A Random Something

This is my Mandala project. I had no idea of what it was going to turn out like and I was actually surprised. I kind of like it. And I have no idea on what the colors should be. Any suggestions?

The Old Shack

This was my sculpture. It's basically an old run down shack. Honestly it's my least favorite projects I did this year. The project itself was nice, I am just not proud of mine.

Elements Of Art

Deliberation by Mario Sanchez Nevado (2012)

    

“Deliberation” is a digital piece made by Spain artist, Mario Sanchez Nevado in 2012. It shows a girl faced sideways, burying her head in her hands and she it is in black and white. Parts of her body seems to be cracked and seeping an orange-ish color that seems to imitate fire. Her head looks like it is exploding and bursting out strings of black. The background is mostly plain with the exception of cracks near the body, and the head explosion pieces. Lastly, there are small blasts of reds and black dots here and there, all near or on her body. 

The majority of the artwork is black and white. The focus on the piece is somewhat loud, however, not overcrowded. The two colors, orange and red, make it pop out and the cracks in her skin give it dimension. The direction of the girl is facing sideways and that is constant with the rest of her body and the details on her head explosion. I would not say that there is much repetition; however, I do see rhythm with how all of the shapes and colors work well together and flow. There is a lot of fine detail, which enhances its quality in my opinion.               

I believe that this piece has a whole lot of deep meaning to it. For one, the name of the artwork is called “Deliberation” which is contemplation or deep in thought. Her mind is exploding and her body is cracking and releasing fire. This tells me that she is more than likely deep in thought, and whatever she is thinking about must be tearing her apart. It can even be a very hard decision that puts her into a dilemma. Dilemma has often put a lot of stress on an individual. The shattered pieces In the blank background can symbolize the emotional trauma that whatever is going through her head is putting her through. In addition, I believe that if you pay close attention to its aesthetic detail, this piece can reflect on oneself and make us rethink certain decisions or conflicts and how they affected us mentally.

            I personally love this piece because of its deep meaning. Any form of art with deep meaning is something that I would instantly enjoy. This piece captures surrealism and makes you think. I love how I can relate to it in a sense. Making decisions is the hardest thing for me, and it usually tears me apart on the inside, making it seem as if my head will explode. Along with the meaning, I love the way it was made. With all the colors and how the black and white contrasts with the bright orange which makes it pop out. I love how there is not much going on in the background which puts more focus on what is happening. It is not too loud and not too minimalist.Overall, I enjoyed this piece.

Ukelele

This is my cardboard bas relief. It's a ukulele. I don't like it much because it's not my usual style but it's OK.

"Human"

This is my metal drawing piece. At first I didn't know what to do but then I just kept on going with my sketch and creating lines and eventually I liked it. It seems deep. And giving it the name "Human" to me just makes it sound somewhat deeper.

The Deceased

This is my sculpture. It's supposed to resemble a face that looks slightly creepy. It's not supposed to be clean and soft, I wanted the messy look. Maybe like an ancient sculpture of a face or skull, withered away with some of the dust still in the eye holes.

Dreamboard

My main goals for 2017 is to start my YouTube channel, be more active, talk more and get into gaming. I have a lot of goals set for this year, but these are just some of the few. I also want to do a lot more photography, get into fashion and I really want a job.
