Some stuff from art class c8
For the second semester of your AP portfolio you're supposed to come up with a theme/concept and all your drawings in class have to have that theme for the rest of the semester. We have to do a painting a week 8E My theme/concept is people showing emotions through body language and color instead of facial expressions, BUT THEN instead of having their faces be blank, or not having a face at all (which would make it confusing because the body is doing something totally different then the face) I decided to have all the people wearing masks, specifically animal skulls. Because a lot of animals symbolize certain personality traits, I wanted to combine the people's body language, plus the animals and colors to really make the person's personality stand out. THIS SOUNDS KINDA CONFUSING but when you look at them you'll figure it out xD Here are some of my favorites ...
