Watercolour Twist.

For my birthday last year, I recieved some Watercolour pencils from my Sister. I was very unsure how to use them but quickly found a great way. I took popular quotes of films and designed them on Canvas'.
This design is "I Jump, You Jump, Right?" from the film Titanic. I love Titanic so I decided to do this Canvas. I drew on the Watercolour pencil and then painted on Water to make the colour more prominant.

This Canvas says " There was no tale of more Woe, than Juliet and her Romeo". I watched this film in English and really loved it. I drew a dagger to  symbolise Juliets death and Poison to symbolise Romeos death. A cross was also a large plot in the stroy so it seemed relevant.

Eye of Sauron.

My favourite film is Lord of the Rings. I love it because it is filled with fantasy and imagination. It is really cool and I love the Story and the Colours. So, over a Week-end, I decided to paint the Eye of Sauron. I thought that this would be easier than any other Cahracter becuase it was just an Eye.

In reality, I found it quite hard because what I didn't realise, is it is not just Red - but filled with different shades of Red, Yellow and Orange. I was also hard to create the Wispy effect. However, I carried on over the Weekend and I managed to get it finished.
I made this Painting on a Canvas that was much bigger than the others that I has done. This was to ensure that I could fit in all the detail.

Changing Colours.

I wanted to try something a bit more abstracty than the stuff that I had been doing so far. So I decided to do a canvas that changed colour as the shape grew bigger. This is were I painted my Star Canvas.

I also decided to draw a bigger one as one of my Friends decided that she loved it so much.

I basically just went through my entire palette, just painting layers of colour in order.
This is a close up of one of the corners. This is to give you an idea about the layers of colour. I really enjoy using this tecnique. I find it an easy way to communicate the different colours in an object.

Just Dots.

Not too long ago, I was doing a Project in my Art Class. It was centered around Dots, mainly focusing on Damien Hirst, Yayoi Kusama and Traditional Aboriginal Art. It was a really fun Project and we had to design Canvas' with the subject of Dots. These were the ones that I made:

I decided to do my first one in the shape of a Wave. I decided this becuase it is something that is free. Sometimes they are stronger than others and they are unpredictable. They can be high and the can be low and sometime a bit disruptive! I though that this summed me up quite well.
I painted this one with Oil Paints, using the same 3 colours but mixing them together to create new ones.

This Painting is made with brighter colours and with Acrylic Paints. I drew the Dots, painted them and then filled in the background with black. It's alot more colourful than my first one and I wanted to try something a bit more adventurous.
