Second Semester Gail Adams Piece

This is the picture that I worked on during the second semester of my Gail Adam art classes. It is a picture of Kjartan Sveinsson from the band Sigur Ros. It is done in chalk pastels, which have become one of my favorite mediums.

For Meghan

My brother's gf liked my Eiffel Tower so much, she wanted me to paint her one. All she told me was she wanted it in brown and the tower to be white. So my brother and I went shopping and picked up the canvas and the paints, I also got the gold, because women love gold. I finished it and surprised her with it when she came here last, and now its hanging up in their home in Calgary :) I am really pleased with the way this painting turned out

Final Piece of Grade 11

M.I.A. & chalk pastels!! Two of my favorite things

Newspaper Assignment

I used newspaper for a background on this piece. I then painted the three colors for the background and then did the dark green design. After that I cut out a picture of Janelle Monae (who is a sweet singer by the way, I love her song Sincerely, Jane) and gave her a serpent body and some wings, i sewed some string, glued some colored sand, pieces of mirror and colored dots. I love the picture of Janelle, it's such a funny pose :D

SCYAP Project

This was my piece I had made for our SCYAP show. Acrylic paint, pencil crayon, and marker was used. It was kind of a collection of different things and ideas.
