Calvin Arsenia

Calvin Arsenia is a musical artist that flourishes when he plays his harp while he sings like an angel. He told us the reason why he loves roses is that they mean love to him, the roses that he has received in his life were given to people who love him dearly and he wanted to show that to everyone. When Calvin Arsenia played I envisioned different colored roses behind him to show how colorful his personality is and how he is beautiful in every aspect you could think of. He radiates passion and love and I wanted to show that in my piece. The medium of art I used was a mix of two mediums of art which are color pencil the go over that with the same color pen to make the color pop. I used line work, color, realism, texture, and shape.The master artist that was one of the inspirations for this piece is Jan Van Eyck, he focuses on realism and uses oil paints to create his masterful artworks. The other inspiration for my current artist would be Mo Zhan, she specializes in landscape, portrait, along with floral art, she uses oil painting as well. Her realistic floral art helped me understand the line work for flowers and where the lining and color along with shading goes. Some things that I would like to focus on to improve on realistic art would be blending to make the skin look realistic instead of patchy along with knowing what color pencils blend well together and what doesn't blend well cause I want to get better at blending dark colors so it can look as smooth as the other flowers.
