Choice artwork
- To make my artwork I used pens and colored pencils to scribble on the background so that the glitter would have a base color. After that I rubbed a glue stick over the paper and sprinkled some iridescent glitter on top. I rubbed the glitter into the paper with my hand so it would look more seamless and smooth. I then glued a piece of paper cut into the shape of a head on top. Finally I took some white out and dotted it everywhere to complete it.
- I chose to use iridescent glitter because I wanted my art work to look more ethereal and almost like it was glowing. I don’t have an abundance of art supplies so I just used whatever I had. I also used the colored pencils for color and the white out for some contrast. I made my artwork the best I could by using all of my possible resources and trying to take it to the next level even when I thought I was done.
- Some problems I had while making my art work was trying to distribute the glitter evenly on the paper. I also had a mishap where I spilled to much blue glitter on one spot so I had to do the same with the other colors on different spots so it didn’t happen look like a mistake. I think the most successful thing about my artwork would have to be the effect of the background as it looks like it is glowing.
