#1 Art critique

This is Semaj's artwork and its name is "The scream face". My impression when I first saw this picture is the Nike shirt and then the basket because I like playing basketball and wear Nike clothes also. The thing that also leads my eyes around from place to place is the sky and the birds. This artwork excited me, makes me want to play basketball immediately. I will rename this artwork into "Your face when you just saw a crossover". The colors in this artwork are used perfectly, the background is painted with blue so it's a good weather to play basketball. I think Semaj recreated this artwork because it's funny, relates to our daily life when we scream at something that excited us. Finally, I think this artwork is creative and meaningful.

Color Project

"The Scream" is one of the most famous art pieces in the world, and almost everybody knows about it. This artwork was created by a Norwegian artist, Edvard Munch. I choose to recreate this artwork because I think it's funny and relates to my student life. This artwork shows my student life when I have bad grades. The original name of this artwork is "The Scream", but I renamed it into "The F Scream". I also changed the colors of the artwork from dark to bright colors. I want bright colors because it looks young and happy, just like student life. Even though the person in this artwork is screaming, the bright colors still shows us something funny. I used primary and secondary colors in my artwork. For doing this artwork, I changed a lot, not only the colors, but also changed the background with an F grade. I painted it with water color and some oil pastels. At first, I used black paint to draw a screaming person and the F paper. Then I colored the background and the person with water color because it's easy to paint. Finally, I added some accessories on the person such as golden watch, bracelet, etc. I worked really hard on the project, making sure every detail was the way I envisioned it. I did it the way that I did because that made the most sense to me, and it felt like that way had the most impact.
