Organ and Tissue Donation

2/26/19

The subject of my creation is a type of ad for people to consider organ and tissue donation. I thought it would be cool to have reds in the background because tissue and organs tend to look or be red, so that's what I did. I added a heart as the organ, and the question "Are You an Organ Donor?" Then at the bottom I said to check yes for organ and tissue donation. I mostly only used graphite, sharpie, and colored pencil. I chose to do this type because I really like the look of simple, but good art, which I thought I could achieve here, but it turns out that I did not achieve that.

I used the rule of thirds technique because I pretty much sectioned out where the heart was going to go and the words to make sure all of it was as even as possible. I changed a lot of the placement, I changed the phrases, I changed a lot when it came to this project.

Mrs. Medsker has been giving us criteria and projects that we are going to later put into a competition, and she is actually sending our tissue and organ donation projects to Maine Med, so that was pretty much the story, I wanted to make it look simple but good, didn't quite happen for it. I really would love to be an organ donor, just to know that if I were to die, my body wouldn't just go to waste, I would be helping someone in need, and that's really cool to me. If I could change anything I would probably try to be a lot more creative, and try harder with my background. Overall, I think that it would still look good around Maine Med.
