Self - Portrait



As clueless as I was for our first day of class in Principle of Design ( POD), I was clearly hoping I was ready for class because I did not know what to fully expect. 

After Ms Maslisa came in and gave her introduction, we were immediately given a task to work on. We were given a period of time to go out of class and look for whatever we could and come up with an art piece that describes US. We were allowed to use any sort of elements we could find for our task ( ex : leaves, colors, brunches, paper .. etc) 

As soon as we were given the task, i felt a little worried about it. I find it hard describing and expressing how i feel most of the time, so it was a little struggle for me. But after relaxing and getting inspired by several art work online, I let myself loose a little and went with the flow of my pencil. 

I did not add in any sort of colors or other elements in my work though, because I wasn't aware at first that we were allowed too and everyone else were doing their work mostly in black and white. ( this happens especially during the first day of class, .... just following what others are doing, just to be on the "safe side" haha)  

and.... my end product is.....

This shows my face in the middle ( a fail one, haha) , butterfly to represent freedom and the love of colors, rocket with weird alien like cartoon represents randomness, and clouds below represents my over-obsession of how beautiful clouds are all the time, and the tree being upside- down tells that I dont do things as it is all the time because I find it hard sometimes to follow rules/ instructions all the time, i mean, who likes being controlled. and also i tend to see things a little different at times and not everything must be in its position just because it is first shown that way. :) 

 stay tune, xx
