This is my finished prismacolor piece. The reflective part of my piece is the pearls, and I tried to show this by reflecting my skin tones into the individual pearls. The pearls I modeled with are my dad's mother's pearls, and she gave them to my mom when she got married. In this way, my piece reflects the beginnings of my family. On the other side of the spectrum, the background is a tapestry that I bought in Venice Beach, California in December of 2018. I chose this background because it represents my individuality in my family, and how even though I am a part of this great web of people, there is a part of me that is my own.
I am not a big prismacolor fan at all, and in the future I don't see myself using this medium out of choice. I have much to improve upon skill-wise, and it kinda shows. I do enjoy the vibrancy of the piece, and how the cools of the tapestry complement the warms of my skin and my shirt. As an artist, color is not my strong suit but I do find these color choices to be very pleasing.
