Reflection
After learning about how De Kooning would add more to his abstract paintings to make it look more interesting. Like his famous one, "Woman III." Lucian Freud was the same way, but he was more imperfect when it came to painting the body at a close glance. Alice Neel's painting is ordinary yet very telling when she would paint something people wouldn't usually see. Her art excites me because you can see stories told by the artist or the person the artist painted. I don't have a particular favorite, but Alice Neel's painting is simple to me because I can stare at it and never get tired of it.

The art pieces I chose are to show the completion of this semester. How my choices reflect my growth from the beginning of the semester towards the end helped me progress in improving my ability to comprehend what was asked of me. It expressed my creativity by pushing past my limits and exploring things outside of my comfort zone, like colors. I still need to work on drawing straight lines with a ruler. My work expresses how long it would take me to process an idea that would work with other colors and the design of the art.

Final Assignment
The album: Ordinary monsters
Album: One-x by the three-day grace.
Choosing the book Ordinary Monsters gave me a lot of ideas when I was reading it. The thrillers, the actions, and the fear for a character I like when they were in danger were terrific; it also shows how the monsters are hidden as ordinary people while hunting down the children. The Album One-x, I listened to it from time to time while creating stories and artworks; this Album is dark and emotional (I am not saying I'm depressed; I listened to this band as a kid) sometimes, but it helped me to understand some of the lyrics they sang like the song "Get Out Alive." It is saying not to trust people with your life because it will be stolen and because I like the beats they make. The way I approached this project was by listening to music (the band) to get in the habit of sketching out an idea, picking the one I liked more, and continuing with that idea. It took 4 sleepless nights to paint the book cover with a scared little girl with a crow flying in front of her left eye and the Album of a glass ball hitting the ground and cracking as it collides with the ground and blood splatters in the background. I decided to go with the same color as the Album because the music was giving the same vibes.
In the end, I am pleased with how both pieces came out; I am exhausted due to the difficulty of getting the skin tone I wanted for the girl, and it was the first time I had painted a full crow.

Midterm
The way I approached this was by listening to music that gave off different vibes that you can imagine, the colors I chose were the feeling that came with the music. I used chaos and order with lines going in different directions. I'm proud of how it came out in the end; I just had to trust the process and go with the flow of it. The understanding of the principles is the most crucial part of art; it helped me develop different ideas when I imagined them.
