'Phases of the Night'

Artist Statement:

The idea behind this piece is scenes you see in nature. I chose to make this project about nature and the moon because my family loves to get outside and camp.

I made this by separating the sides, sketching in all the different lines and circles for each side, defining the lines. I finished painting in the lines. I materials I used was a pencil, thin tip markers and watercolor paint.

A process I used while making this project was testing the watercolor paint on a separate piece of paper to see how it looked. I think my project evolved by the texture that the trees and water enveloped while painting. I think that my next steps could be to add some different colors; I mainly used blue and gray to paint with.
