Senior Project Artist Statement
The purpose of my projects are about adding attention to detail, shape, and texture. For instance, the T-Rex. While I did not make the figure, I am repainting it to look more realistic and far more detailed than it's default self. I am applying better texture to wrinkles and scales, as well as even having applied a clear coat to the interior of the mouth to give it a glossy look. The finished T-Rex paint application will be one of many representations of my attention to detail. The gun, admittedly not an appropriate item but being beside the point, was repainted to give a real battle-worn gunmetal look, fitting for the character that wielded it. The purpose of the blaster is to represent my attention to texture. The overall purpose of these two pieces is absolutely not to take credit for the items themselves, but to take credit for my paint applications showing my skill. The Velociraptors are a small representation of attention to shape. Although they are incomplete, they clearly represent dinosaurs, which is my intent. They will be complete soon. The stylistic t-rex face on the bottom is the character Grimlock. This drawing shows that I am not inept when it comes to using a standard pencil. There are representations of shape, shade, texture, negative space in the back, and a small application of color.
