My Color Wheel Project !

I chose this art piece I created because the original one I chose failed horribly. I kept messing up , and the more I messed up the more I got stressed. With all of my messing up I fell way behind. So I came to my senses to recreate an easier project. My overall visual of my project is that I made a basic color wheel clock. I think i’m doing a little better on this one since it’s basic , and i’m actually taking my time doing it. I expect honest comments because it will help me do better on the next benchmark. My current work relates to my previous work because for my previous work I also chose a difficult project to do , and ended up failing it. I just did a plain , simple, boring project, just to get a grade because I was so focused on doing the big creative one. My art fits into contemporary art because it is not too fancy , yet not too boring. It’s just easy and modern. My art also fits into the history of art because multiple people have created a wheel similar to mine just because its basic. A number of projects I do for painting , I always seem to come up with the better looking ones in my mind , but on paper it’s a different story. I always use hard ideas , when really all you have to do is think simple then when your done your outline that’s when you be extra creative. To come up with my original project I just googled some ideas, but for my final piece I just thought of an umbrella , but then my lines kept ended up being crooked , so I thought I should draw extra lines in the middle of the lines I already had to create more shapes and ended up liking the idea. An artist that influenced me was Georgia O’Keeffe. She influenced me to do my flower color wheel with all of the difficult shapes and the pretty light coats of paint. Another person that influenced me was my friend. I really liked how hers was turning out but didn’t wanna use the same idea so I spiced my up a bit adding the extra lines. A certain technique that is important is drawing very lightly drawing your outline just incase you dont like it and wanna erase it . When you draw too dark it’ll stain your paper. A technique that I learned while doing this project is when painting you do light painting first and then you do more paint just to get an even amount of paint onto your paper.
