Over the past month in art class I did a lot of skill building. We were assigned the project of creating a portrait which is something I had not done before. I set right out to do a lot of tutorials on how to draw an eye, and ear, a nose, and a mouth. This all built my art making skills, and I needed to build these skills so I could make a portrait in the end. After building the skills of drawing I began putting all the pieces of a face together in my sketchbook. After creating a face I needed to pick what style of art I would use for the final portrait. I tested painting with acrylic paint on the sketch book and chose that I liked that. I chose to do the portrait of my mom. I took a lot of risks in creating this portrait because, like I said I have never done a portrait before. I also had to solve a lot of problems in creating my portrait because I had to test around with the paint colors, and fix the skin color. Also by making a portrait of my mom I was creating original art. Instead of copying pictures online I gathered pictures of my mom to create a picture of her.
