Donate Life

1. The subject of my creation is two hearts one that is happy and another that is sad. The setting is outside in a field. The work was made by using paint and then using stencils to make the letters and hearts. I chose to create this because it shows the importance of this organization. In my work I showed color in the background and on the hearts to make the feelings of the hearts stand out. One principal of my design is balance which is shown by having equal weight on equal sides.

2. I used rule of thirds in my art by splitting my artwork up into thirds so each section flows and is filled with different things. My project evolved because I added things to show more details in my art. I had to revise my art by going over my painting with paint so you didn't see my brush strokes.

3. The meaning is I created something that shows donating organs is important and it gives people a new opportunity for life. Like the sad heart is failing and then someone gives them a happy, healthy heart. This relates to my life because now I want to donate my organs and I think it gives me a new understanding about this topic. I think my artwork could be stronger by making the background have more layers. I could also add more organs or tissues to my work to give a more powerful message.
