Candy Still Life

The subject of my creation was the candy itself because the that was the main focal point of the piece. The art was made with colored pencil that I later blended to make the art look like a more solid color and not a bunch of hatch marks. I chose to create this specific work because I thought that it had a good mix of colors and different things and that it wasn't just some smarties rapper that everyone else did.

I used informal balance because I activated all four edges. My project evolved from a pencil sketch into a colored version of those candies.

The meaning of the artwork was to show the definition of the shadowing of the candy. My project relates to my life because every halloween I usually end up eating one piece of candy. I think that my art work could be stronger if I had a better blend and shadowing on the starburst.
