Life steps
Artist Statement:
- The main focus for the picture was the stripes. My idea for the picture was, personally, specific. I chose each color on each person for a specific reason. I chose yellow for the youngest, because it symbolizes energy, excitement, happiness, everything a small eight year old girl would have. I chose red for the older girl because red to me seems maybe stress, worry, problems, as a teenager people shift you from a child, to becoming a man/woman, being a teen can be stressful, that's why I chose red for the teen girl. I chose blue for the adult because for me it symbolizes calm, not many worries, the blue for the adult means it's already gone through the other phases, it's the next step into your life. This picture is like "as life goes on." It's a picture of life's steps. I had it to be selected color because I wanted the focus to shift to the color rather than the people.
