Final Project

With nine 6x6 canvases, I am going to try to portray how I have transformed from a timid, frazzled and less flexible student, yogi and thinker, into a inspired, light, and more flexible one. I am using paper to show my favorite pose I have learned this term (warrior 2). Around the pose I am using colors, shaded tones and matalics to illustrate how I began this corse and how I am ending it. I am using darker colors at the bottom and shading to lighter tones at the top of the piece. To express the closing of my thoughts and how I have learned to control my mind and body, I am placing buttons in significant spots on the piece. I am not sure exactly where I want to place them, but at some point, I hope I will see a place where they fit perfectly. I'm focusing on purple, my absolute favorite color, to express tranquility. I painted the "dark" sides of the painting in purple too to express how even in my darkest sights, I can still find a place of inspiration. I want this painting to explain how I have changed, and as I know that I may be the only one who really understands the significance of the colors, buttons, and movements, I want to portray inspiration to others, while still being content with my own.
