About Me

In this blog there will be pictures from my artwork that I have completed through my senior year of AP art. I enjoy drawing pictures of landscapes and nature. My concentration theme is the Appalachian Trail which I have actually hiked much of.

This piece of art is again done in watercolor. I decided to go smaller than usual to make the details highlight more to the viewer. This painting is a picture of a spring going through the smokey mountains. It is one of many that hikers will pass by while hiking the AT. The shading for the rocks was made with a variety of colors such as dark blues, greens, brown, and oranges.

In this piece of art I did a man in watercolor hiking in a part of East Tennessee called Roan Mountain. I chose this piece of art because it makes the viewer want to know where the man is going and for how long. The size of art is larger than what I normally do. The man is detailed in watercolor pencil that helps bring the color value out in the painting.
