Art Gallery 3







1. Why did you select the inspiration pieces?
I selected this self portrait of Vincent van Gogh because multiple colors in his face and the lines that showed movement in the background. I selected  Pablo Picasso's self portrait because i liked his pose, and it seemed to go with his monochromatic theme. I chose Claude Monet because his self portrait was very realistic and he showed lots of texture in his beard. 

2. Why did you select the media to create your self-portrait?
I chose colored pencils because it was easy and less intimidating than paint. 

3. What challenges did you face in creating your self-portrait and how did you overcome them?

I had troubles starting because i wanted to draw it perfectly to my photo but i lacked the skill . I overcame it by just doing the best i could.
 

4. How does this piece represent you?
It represents me because its not very fancy and has colors that i like. 

5. What elements and principles of art did you apply in this work?

I used texture for my mustache and beard. I used harmonious colors. I also used rhythm in my pencil strokes.
6. Did you enjoy working on this project?

I enjoyed it more than i thought i would.
7. What do you think of your final artwork?

I think it looks good. It turned out better than i had expected.
