Check out the video on AB's bio page (about his STOLEN series). List one material/medium, tool and one process or system that Adrian is using to make this series? Notice I did not ask about subject yet.

WRITE YOUR RESPONSE IN THE FORM OF AN EQUATION, i.e., tea + tarot+ illustration= a series of blended tea labels that speak to the history of indigenous Arawak Taino Earth Divination (that combo is mine ;))

brainstorming, thinking, and visualizing. then you put it into action by planning, sketching, and then actual art making

The creative process includes sketching and thinking of ideas, practicing, creating, revising, editing (based on critique). Sometimes the whole process repeats itself in order to create the best final product

I define creativity as the ability to diverge from the norm, the ordinary, and structure. Creativity stems from one's own self, whether it be from their own emotions, experiences, and identity.

I am interested in further exploring the female body and anatomy and how different objects and natural elements can represent feminitity.

I think creativity is about being original by creating new things or reusing existing materials in new ways. The creative process is more so the steps to create work, and you should practice creativity in the creative process but they are two different things.

This summer I got more into design rather than illustration//traditional painting. I started working on combining oil painting with 3D construction and I'm currently working on a piece that is more architectural where I'm using wood. I want to create more art that is design-based using architectural elements and//or graphic design elements.

I can't access the video, but I saw the pieces from the Stolen Series:

Materials: graphite and ink or watercolor(?)

Process: his process includes a relationship with time that is connected to the pieces themselves and their significance. I think it's interesting how he connected the meaning to his process and something that is not as explicitly related to art (time).

He is using graphite/ink on paper

He's connecting the pieces to history and the identities of these victims through his process (time) and the subject matter (portraits).

He is using color and the concept of time to symbolize life that was robbed of many African Americans. The use of color, negative space and lack of color illustrate both death, life, and identity
