Art Gallery by Ellie C., Grade 9
Tiger of the Clouds WatercolorTiger of the Clouds was inspired by a digital art drawing on Pinterest – what immediately captured my attention and inspired me to recreate it in watercolor was the magical feeling of the piece, which I felt would be best rendered in watercolor. As a viewer, my goal would be to get them thinking – what relationship do the tiger and the fish have, and why are they in the sky?
Microplanet on Adobe PhotoshopThis microplanet was inspired by many of my passions: snorkeling, stingrays, and Disneyland, all of which are incorporated into the piece (as well as a ring pun). I chose to make the coral reef filtered into a different color palette in order to make the viewer look twice to understand what exactly is going on – and therefore drawing them into the different aspects of the planet.
Bubble DolphinsI was inspired to make this piece when I was blowing bubbles one afternoon – I had always loved how dolphins leaped gracefully out of the water, and when I was prompted to make a bubble creation on Adobe Photoshop, I knew exactly what to do. My goal is for the viewer to enjoy the playful nature of the bubble dolphins as they jump joyfully around the bubbles.
Totoro in the Rain Adobe Illustrator and PhotoshopWhen watching My Neighbor Totoro, I always loved the scene in the rain when Totoro appeared . . . so when I was given the prompt to use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to make a poster featuring an object I owned, I chose my beloved Totoro alarm clock to insert into that scene. I made sure to make the alarm clock unrealistically larger than possible, highlighting the quote from the movie above.
