Free Art portfolio

Hello All-  

You may already be aware of this portfolio review opportunity on December 11th at the Concord Center for Visual Arts from Claire Lieu ( RISD ), but I thought I'd pass it along:

Also, here's a resource for students grades 9-12 to upload their work and get it critiqued.

Hope your years are going well. Good luck with Scholastics.

Ryan's Senior Mural Idea 2017

This is my idea for the mural background. The image itself isn't what I think the mural should look like, but I think it has some really good features we could incorporate into the piece. If the sun were placed the the middle of the horizon, as such, it might hit the birds in really interesting ways - such as framing them in light, sorta like halos around their bodies - and overall add to the beauty of the mural. I definitely like having the dark mountains in the mid-ground, although having the grass as colorful as at is above might add too many colors such that it would distract from the painting's main idea: the birds. It would be interesting to play with the shades of the grass, although I don't think it should vary a lot in terms of the colors used, if we do decide to incorporate it.
