 The art I worked on hard for a week straight is called “The Eye”. I named my masterpiece that because it’s a painting of an eye all up close an personal. For my art I used acrylic paint.  My inspiration was from a great man a person who lived long ago a artist named M.C. Escher. I changed my painting just a tad from his and gave it my own touch. When a person saw my art on wanted them to say wow in their mind and feel warm inside. The time I spent working on my art was exciting and thrilling. If I had to I would do it all over again. The technique I used was first I sketched it in my sketch notebook then I choose the size paper then I got to work drawing and erasing then when I was done drawing I started to paint and paint till it was complete. I was trying to show a modern person and how they feel inside. My art to me is my best if I did it over I wouldn’t change one thing. I pretty much summed up my whole project into one page. I shared what I did with it and how I did it. I shared my feelings. I told you what it is, and what’s the message. I shared every thing with you.
