Kyle Birks “Split”
8.5 inches long x 5 inches wide x 3 inches tall. Plaster, Acrylic Paint, Wire2018
My idea was to have a two-faced mask so I painted one side happy and the other side sad. After a few weeks, I decided to add a horn to the happy side. You should know that this was my original idea I knew what I wanted to make right away. One thing I would change is the height of the eyes I think they are a little too high. I love the way I painted the mouth I think it looks good.

I just looked up a duck on the internet and I found this duckling. I tried to make a duckling and it turned out pretty good. I would change the beak because it looks mangled. I love the body of the duckling because it looks good.

My idea was to make a weird looking mask, this was my first idea.
I flattened out the moist clay then curved some patterns into it and made lines and shaped it. I would change the mouth because it is tilted a little bit. I don’t really love anything about it and I don’t really like anything about it accept the turquoise on the mouth and the feeling of the mask.

At first, I wanted to draw a modern home but then I decided to draw an older home. What do you want your audience to think about when they look at this artwork? I want them to know that it is a castle like home. I would change one of the pillars because it is smaller than the other one. One thing I love about my artwork is the shading in the corners.
