enjoys coffee they should have a picture of a coffee mug or something in their kitchen.
My Process: I first started out with my sketches of this piece I did one view which was zoom in, zoom out, off center, and point of view. I decide to go with the zoomed in view of the cup so to show that the cup is important in this picture and to show that the picture is about the coffee.
Title: Watercolor Condo House
​
My Inspiration: For this piece I thought about vacation so that's why I drew a beach condo. So dealing with the colors I had to use them the best way I new how as far as knowing how much water to use.
​
My Process: I started out my four sketches first and picked out one that I wanted to be my final. After picking my final I chose the colors I want to use I picked four primary colors which are black, brown, blue, and green. I experimented with the colors to get it the way wanted and went with it. Then I started on my final by starting with the outline of the building to the inside. After the building I drew the outside like the bushes and the sky.
Title: Lil Wayne Portrait
​
My Inspiration: For this piece I thought about rapper Lil Wayne. I chose Lil Wayne because he is my first favorite rapper. I also drew this portrait because I drew him before but it was another picture.
​
My Process: I started out with sketches but it didn't work. So I went ahead and started drawing on my final. Once I started I drew the outline of the face first and then the tats and the facial hair. The media I used was pencil. I worked on shading to complete this piece.
