project 4

final 

draft

idea

Description/ Interpretation: 

This piece is an egg that is breaking in one point and all the pieces are flying out. The background is abstract. The egg represents my life, and the pieces represent all the things I don't have together. I don't have my life together, there should be more pieces. The egg isn't a normal chicken egg because those are boring and the spots make this egg more unique and draws focus from the background. 

Analyze: This piece has contrast between the egg and the background because the egg is super white and the background is colourful. The background has movement because its all going in one direction but the pieces of the egg draw some attention away from the egg itself. 

Medium: For this piece I worked in acrylics and started with the background. I used every colour paint I had to make the background and to mix all the colours together. I started with brighter colours and went over them with darker cooler colours to dull it down. Then I started with the white on the left side and added the pieces on the left. And added the spots at the end. 

Self Reflect:

This piece is really weird. And I don't really like it. I wish i would have done a better job on the shadowing of the egg. I like the background and where I was going with that but I odn't like what I put on top of it. I like the movement and how it seems to flow but I feel as if the egg takes away from that too much for my liking even though the background isnt the main focus.
