Description:
The piece was done in graphite. It is a picture of my dog, Griffy. The coat is done in defined sketch marks. The face is very expression-ate of happiness. He is facing the right, and one paw is up while the others are down. 

Analysis:
One principle is emphasis. The dog is in the middle and has an all white background.This is also an example of contrast. The dark coloring of the dog and the blank white background. A final principle is movement. The way I drew the fur, your eyes goes with the fur's direction.

Interpretation:
A dog is a worldly representation of unconditional love. They do not care whether you make a mistake, and they somehow know when you are experiencing a hard day. I wanted to capture my dog's smile in this piece. Dogs seem to have the sweetest grin. This makes them appear always cheerful.

Judge:
I am very proud of how the piece turned out. However, I definitely could have improved the legs and paws. The coat is very detailed and the face expresses emotion. My most proud part is the ears. They look very realistic and defined. The paws look very cartoon-like and as mentioned before I could have done better. I tried my best, and that is all that matters.

myLIFEspeaks Final Piece References Master artist: Leonardo  Da Vinci Contemporary artist: Denis Chernov Rough Draft Describe  I first chose a couple of pictures, that I took, that I may have wanted to draw. I chose this picture of a building. Then, I sketched a couple of different compositions in my sketchbook. I chose the composition I wanted to do, and began my final copy. I made this piece by using graphite pencil. I used a variety of graphite levels. The first thing I did was color the whole page with a HB pencil. Then, I sketched out the whole building. I slowly added details and all the value. Analyze One principle of design, is unity. There is value through out the whole drawing. There is not just a plain white, or an area not touched with graphite. Another, is contrast in value. The light and darkness gives dimension to the art, making it look real. The whole drawing is of the building. It stretches from one end of the paper, to the other. This giv

The way she layers her petals and uses various colors of paper transforms her artwork into realistic masterpieces. I layered the petals on my artwork, and this gives a more 3-D realistic appearance.  Master artist - Pablo Picasso: He was known for his abstract artwork and also his use of cubism. He also had a very vibrant color palette choice. The colors on my artwork a
