Neon Lights

I painted this picture with neon colors and a black ight colors that will really shine under the black lights. I also used chromatics so that i could get a dull and unshinny color to make you focus on the jelly fish and other parts of my painting.

First Artist Statement

After not drawing all summer long I am very excited to get back into my groove. I love to sketch and use line techniques in my drawings. I enjoy shading so that you can see where the direction of light is coming from. Sometimes when I shade I imagine that I am showing the dark side of things and the lighter happier version is on the other side. I don't really like painting because I feel as if I can never get the colors the way that I like them. I see an imagine in my head and I can draw it but when it comes to painting I just suck so I am really hoping to get that taken care of this year.

Last Artist statement

My inspiration and knowlegde of art has grown this year. Even though some people can't really see it I notice it and that's all I need. I love using water colors and just painting in general because I feel as if the easy brush strokes help to see your true feelings. I used to love sketching or drawing pictures more because I didn't like mixing colors. I wasn't sure how to get the color I wanted  but now I know how to mix them properly and I can get those colors. The best part of being an artist is that you have the complelte freedom to do what ever you want in your paintings. That kind of freedom lets me express how i truely feel and the person I am. Art to me is an escape to the real world and I love it.
