The Work of Art Proposal


My work of art proposal idea would be a project about myself and my hobby - painting. A few years ago, I discovered that I like to draw and paint. I am not an expert in painting and I have not done much painting in the past year because of lack of time but when I do have a chance to paint, I really enjoy it. To me personally, painting is a special time to relax. I have to be inspired to paint. It cannot be a scheduled time. I cannot have any distraction around me when I paint and most importantly, my house must be organized.

To me, the compelling experience is an experience of painting itself. To me painting is spontaneous and inspirational experience. 

Some of the forms in painting I will explore in painting are patterns, shades, shapes, patterns, texture, color, type of paint, and contrast. I become inspired by the work of other artists and try to get some ideas from other artists’ techniques to create a compelling artwork for myself or for my family. 

I plan to set a time and make a painting of a tree. I really like nature and I am a person of nature. I like camping, hiking and spending time outside. I have been inspired by all the bare trees in my backyard so I have been motivated to make a painting. I plan to take a day off from work for this particular project because I know that I will not be able to concentrate on this project with my toddler running around. I plan to explore different ways to paint the tree and will explain what experiences were involved when painting. 

Sometime when I paint, I do not have an image in my mind, I paint how I feel at that moment. But sometime I like to plan and paint of something that I thought of and planned in my mind. I will also look closely on how colors create mood.

Some good questions to explore and ask an artist are:
How did you become interested in art?
Talk about something you are working on right now.
How would you describe your style? Why do you find it compelling? 
Are you creative more when you create something for yourself or for others?
