I'm not entirely sure what I'd like to communicate with this project, but I do know I want to go for a portrait/surrealism aspect with it.
Surrealism interests me because of the symbolism behind it, and portraiture interests me because I feel like there is a sort of vulnerability with it.

I think I'd like to use acrylics because it's a medium that I enjoy working with and I like to see the results that I get when I use it. With this project, I'd really like to explore how acrylics can be used to create a realistic and interesting work of art.

Description: a black girl who is colored in blue blowing a bright pink bubble, with yellow shades on and a simple black and white background
Why it interests me: I like the simplicity of it- the bright colors, which there are only 3 of, and the background being neutral colors

Description: a girl painting at a canvas, behind her is a window and a mirror with her reflection
Why it interests me: while it doesn't have many surrealism aspects, I still like how the mirror in the background gives you a sense of introspection

Description: a small black child holding a yellow flower, and behind them is the confederate flag
Why it interests me: it has a clear political and meaning about institutionalized racism

Description: a person holding flowers in front of their face
Why it interests me: I enjoy the contrasts of the harsh yellows/oranges and the light blue of the flowers, and like how the "focus" is supposed to be the face but it's obscured by the flowers
