Organ and Tissue Donation

In this project I had to make a picture supporting organ and tissue donation. I used the words "organ and tissue donation" and made a few of the letters into organs and tissues. In the background I used the typical donate life colors green and blue. The materials I used were colored pencils in the background and paint markers for the letters. One element I used was was color. I used different colors to make the organs stand out and to make the background more interesting to look at.

On composition rule and technique I used was sharp focus. I used sharp focus by making the picture detailed and the lines sharp and defined. I also used the composition rule and technique of formal balance. I made the words and letters spaced out evenly to use this rule and technique. This project evolved a lot when I was working on it. At first I had just the outlined letter in colored pencil but then I decided to fill them in with colored pencil and then I decided to fill them in with colored paint marker. Also I didn't have a background at first but then I added one to make the picture more interesting.

The message behind this piece is that organ and tissue donation is a good ting and it helps to save many lives. I think that if there was one thing that I could improve it would be to make the background darker or the organs darker and more bold. I think the most challenging part of this piece was making effective use of the background without taking away from the words in the foreground. The part I'm the most proud of is the creative way I conveyed the message. This shows my strengths and weaknesses as a learner because I was able to learn to improve this piece over time using the feedback of others.
