The main element that I focused on in this particular artwork was texture. This artwork was a challenge for me because I am not used to drawing females. My strength is drawing men women have less facial features to work with in my opinion, whereas man have more dominate features that are easier for me personally to enhance. The texture came in when I started doing the hair which is the main point of the artwork.

Abstract by definition is art that does not attempt to represent external reality, but seeks to achieve its effect using shapes, forms, colors, and textures. Originally I was going to build up making it continuously spiral upward creating an illusion with the straws (the material that I used) but after a while of doing the project I thought of the concept of empty space, which is where this idea came from. Looking at it from a distance the material that I used that was placed inside the figure it would seem as if it is floating in empty space.
This photo was taken in front of my house, I like this photo in particular because it demonstrates the complexity of the fur of animals and just how unique the eyes of a cat really are.
The article is based on a serious of questions that is primarily targeted towards art teachers. With each section there is something new that you learn, the author encourages the reader to really think about the questions and take it further and think more critically then you would normally would. Ponder upon what the artwork is before you make the judgement. To me personally this is more of a lesson plan or a guide for a teacher in the arts.
This picture was taken in a flower field it stood out to me because it was the tallest and biggest one out of all of them. It was separated from the other which made it all the more interesting. This is one of many photograph that I have taken of flowers and animals.
