sometimes I doubt your commitment to sparkle motion


One of my favourite pieces from this semester (aside from my work made for this class) would have to be my donnie darko painting for my colour and context class. We were to take an image (movie stills were a suggestion) and paint it using a range of shades from a colour scheme of our choice. I chose to use the complimentary colour scheme of orange and blue and a scene from the last half of Donnie Darko.

After having trouble with coming up with an idea, changing my colour scheme at the last minute and going through illustration board drama...I am actually really happy with the way this painting turned out.

Sadly, all I have at the moment is this crappy phone picture of it since as far as I know it's still on display in the school somewhere.

and as far as the blog goes I thought it was a great thing to have for this class. Seeing how everyone approached the same theme in many different ways was extremely helpful and interesting. I also had the chance to see some great work (and be introduced to some great music haha) I wish we had all posted in here more frequently however personally I found I often didn't have the time to post here besides for the weekly post (admittedly, often at the last minute)
..thankfully I've been getting my time management together.
overall its been great, thank you all :)
