Artist Statement

As an oncoming artist, I like to express my emotions in many different ways. It could be expressed physically, emotionally, and mental. But, my favorite way to express my feelings are through the work of art. For my final project in quarter 1 I’ve decided to create a painting of a galaxy. When I think of a galaxy I feel my body go motionless as if I was floating in the stars and threw the planets atmosphere. When I was painting I used acrylic paints in various colors. If you look at photos of the galaxy you could see many different extraordinary colors. So again as a upcoming artist I had to find out how to blend my colors in with each other to make them look real. I also had to learn how to actually use acrylic paints. My painting represents the universe. In the painting to me what stands out the most is the colors. Without the color you would be dull and there would be nothing to look forward too. With color your eyes winded with hope and your mind would change in hope to see the future.
