Final Reflection Essay

Talking art 2 was a great choice. Even though there was many projects I struggled in and there was many things that I didn't like, I still learned a lot and there was many things that I've enjoyed. Art 2 showed me more about my own personalities and made me come out my comfort.
During art 2 my most challenging project we did was the Chuck close self portrait. This was my most challenging project because this project had to look the most realistic. Also by this project having to be a drawing of myself I wanted it to be perfect. The hardest part of making this portrait was scaling the picture and the piece of paper that was used.
The project that I enjoyed the most was are free choice quarter, I enjoyed this the most because I was able to do what ever I wanted and I believed I did a great job. I decided to use paint and for the first time while in art 2 it was very successful.
My favorite type of art style is nonrealistic, this is my favorite because it doesn't necessarily have to be perfect. Even if you mess up others my not notice it because it doesn't have to be perfect.
During this whole year with art 2 my worst experience had to be when we used clay. Every time we used clay it was an disaster. I would make a huge mess, never fully finish my project or if I did it never looked like I wanted it too.
In conclusion, art 2 showed me that I liked nonrealistic projects better than others. I struggle more in realistic drawings and that I don't like using clay at all.

The colors I used to blend for the first circle were blue black and purple for ski. I also used different yellows and oranges with grey for the lights. On the second circle I used a mixtures if browns and golden colors for the skin town and different reds and browns for the eye makeup. The original image for the first circle was damn and the second circle the original image was a women's eye. The hardest part of this project was the mixing of colors, I felt the color pencils made it harder I wish I could have used paint. The strengths of this was actually drawing the images it wasn't so hard.
