My portal project is supposed to take the form of a Victorian house, as seen by the pillars and roof style. The media that I used within this piece, titled "Escape to a New Reality," is pencil and colored pencil. The styles that I used were balance and emphasis, seen by the symmetry of the house as well as the use of color only within the portal. My own thoughts inspired my artwork because I always want to go beyond every day life and be in a place that can't be expressed in words. My goals as an artist are to make pieces that touch people emotionally. I'm not sure if this can help me achieve that goal because you'd really have to understand my purpose for this art before realizing the bigger meaning. I learned through this art that I'm not very good with paint and I need to be better at it because colored pencil doesn't work too well. I need to get better with paint because colored pencil isn't cutting it.
