Donate life

For the Donate life project I drew a photo of a smiley face with a dotted background and the saying "give someone another smile with organ and tissue donation". To make it I took a background half blue with red dots and half red with blue dots. I then drew a Smiley face on top and added the saying "give someone another smile with organ and tissue donation". For tools I used blue, red, and black acrylic paint. I also used a black sharpie, crayola markers, and water.

To make this painting I started by sketching out my idea on a piece of paper. I then grabbed the paper I was gonna use and added a one inch border on all the sides. I then took a circle stencil to make the big smiley face. I then used a smaller circle to make the background. I then split the paper and half and did half of the background a blue shade and the other half a red shade. I then went over the circles with a pencil to see them. I then took red paint and made the circles in the blue background. I also took blue paint and made the circles in the red background. I then went over the smiley face circle and features with the black sharpie and black acrylic paint. I then took red, blue, pink, purple, green, and teal crayola watercolor markers and made patches inside the face, I then took water and made a tie dye look in the face. I then went over the face and features and wrote the saying with black sharpie.

Net time I would spend more time on the background. I ended up making the circles a blend of the two colors because I accidentally went over the circles in the blue and red color. I would also like to have make the tie dye face look more natural, mabe spread the colors out some more to make t look better.
