My artwork is titled "Rick the Chick". It is a drawing of a stuffed animal chick. It is drawn on black paper with chalk pastels. Before I made this artwork, I had to run some experiments and watch some videos since chalk pastel is new to me. I tested out the fluffy texture of the chick as well as the shading of the beak and feet. Then I threw it all together into what I thought was my rough draft until I realized the rough draft was exactly what I wanted to be my final artwork. My big idea was to show innocence contrasted by evil. I wanted an innocent little stuffed chick to contrast with a black seemingly empty void. I believed this goal was met but I think I could have done a little more to give the chick a little more placement; maybe a spotlight shadow or something similar. In creating this artwork, I learned how to make a fluffy texture with chalk pastel. I think the technique I used could be carried into other mediums.

AuthorI'm Hayden - a sophomore who accidentally signed up for an art class. I have been called a good artist by a few elementary teachers and was nominated for the "Pablo Picasso Award" at pep fest last year, so I think I am a certified "artist". I like skittles. Archives
