Sticky situation

Sticky situation 
1. I thought of ideas that were both physically  and figuratively sticky. I picked a wall with wet paint because it was literally sticky.
2. I think my idea was out of the box because it wasn't necessarily a had sticky situation but it is supposed to portray the wet paint being sticky as well as graffiti being somewhat of a sticky situation because it is illegal.
3. My rhythm and pattern is incorporated in the rays of the sun 
4. My choice of media was acrylic. It wasn't very difficult because I have a lot of practice with acrylic paint 
5. The mini lessons helped a lot with technique of painting

Portrait


1. I chose to do myself because I thought it would be interesting to myself and would be easier because I know all the different parts of my face and body.
2. I chose paint samples because I wanted to capture the colors of the picture but I wanted things to not be perfect looking and a little choppy so it looked better from a distance than up close.
3. I took risks buy using a material I had never used before and by going with the flow in my project and not mapping out colors or anything, just doing what I thought looked right.
4. I'm glad I chose not to map out the colors and just kind of put different samples in different places because by the end of the project you can tell the media but you can still understand what the picture is of. My material represented me because paint samples are all about colors and I am very colorful :))))
