The task was to draw images of you between infancy, adolescent to young adult. I chose the age when I was 5 to 14 to 18.I chose those ages because they are the most memorable to what I used to look like. The materials I used to make it was acrylic paints and oil pastels. I used a massive piece of paper that I stapled on the wall. Everything on this paper was supposed to represent who I am and my history.

I began by drawing it out with pastels but the main topic was to focus completely on filling in the white gaps and color.

Family is a big part of my life so using oil pastels I drew my family that I copied from one of my family albums. I remember that image when me and my family went on a walk. I am one out of seven there’s my parents, the oldest brother john who is know 25, my older sister Juliette who is 22, my other brother Sam who is 20, my twin sister Bethany and then me I’m the youngest and we are both 18. My older sister wasn’t actually in this photo so I just added her in.

This one was a happy memory when I was really little me and my family were on a cruse to the Caribbean and that’s the day we all explored the caves.

I can’t remember who took the picture but this was based on a family photo in our utility when we were all really little.

This is my homework That I did on A1 piece of paper. Just a smaller version of my larger piece.

I am pretty proud of this A1 painting. This was based off a painting I did in my book. This one comes with text this time.

I’m really proud of the colors I chose in the background because they are the colors of my bed sheets so I really think these colors are a good representation of me. I really love the colored lines I put around the characters to make the it really come together. To be honest, I not usually a person who likes to plan but I feel with this piece I was really slow because I was mostly guessing so I feel if I’d made a plan I could have been a lot faster. I would have liked to put words and symbols in but I guess I ran out of time.

I think the hardest thing about this was the physical effort, you would be standing for most of the day, your arms would be tired from trying to lift them up to paint the top and the knowing how much had to be done in a day.
