Beautiful Oops

My Statement about this image:

I’m calling this project, Decoration. As it reminds me of the time I blew up spray paint cans at my friends house. The subject is a Narrative based off a True Story. I chose to create this specific work because I Was inspired by the events that occurred that day. For materials, I used a graphite pencil. I used a variety of techniques and methods including: drawing and inking. While creating this work, I paid close attention to my curves by using an eraser to smooth them. I wanted my artwork to look weird and I did that by making my mushroom cloud very dark. To add interest to my composition, I used dark lines by pressing down on the paper with a 4B pencil. I like the way my cloud came out and I am proud of the ink blotches. However, I struggled with my overall drawing. If I created another work like this I may add color. My work shows that I learned how to turn some boring mistake into a beautiful creation.
