OVERVIEW

STUDENT PAINTING OBJECTIVE:

Create a painting, which visually communicates who I am, through imagery that depicts (shows) my outer & inner selves:

An “inside” self-portrait capturing my internal aspects, (culture, personality traits, likes/dislikes, feelings, hopes, dreams) through the addition of imagery (realistic, symbolic), and, ABSTRACT representation (i.e. feeling/emotions communicated through LINE & COLOR).
