Cry Me An Ocean

I came across this picture while "Pinteresting" and it immediately caught my eye. The contrast between color and blank space really makes this piece special. In my opinion the picture represents just how deep her sorrow is (hence the whale). The fact that it looks hand drawn but also some what Photoshoped is really appealing. But the main reason I like this piece is because anyone can stare at it long enough and connect with it, because I'm sure everyone has cried hard enough and for so long that you feel like you've cried an ocean.

  1. This is a great picture, and your right really relatable. I like how the teal looks like water colour. I also like how they added color to only certain parts and not everything.

  2. I LOVE THIS. This art style is to die for. I love the way that the artist used a touch of water color on her nose and cheeks. I'd like to think that they did this because when someone cries, the nose and cheeks become flushed. The lack of neat lines also helps pull the picture together!

  3. This artwork is very interesting. I really like how there is a define line of color, but the addition of the tear steam for the eye "crosses the line".

  4. I really love this piece, it's very interesting how the girl is sketched out, but the water and whale are in color. The blend of the greens and blues together form a great display of the ocean/tears.

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

IMPRESSED BUT YOU CAN DO MORE Apple......

FOR THE UNINFORMED: Mrs. Shields may kill me for how long this post to the blog is, but she can deal with it :P Alright... I just want to state that I love Apple to death and get that out of the way but I AM GOING TO RANT for a little. Apple introduced the new "iPad Air" to the world today, among other things. The starting price for a 16GB silver OR black iPad Air is $499, and if you want 8x the storage with the 128GB version, it'll set you back $799. To put that into perspective, if you were to buy a 2.3GHz Mac Mini that has a quad core Intel Core i7 (the fastest processor Intel makes, starting at the i3, i5, and then the i7), 4GB of DDR3 ram, and a 1TB hard drive, it'll set you back $799. So you can buy a pretty very good Mac computer (I have one at home but better haha) or a new iPad. Anyways....  The iPad Air weights only A pound (yes one pound), is only 7.5 millimeters thick (Apple advertises that by saying 7.5 millimeters THIN), has a 9.7...

Bye For Now DMA

      Well since I'm a senior, then this is probably going to be my last blog post. Next year, I am going to do the Digital Design program at the Warren County Career Center for college credit, so I'm still going to do some DMA stuff after graduation. It's been very cool to be making cool stuff here and I'll miss you guys and I know your going to miss me and my dog Max.
