Q3 artist statement

For my quarter 3 project I decided to chose the limited palette because I wanted to try something different. For my project I  have created a pikachu because i wanted to draw something different beside a flower. My overall vision of my work is it turned out better than I expect it. I expect my audience to react in a positive way and I think that they will react in a positive way. What I think I’ve achieved through the creation of this art is mixing colors to get the color that I wanted for my drawing. My current work relates to my previous work because I have done it in art. One example of a piece of contemporary art that compares to my art is Spencer Finch because of his use of shapes and color mixture to make his drawing. The first thing I did when making this artwork is I first drew pikachu, then traced pikachu onto a canvas board. After that I traced pikachu with a sharpie, then I started to add color to the drawing. I had to pick three main colors then try and create other colors by combining the colors with each other. The three colors I chose were black, yellow and red. For my palette I had black mixed with yellow, black mixed with red and etc. This art piece really doesn’t express me. I don’t think my work could influence anyone. A new technique that I learned while making this art was making a color guide to create multiple different colors.
