How is your artistic intention connected to the statement of inquiry?

Artistic intention is my personal aesthetic because it is what everybody have
different. I used different art elements to express my thoughts and ideas
which is the artistic intention of the artwork.

Global context: Personal and cultural expression

Portfolio samples (Crit. B)
 This is the color mixture to get the orange
I used. The reason I chose to show this
color is because I want to express
warmness through a warm color like
orange. This orange is kind of average
between brightness and darkness. It
doesn’t look any special and that is what
expresses the most. It means the
warmness we get normally that we forget
the important of it. It is the basics of what
we have and when you feel like you have
nothing left, you often forget about these
things. The other colors I use is only black
and white and the ones on the color
scheme is just the default colors of the
software.

 This is the background with the orange warm
feeling of life going through every rough and
smooth obstacles. The black floor/ground
shows the starting point of everything.

 This one is the line degree I drew with
white blended to black at the last point. I
started off just having an objective to make
this line based on stock marketing lines. I
want to express the ups and downs in life
that everyone has to face. The fall at the
last expresses the big lost people can face
and they often forget their place thinking
that they’ve lost everything. The black
blend mixes the line to the black ground in
the other layer to communicate the lost
that it could mean as much as an ending.
An Ending of a part of a journey not the
whole journey or else I would have make
the line fall to the bottom of the artwork
not make a tall black ground.

 This one is the degree line shadow that I
made. I wanted to line to be more realistic
to add that this artwork is inspired from
real-life situations.

 Final artwork
(Replace the image at your right with a
picture of your final work)

This artwork is using the orange color that

doesn’t not have anything special to express the
things people don’t realize they have or that
those things exist just because it is common,
normal and mostly because it is so important it
has become just the basics of life individually.
The usage of white line that blends into black
when falls is just like the degree line of life when
it struggles and falls from difficulties, most
people think that it would be the end of the
journey when it is the end but to the beginning of
the journey. This is the meaning that is expressed
through the compositions of value--where the
color blends and the shadow of the line,
lines--the structure of the degree.
Progress Video
The video is a bit long because I
accidentally opened the app for a long https://drive.google.com/file/d/1X_M
time without realizing which the 9Rv2Da8KwMbsPF9HwrxR6qQ4NdJo
software takes as the progress and most
changes have been done at the end of m/view?usp=sharing
the video and it was very quick. I
expanded the video to show the
progress cleary but it means that most
of the video is mostly nothing
happening so feel free to skip to the part
you see changes.
