For my AP Drawing series, I am painting people by their name meaning in Hebrew. I chose this topic for my series because I have two names, the name on my birth certificate, and the Hebrew name my rabbi gave me at birth. Hebrew names carry personal meanings and definition, so I wanted to portray other people by what their name means in Hebrew. Each piece will be symbolic, revolving around their Hebrew translation. The series will also have a focus on the elements of movement, proportion, and balance, whether in the background or the character themself.

This piece translates to sun and noble, so I used acrylic paint and painted half of the girl in peaceful and calm colors, and the other half in bright yellow to symbolize the sun.
