The three photos of inspiration
My Snapshot photo
The Artwork
The Questions
I chose those inspiring pieces because they were the only three photos that spoke to me and show interest to me.
2. Why did you select the media to create your self-portrait?I decided to use a computer in order to create a media of "cartoon" like features because I got tired of using paint and charcoal/pencil in order to create art; art should not be limited to using paper on.
3. What challenges did you face in creating your self-portrait and how did you overcome them?
Honestly I did not have any problems with creating a self-portrait. I asked my friend to take a photo of me and he did, then I knew I wanted a cartoon effect, so that's what I did.
4. How does this piece represent you?
This piece represents me because the artwork is me looking at my television while playing video games and the effect of this artwork is "cartoon" like and that's what I was playing at the time
5. What elements and principles of art did you apply in this work?The elements that I used for this artwork is variety because there are many different shades of grey in this artwork.
6. Did you enjoy working on this project?
I honestly did not enjoy this art project because I don't like to take photos of myself at all.
7. What do you think of your final artwork?
I believe that my artwork came out okay because the computer did it for me, rather than myself. If I were to do this the same way the computer did, it would come out horrible and no one will be able to recognize it.
