Song Painting Responses
Write a paragraph explaining your interpretation of the music and lyrics. Explain how you used certain elements or principles of design to describe the selected piece of music.
What discoveries or techniques did you find helpful through the process?
Making the fire was definitely the most difficult technique to accomplish. I added texture to it by making it bumpy. If I dragged my hand across the fire on the painting, I would feel pointy bumps. This technique, you could say, made this art piece what it is.
What are two skills that you learned and what is one area that you feel you can work on to improve your skills?
One of the skills I learned was blending the primary colours together to create other colours. For this painting I made grey, black, orange, and bluish purple. The grey and black were definitely the most challenging . Another skill I learned is to use mat-median to paste a picture on my painting and to make it look like it blends in. I did this with cars I cut from a newspaper and put a fire on them so it looked like they were in the fire rather than on the fire. I would like to improve my brush stroke techniques and to know when I could use one to make my art piece look even better.
