Bella Burken “pink”

18x24, acrylic, 2018

My painting style is landscape and it is realism. This painting means a lot to me because the pink flowers are like the ones we had at my great grandma’s funeral, because those were her favorite. The beach in the background reminds me of the theme of her house because she loved going to the beach and she always wanted to love by one. If I started over I would change the shape of the top flower and make sure right from the beginning I would have made sure to blend out better. One thing that I really love about this painting is the way the background turned out. The was the water blended and the sky.

Bella Burken “Ellie”

18x24, acrylic, 2018

The style of my painting of landscape and animal together. This painting means a lot to me because elephants are my favorite animal, and seeing an elephant in the wild has been on my bucket list forever. If I could start over and change something I would change my sun and make it more fanned out and not so much of a harsh circle. One thing that I really love about my painting is the shading of the elephant and the shading of the sky. I spent a lot of time on this painting and I really like it.

Bella Burken “happiness”

9X12, Acrylic, 2018

MY painting is a portrait of Skyler and I . It is supposed to look real but also a little bit of characterize involved. This is supposed to symbolize that we are both happy together. If I had the choice to start over I would make his eye brows and hair lighter. I would also change the way that the outside of my eye looks because my eyelids are very large in the painting. Another thing I would change would be, I would lighten up my skin tone just a little bit. Something that I really love about this painting is the details in my eyes and then small details of each of our skin.
