When looking for inspiration and references I went through multiple different concepts. I went from wanting to do some kind of horror piece, with gore or something of the like, however I had been feeling depressed and ended up watching The Hobbit movies- watching them made me feel happy again. I took the feelings that the movies gave me, and put it into art. Making the piece made me feel happy, I enjoyed the process and am excited to be done with it.
I feel that I had growth within my ability to match coulours and with mixing them. I feel that having chunks of colour for the background instead of a ‘straight’ black, having purples and blues mixed with reds and greens, creates a background that while not looking quite ‘put together’ looks and feels right. I worked on a lot of planning but in the end I still believe that my final piece on canvas was the best in the end.
