My favorite works this year has to be my watercolor painting of the colored light bulbs. I loved how I was so detailed when painting the light bulbs. Also, I loved how well I did, since it was my first water color painting. I really enjoyed using watercolors and feel that this is my biggest strength. In addition to that strength I've also been very good at copying pictures with pencil. I wish I would had done more of that. My weakness had to be with pastels because of my detail ordinated skills I had trouble drawing with pastels. Pastels also were to thick and I had a horrible time trying to simplify my pictures. I loved the way I showed the lighting on my light bulb painting but wish I showed more of a difference between the shadow of the light bulb and the actual light bulb. I've learned a lot about myself in just this semester. I feel like I always doubted myself as an artist but the help of my teacher and friends really made me feel confident when trying something out of my comfort zone. I hope to explore more with water colors and pencil drawings when I go to college so I can finally perfect them. I really enjoyed doing art this semester and it really helped open my creative side of myself.
