Quarter 1 Color Wheel Project - Aliya
Our project this quarter was to create a color wheel. We had to use the primary, secondary, and tertiary colors and add tints to each of them. I chose to make mine a flower because I enjoy drawing flowers and I thought it was a cool way to show off each of the colors. I visioned my flower’s petals all having the same size pedals but when I drew it out it came out as one big pedal then two smaller ones in a continuing pattern. I hope my audience enjoys my painting. Even though it looks simple I hope they understand more goes into it then it looks like. This work relates to previous work I have done because I have done a lot of drawings with flowers that look like this one. I feel like my work fits in with current contemporary art because of all the bright colors. When I looked up different pics of some current contemporary art, a lot were bright and abstract. This project relates to the color wheel created by Sir Isaac Newton in 1706. I got inspiration for my work from past things I have done. I like to draw and sketch flowers so I got the idea from that. An artist that has influenced me in my work is Keith Haring. I just love the colors he uses and how everything pops out. I feel I do a lot of my work like that. I feel like my art could fit in with other bright abstract pieces. I used a darker background to make mine really pop. A certain technique that I used in my work was drawing the lines slowly so the pedals all looked even to each other. I am very proud of this piece. This piece is something that I know I am good at which is drawing flowers. For my next project I hope to go out of my comfort zone and try to draw something new. Art is something I love doing and I want to keep exploring it.
