THINK

     I created this art piece because I felt like it related to parents or just people in general doing things for people they love no matter the situation. I felt like with the birds it would be a good Idea to send off this message. I was hoping to create something that people would be able to look at and relate to in their own way. People take in pictures differently and get a different meaning out of it. This picture to me communicates love and calmness. Also that when it is dark and rainy it can also come out to be bright. The sky in my art is dark and the grass is bright. I achieved my overall picture for this project. I feel that it turned out great.

    Compared to my other art work this piece does not relate to my other work. With this project was kind of easy. Drawing the birds was the easiest. Because it is mixed media I had to have about three or four things that were not the same and of different objects. I decided to use markers for the sky and a hot glue gun for the rain. I felt like that was the most creative. The rain and the grass made my work more of a 3-D type of work piece. I painted the birds and I used a silverback tac for the bigger birds eye. I did not really use any other pictures for this project. I just thought of it. My birds do not really look like any specific type of bird, I just drew and it came out how it came out.

    My art relates to the world I live in because people today to alot for other people. It shows giving and doing what’s good for people you love, it gives/show's purpose. This art pieces relates to me because I give to everyone and anyone. I am a giving person. My piece could impact the world because it could be used as do as your parents/ someone who loved you did for you. Give and you will be given to. Patience is key in doing any art work. And just doing and and see where it takes you. With mines I just started drawing and a bird came. With painting i just grabbed colors and that is how my art came out the way it did. You just have to not think about it and just do it. I think that, that is where the best work comes from.

In contemporary art my work fits with an former artist named Keith Haring who is no longer alive. I believe that my art piece fits with his, iIt gives off the feeling of letting people think what they want about it/ people having their own perception of what they think your art piece means. My art piece is pretty obvious that there are two birds and the bigger bird is feeding the little one but that can mean anything. Keith’s art is with two stick figure people in a room with lines above their heads which could mean they are at a party or they are trying to help each other out. There are so many other ways you could see that art as.

Doing this piece I was not inspired by any other work.

In conclusion, I am very proud of my artwork. I feel that mixed media art has pulled a more artistic side from me, taught me that art is not always planned, it will never ever come out how you want it to. Overall I like that a lot of people will look at my work and think of different things like the meaning and why I did certain things the way I did them.
