Sherlock, D

I am an artist who enjoys working with colored pencils. I love the way they blend, how I can really make the drawings look realistic and come alive, and also how the colors attracts a person’s eye to really study and focus on the piece of art work. I feel that my style of artwork in my portfolio is clever because their backgrounds are always confusing, but my focal point is very detailed and clear to identify. I selected the work I submitted for my Art Portfolio because I believe that my work is very powerful and not many people can relate to the overall style of my work. In many of my pieces I like to create hectic and strange backgrounds in order for them to stick out. I also chose these pieces of work because they were created over a long period of time; therefore I believe they should be seen by others to get feedback in order to see if my work paid off or if I need to do things differently. Once people see my work my hope is that they really study it. I hope that they take the time to focus on it, and understand why I do things the way I do them. Once people see my work I want them to be overwhelmed with the designs and colors. I want my art work to stick out and be different than other people’s art pieces. Art plays a major role in my life. Art to me is an activity that I can do to get away from the world from a while. Art is a way of expressing oneself, it really allows me to clear my mind and draw what I feel. Art allows me to get weird but lets it be okay to be that way. Art allows me to express myself in any way during the time I am doing art work. Art is a very important part of my life. ||
