In my emotion project I was struggling to figure out what I was doing. I first started by doing sketches of how I wanted the heart to overlap with water color. The sketches were going good. I started off by using water colors for the heart, and then adding extra water to make the water color fall. Durring my final I decided that the heart looked to faded by the water, so I put acrylic paint on top of the water color and painted the heart. I didn't think that the acrylic paint would make the red pop that much! I wasn't expecting the red to become that bold when in my head it was just a little bit faded. I tried to drip the blue water color above the heart but it didn't soak into the red it just ran over which isn't what I thought would have happened. Around my broken heart I used a white colored pencil so the water color wouldn't get on that part of my art. I didn't realize until later that the white was to big of a gap and that the water color just goes on top anyway. 
Artists Collaborate
I was trying to make a parody of the artist Margritte. He has a famous painting of a man in a suit and bow tie standing there with a hat on his head but an apple in front of his face. As a parody I was going to do a buff man with tattoos and a SnapBack as a hat with an apple in front of his face. I took a step back from art and took a minute to actually look at it. I noticed a lot if things such as my arms weren't symmetrical and the proportions weren't right. His arms were to big, his neck was to big for his body and his head was to small. I decided later that I wasn't going to do that idea. The main problem I had was making his body symmetrical. 
Artists Communicate Through Their Work
For my style project I was inspired by the artist Jackson Pollock. After watching a video of him I decided I wanted to try and throw paint. What Jackson Pollock did wasn't just throwing paint, he created messages in his art and used different brushes and objects to create his art splatters. In my art I decided I wanted to do a secret code I only knew about. I was splattering the paint on my canvas and then it looked like it needed dark colors. My color scheme was Pasal colors or light colors. I used, Red, Blue, Yellow, Green and White. I added white to all the colors to create lighter Tints of the color I wanted. Looking at the painting It looked to light. I got black and tried to splatter the paint spellin out my name. My name was easy to do in splatter paint because my name is just lines. I don't think anyone else can tell. but I know the black in my art is my name.
