The Second Option
In this artwork the main focus is the pair of sunglasses. The meaning behind this painting is how differently you see yourself and others see you. You might think of yourself as one thing but others see you as another. Doing this project was a little difficult because I had ran out of ideas but this fit perfectly instead.
The Love Trap
The Meaning behind my artwork is about being in a relationship with a manipulative person. A person like this will sweet talk you and sell you a perfect image but behind closed door they aren't a very good person. This hits home because a lot of women in the Mexican community are shunned and told to only listen to what a man has to say. The materials I used for this project were color pencils which were out of my comfort zone but i'm glad my art came out the way I wanted it to.
