Sustained Investigation#2

I’m calling this project, 10 years later because it my interpretation of what the world will look like in 10 years. I chose to create this specific work because I was inspired by one of the bell ringers to have bring awareness to global warming and environmental issues which is what I was doing in this. When I was creating this I had a thought-provoking idea in mind.

For materials, I used watercolor and marker. I used the watercolor to make the whole thing and marker for the factory. I used a variety of techniques and methods including: shading and blending. While creating this work, I paid close attention to making sure that the pollution faded into the water. I wanted my artwork to show what the world will look like if we continue polluting it.

I like the way the water looks. However, I struggled with making subjects in the foreground or something to make the foreground stand out. I decided not to put anything because it gave emphasis to the fact that we will have nothing if we don’t help to reverse the effects of climate change. If I created another work like this I may do a different angle to get more subjects in the foreground. My work shows that I learned how to make a piece of work from that brings attention to an important topic.
