In the reflection, the things I like is the way I been suing my own idea to create my own artwork.The things I need to improve is, during the class, I spend too much time on one work, so, I should try to avoid this kind of situations.

Coco's media test 1: Scream, Wood cut &Print 

# data[].attributes.body
Date: April 13th
Materials: Wooden board, knife use for cut off, paint, roller, and that's all.
Reflection: When I was doing this artwork,  I was tried to remained the feature of its own, and I think I did that. What  I was remained is the strong feeling of the repression, and the variables complex lines. For the reason is, I want to make it looks more despair and helpless, or a strong sense of yearning for the happiness.
But next time I should be careful when I rolled it, there shouldn't be too much ink otherwise it won't looks nice. After doing this I realize that I should carve it deeper to avoid the unsatisfactory result.

material:  paper, different colors of oil pastel, that's all.
reflection: I noticed that the artwork "The Scream" is trying to emphasize the emotion of depressed. But I changed my colors into a colorful way, and I mixed them together to make them looks messy but illusory. Because I want to show the other side of people's emotion, besides depressed, our world can be brilliant and worthiness.

Material: Newspaper, cardboard，scissors，Pigment， magazine，paint.
Reflection: What I know is, for this artwork, my aim is to reveal the dark aspect of the society. And I was tried to let the viewer understand the ironic and constrain inside of our world. I tried to empathize this scene by using the colors of combinations. Such as black and white, golden yellow with dark grey, those kind of colors are strong against each others which creates the beauty of messy， it is also a impact sensitivity.
But next time I should do it more fast, and tried to finished it before the deadline.

Date：April 13th
materials: Cardboard，chalk，A4 paper, printer for my tiny picture, scissors for cut my picture, and that's all.
reflection：In this artwork, you can see the things I want to express through the colors. There are full of darkness, sometimes a few white lines are cross through the sky. The result that what I was contented is, the effect of the picture are not too weak, which can let us know a sensitive of hopelessness. The things I could improve is the drawing of the lines, I should draw it more hard and make sure it can be more clear, concisely, and meaningful.

It shows the symbolism of capture, constrain，and Anti-freedom. The spider web is trying to constrain me and restrict me.

# data[].attributes.body
Confinement, restraint, and repression. Like being in a jail.

It sticked me on the web just like somethings in the our life may control us and dominate us.

The railing represent the cage, its use for prevent your escape, but sometimes we need to figure out the way to overcome the puzzles by ourselves.

The roses represent love, romance, the colors is pink so it can also be illusion, dreamy, and dynamic.It is free form the outside, growing in the wild-forest, get wet by the rained. it also represent the freedom.

This is my mind map, my symbolisim topic is freedom. In this picture you can see the dandelion, birds, ocean tides, clouds flowing in the sky, and the seagrass and fish swaying in the water.

# data[].attributes.body
Materials：Water, watercolors, brush，papers.
Process: At the beginning of doing this work, I was quite confused about what should I draw to related my topic freedom. They I decided to draw two sides of things to shows the conflict freedom and non-freedom, which intended to emphasis the importance of freedom.
Explain:This picture shows that the pressure is right under the freedom. Tidal and clouds represent the freedom, however the spider web and insects on it represents pressure. These symbols  are strongly against each others which showed us this scenery.
Reflection: I should consider my ideas directly，and speeds up when I was doing my work; because I cannot keep fall behind while doing these works.

I changed the shape and material of the vase. The vase become delicate and easy to break, which means the leaves and flowers above the vase had become the burden of the vase. The original one demonstrates a serene scenery. This can represent the degree of the burden of this vase. I changed the scenery and weather in my work(Dazzling sunlight, withered trees, blazing environment.) because I want to show the different degree of pressure. The symbolism means the pressure you feel depends on what scenery you see or thought, and once you think it is bad, the vase become delicate, which means your tolerance limits become weak.

In this artwork, I changed these two apples into two beach ball. And I also added one sunshade, and a carpet. So the reason for why was the apples are replaced by beach ball is, the ball is acting the role of playthings, and the leaves above the ball means our earth environment. The symbolism meaning is, sometimes humans are use and against nature for anything for fun, and they never consider the consequences. If we keep doing that, all the apple will disappear into beach ball, and we are never going to see this shimmering ocean with the pure, blue sky.

In this picture, I changed the sword behind the rose instead of a flower umbrella. The rose is represent the love and wedding, and the umbrella represent the protection of love, and the happiness after wedding. The original one means sometimes the life after wedding will be merciless, but I changed it into happiness, that's what I think marriage should be.

In this artwork, I only changed the fire that lit up in he original one into  dust and residual ash. And then you may find the scenery of the oil panting on the easel changed too.  The scenery on the oil panting in the original one looks bright and have light because of the fire. But in my work, the scenery of the oil panting is dark and gloomy, because the fire is turned into dust.
The symbolism meaning of these are, the result could have major different if you changed only tiny bit of things.

There are several symbolism I choose from the realistic world, but after a

My idea of this work is come from this artwork ,”The birth of Venus " . When I saw the pink flowers, roses , and shell in this artwork, I was determined to have a topic that relevant with love. These can all represent the sense of romantic, which are some good appropriate symbolism of love.

This is the painting that shows on the small canvas board. I get this idea from the artwork, ”The birth of Venus " it was created by Sandro Botticelli in 1487. I used the similar open sell to represent a sense of "liberate" in love. And it come out with a bunch of balloons which shows if we give too much freedom to our love, they might fly away easily just like these balloons.

The materials I used in this work is small canvas and water colors, plus a little chalk pastel.

The process of making this are really fast and rush because it is the first time for me to draw this painting so I decided those ideas really quick which is rushed. And sometimes I was still thinking it is better to continue using this idea or not, so the impulse make me hard to decide.

reflection: While doing this painting, I should manage the time fulfilling  and decided each decisions deliberately.

This is the painting that shows on the large canvas board.  In this artwork, you can see there are a pair of swans who are floating above the sea. They're accompany, rely with each other, so the balloons surrounded them are been together and never separate with each other. Because of the persistence and patient, this love will never end. Love is not restrict, but reunite and stay together.

The materials I used in this work is big canvas and water colors.

The process of this bigger painting is that I did draw the pencil draft far more quicker than the first time I did on the small canvas. It is faster because it is the second time based on these idea that I already knows. But I haven't finish yet since the big canvas require more time for doing the color on it.

Reflection: This time I will spend more efforts on my color using and also try to displaying some painting techniques. Because the color is one of the most important things for a complete artwork, it definitely do need perfect color matching.
