For both of these works of Art I used watercolor. In my art work you can see there is a little bit of a animal concentration because of the moose, the bird and the 2 elephant pieces that I did before these. I used a paper towel on the moose to get some of the textures. In the humming bird piece I use more pastel colors to show the light air quality of the actual bird. I may add a background to the hummingbird piece but I don't know what to put there yet.
In these pieces I was inspired by a show I watched on national geographic it talked about elephants and the way they latch on to their mother when they are traveling. I used graphite on the bottom image and I did it with no reference to picture. The top image was a water color background and a sharpie outlined and colored in foreground.
I was inspired to do these pieces because my cousin always gets complimented on her eyes. So I wanted to try a new medium and look deeper into the make up of an eye. The first on I was having fun with water color and thought it would be cool to have it drip colorful tears almost. The second one I used what I knew about eyes but it was a little off. Lastly, the third eye I referenced a packet Mrs. Haggarty gave me a step by step guide to and eye but I added some extra details and I used graphite for the medium.
