Acrylic Paint, Painting Canvas, Acrylic Paintbrush, Real objects as a reference, lighting as a source

  • The artwork that I have painted reflects the Impressionism period in history. To get to the finished product of my painting, I had to sit and draw a thumbnail of the objects that I saw in front of me by hand. I also had to use some techniques to zoom the objects in on my canvas. The objects had to be accurately drawn, to the size, the shape, the curves, and the level. Painting with acrylic paint was a bit challenging because you had to wait for the paint to dry if you wanted to layer the colors. You had to mix colors together to get a light or darker shade. Also, you could not use a photo as a reference, they had to be done in real time. During the whole process, it allowed me to really pay attention to detail. For example, showcasing where the source of light would be on my painting by looking at the shadows and highlights.

  • Creativity allows me to express my imagination, feelings, and personality. I would say there are no rules when it comes to creativity. It is something unique, it tells a story and is very expressive. There are numerous ways to show creativity, one would only think outside the box.
