Assignment #8 - Pop-art

Artist Reflection:

           In this assignment we chose images to make pop-art. I think the strongest technical part of my work is the attention to different skin tones and colors. For example my pop-art of Eazy E (left) I think I made the lips look very realistic. On my picture of Biggie Smalls (right) I think I put a lot of detail into the sweater he is wearing. One thing that I could improve on is on Biggie Smalls making his face more visible, I think it is hard to see the detail on his face.

          I think one easy thing about this project was the coloring. I thought this was fun and enjoyable to color in all of the white parts in the picture. Along with being fun, this part of the project also was very easy and that might be why it was so fun. One thing I found difficult about this project was  making the image black and white and having all the features still visible. On my picture of Biggie I think the face is a little too dark and you cannot see all of the detail.

          The objective of this project was to make an individual pop art and then make a pop art with the image on a four image grid with the hue changed on each one. I think I demonstrated this objective very well throughout my work. I think I really did this with the picture of  Biggie, that picture is put into the four image grid. If I could do this again and change something I think I would probably make an NBA player instead of a rapper.
