"Fortune"
Materials - Acrylic on canvas

For this project, we had to do a self-portrait. i wanted to showcase something that represents me so I did Tarot Cards. I read tarot cards a lot and am very superstitious so I had them sort of tattooed on my skin. I chose these specific cards because I get them the most.

"Medusa's Arc"
Materials - Acrylic on canvas

I really wanted to do Medusa for the project about growth. In her legend, Medusa, the priestess of Athena, is raped by Poseidon, and Medusa and her sisters are turned into gorgons with the power to turn people to stone with a glance. A lot of people think of this is a punishment, but the other interpretation is that Athena turned her into a gorgon so nobody would be able to do that to her again, she gives Medusa strength. I wanted to show her growth through her legend. So I painted her defeated after the rape and looking in a mirror seeing her future-self standing confidently. And I put an olive tree and a alter to Athena in the background.

"Hydrangea"
Materials - Black ink on sulphite paper

I like this one, it's simple. I wanted to do something minimalist, and I like generally how it turned out. I would try painting the background if I re-did it, to make it smoother. I'd also ingratiate the black more.

"Rose"
Materials - Watercolor on watercolor paper & white acrylic

I don't really have any affection for this piece. The colors are muddy blue, and I didn't really know how to execute this project so that's another factor. I did this to do the project, and that's all the depth of this one.
