This is my imaginary being, its two tornadoes that are turning into the sun on the horizon.I used ink to do the background and scales on the road. I used paper to make the tornadoes and the side of thew road using the paper with patterns.

Imaginary Being Project

For the imaginary being project, I created a three-headed monster. He’s part cyclops, part angel in disguise, and part cartoon. I set the monster in front of rays of light resembling the iconic Virgin Mary look. That’s where grayscale and value come im. The further away from the creature the darker it is, for example, the corners are the darkest. The artwork is made completely out of magazine cutouts.  Almost the whole creature is made from all kinds of texture from clothing. Ranging from scarfs, plaid suits, trench coats, dresses, and even lingerie. It also has life in it like butterflies, a plant and an eyeball. I feel like that makes it contact to actually living things. I decided to add color only to eyes, noses, and mouths. The focal point is the whole creatures itself, just like a Virgin Mary picture.  I think I did a pretty good job not losing the creature into the background, that was my biggest concern. The details are the most important to me like the halo, the ocean in the sunglasses, or the shine on hair resembling a smile. The overall artwork has a good balance, one side is not overpowering the other.

Imaginary Being Project

My imaginary being consists a composition of lines and geometrical shapes to form a skeleton with an abstract background. The concept of the project is the skeleton is trying to escape the abstract scenery and is more curious of the outside of world. The focal point is more centered at the cartoon skeleton. My projects consists of a balance between white and black. I didn’t want a rhythm for the background of my being. The abutting shapes of my design consists of circles, rectangles and squares. There are also negative space where the hand is which is supposed to represent the outside world. More like a picture trying to come to life. Symmetry was also used to keep my being more focused and alive for the viewer to see. The being does consists of harmony but the abstract background doesn’t. I used shading to add some depth to my being.
