Although I didn’t participate in the main objective of this project, I still attempted to simulate the exercise best I could. I decided to pick the image that I got the least inspiration from, which left it up to my own creativity to make the piece successful. I experimented with different mediums and subjects really at my whim, which was a really fun way to let my imagination and creativity run wild to an extent.
Speaking from last year, it was a really fun process to respond and react to what others were doing. It helped me come up with unique ideas, color palettes, and general subject matter which made an interesting piece.
It was a really helpful project for me to get back into a creative mindset, reminding myself of experimentation, moving with the piece rather than staying to one concrete path, and just generally having fun with an art project.
