The kind of art that I like is drawing animals. Drawing animals is a challenge, has lots of detail, and I enjoy doing it. I discovered how much I enjoyed the challenge, and the detail in 6th grade. The first piece that I had drawn was of a baby tiger, and it took approximately 4 hours. Once I was finished though it was wroth the time and the pain in my hand. lol

The one kind of art that I would really like to make is more of the scenic look, because I do not know much about how to mix the colors and get the right texture. Also because I like more of the nature kind of drawings/portraits, and I would like help in perfecting it, or as least try. For my animal art one thing for sure that I would like to improve on is the different textures of fur, and the shading (ex: if the tiger is lying under a tree and then spots of sunlight are on it) to get the right look. Lastly for improving my art is to learn how to properly add color to the animals.

The kind of art that I am really excited to try is the dot drawings, because it’s very detailed and it looks like it could help me in getting the right shades in pictures. Another one that I am excited for is any kind of painting portraits, because then I can get more experience in how to paint properly.

The influences in my art work are music, and color. Music is one of the main influences because if I’m listening to a mellow kind of song I tend to pick more majestic pictures (tigers, colorful birds, ect..), and slow down on my work. Also when I listen to music I can create a picture in my head that goes with the mood of the song. For example when I am listening to “Into the Ocean” by Blue October I create a picture with water, its storming, and it would be a sad, dull kind of picture. Finally color
