The idea for my final
artwork derived mostly from my love of video games. The ones that I have loved
since childhood tend to influence my artistic prospects the most. The initial
idea of my artwork was to alter a circular road sign and tweak it so that it is
more reminiscent of a Pokeball, that comes from the popular Pokémon franchise
of games, trading cards, and TV shows. Although the original colors of the
Pokeball were intended to be retained, they were changed in order to more
closely resemble the default road sign. At the end, this caused me to realize
that I had not planned out the artwork as well as I had thought I did, due to
having used a “Do Not Enter” sign as my base.
As a result of my poor
planning, observers may get the wrong the wrong idea of the message my artwork
may be conveying, even though I honestly did not have a real idea to begin
with. Because of this poor planning, I feel as though my artwork was
unsuccessful. Despite this, however, I would be very willing to display my
artwork inside a toy or gaming store, in order to appeal to the other gamers of
the community.
My process involved
really expressing something that is near and dear to me, through art. This
project made me more willing to accept the shortcomings of my artwork. My art
was not as successful as I would have wanted it to be, and due to time
constraints, I was unable to improve upon my concept. Messing up this way
taught me to plan my ideas a little more carefully so that my artwork can be
more successful.
