First 3 pieces
For the first week of WARP I received my first assignments. Our assignment was to get inspiration from household objects that we considered art. Below you will see what I used as my inspiration, a wooden decorative skull mask and a deer skull. Those were the elements I wanted to incorporate into my pieces.
I made four pieces instead of three for the first assignment, mainly because I disliked the first one I made. One of them is a small acrylic piece that shows two decorative skeletons, the other three are done in water color. The larger water color piece has a blue skull to match the household object which the other two pieces were colorful deer skulls. The feedback that I received for my pieces is that they had an illustrative/storybook style and that they were kind of small.
Two small works
The next assignment were the two small works. Everyone was
supposed to bring a material, doesn't matter what it was. Then all the materials were placed on the table and everyone had to grab three materials; a material to draw on and the medium to use. I grabbed acrylic paint, oil pastels and wood to paint on. For my pieces I kept with the theme of the colorful deer skulls (especially blue). For my round piece it had a plain wood background and the creature had black fur, for my feedback I notice that non of those aspects were liked so I changed them, I gave the creatures body more texture and color and I painted the background yellow. For the second piece the only feedback was to rust the nails so that it matches the piece.
In-Depth Project.
The In-depth project was supposed to be our ambitious piece. I wanted to keep the theme of the blue deer skull and flowers so I did. My piece is made using watercolor, acrylic, string, ink, and glitter. When it came to critique my piece was not very much liked, there were flaws such as the color and the placement and that it was hard to understand the emotion, but I very much liked my piece and I will still accept their feedback.
