Video Inspiration

This week, I looked up examples and techniques on Youtube for my topic. I find Youtube to be very useful because, sometimes, only reading about a topic can get quite overwhelming and confusing, especially when it’s all in “art language”. This can be confusing for a non-experienced artist like myself. Youtube shows the actual process and most of the videos I watched were helpful towards my topic. I like Youtube because it’s very visual, which I find helpful when I am studying techniques and examples. I found this video to be very interesting watch here. Even though my final project is not going to be as big (physically), I thought the techniques used in the video were helpful to my understanding of my topic. I particularly liked the shading that was done, making the colors and shapes look a little more 3-D. Here's another video that I found to be helpful. I really liked the colors in the painting and I think my final product will be something like this. I really liked how the colors faded into each other. I thought the colors used were very complementary and overall, the final product was nice.
