6. PAST, PRESENT, FUTURE
Observations include pictures and artworks that you are able to justify to fall under the theme. Hence, I painted broken bottles, the ageing of a single rose, angled skulls, etc.
Artist research essentially builds a base for your final piece, as it is a source of inspiration. After completing this work, I was determined to do my final piece in this multi-media style
Since I was keen on painting animals for my final piece, I decided to explore several different medias such as acrylic paint, pencil, pen and watercolours, through painting different animals
This piece was done under exam conditions in a span of 10 hours. I used several different medias: Acrylic, watercolours, dead leaves, cotton, table mats, and several other things found in your home
