For my final major project I stuck with the context of myself. So all throughout my visual notebook I have only done myself and my emotions, by using art as my therapy and self exploration.
In this portrait, I stuck with my expressionism painting and left out so,e facial features such as the eyes to create a more dramatic look. I was going for a look based of my emotions. How I feel dark all the time, and nothing much is going on with myself.
On the other hand I think the paint quality is good on this piece. It isnt to thick and you can see the features quite clearly from the use of the darker paint to create tone.
This is a small quick painting I done to get out my feelings. As my whole FMP was based on my emotions, I thought it would've been a good idea to let out how I really feel. As in this painting I only used red because to me, red has several meaning behind it. It can mean danger and love. And I also added in black as well to highlight the darkness that I am feeling. The context behind this painting is that I am not feeling too well. I feel dark and in danger. I feel like I am putting myself in danger.
This here is practice to help my upcoming final piece. I changed my style from using dark colour paints to bright coloured paints such as pink, red, purple etc.
I done this because I think it defiantly stood out from the other paintings I done in my visual notebook because of its bright colours. So I started using them colours as a background first, to see if it fits in with my painting.
I took some photography of myself to help develop my research further into the self exploration context. So I think I achieved that by doing the photographs of me looking into the mirror, also the phrase "is she pretty on the inside?". I based my FMP on the phrase. It is part of my context to explore who I am on the inside.
