The third week of class was pretty nice. We did peer critiques, which were really helpful for people who got them, since one of the main ways an artist could improve in their craft is to get feedback from other people. A lot of times, we artists are our worst enemies. Some have egos about their artwork and don't notice obvious mistakes. Others may have self-appreciation for their art that's so low that they tend to criticize every little thing that they do, leading to constraints in their creative endeavors, which is why receiving feedback and critiques is incredibly important. In general, discussing what speaks about an art piece and what we feel could be improved on was a bit of fun for me. I don't often speak in this way, using art terminology with a lot of people. Although sadly, we ran out of time, so I wasn't able to show my artwork and get feedback for it, which was a shame. Hopefully, next time I'll be able to do that.
This wasn't the first time I've participated in a peer art critique, but I'm still new to it since I haven't done it that often. I didn't really feel anything when I shared my work, because I wasn't able to :(. One element of art that was discussed and was personally brought up by me was the choice of colors. There was one piece that had a lot of cool colors, so I said that it gave it a calmer vibe.
This is a placeholder sketch for the main subject of my next art project for this class, which is an album cover. I wanted to design and draw a character that screams futuristic warrior.
