For the Culminating project for my Art 2 class we were given three different rules to follow from our peers based on the previous work we had done.Each rule had to challenge you as an artist and break your norms. The first of my three rules given was it had to be a figure or person since the person assigning that rule knew that i did not enjoy/ don't enjoy drawing people. My second rule was that it couldn't be digitally done since many of my previous works i had to show were done using Adobe Illustrator. Last but not least my final rule was that was not allowed to have a reference image to base my work off of, i honestly don't know why this one was given to me rather than to just make my project a little harder. Although i wasn't allowed to use a reference for the actual duration of creating my artwork i used the classic Bigfoot pose as an inspiration to create my "figure". I believe that my overall final piece ended up somewhat what i wanted to, however i really wish i had either picked a smaller surface or had more time because it isn't as detailed as id like it to be. A large part of the feedback i received was that the pose felt a little off or disproportionate but i think that's to be expected of a no reference drawing especially for someone who doesn't regularly draw people, or in this case people-like figures. With the feedback i received i was able to incorporate some improvements adding a bit more texture to Bigfoot for my final piece which i believe improved my work greatly.
Over the course of this school year i have grown and changed as an artist, many of the projects challenged what i had established as my norms as an artist. By having my peers review my work and give me rules for the last art piece i created in this class it allowed me to continue growing. This final piece felt like a happy grey area for me as an artist where i could rely on my textured nature scenes i have become so comfortable creating and the new frontier presented by figure drawing and all the challenges that come with that.
