Okay, so this week I started a painting completely impulsively and saved my pencil drawing for holiday break. I really love the picture I based the painting off of, which is why I chose to paint it. I'm sure I won't run out of pictures of my cat to paint/draw/alter, however I'm wondering how to keep them all different enough while still showcasing my full potentials. The idea of a "concentration" is still unclear in meaning to me. I am having fun making all these cute artworks of my cat though, so I guess as long as I don't plan to submit my portfolio to the College Board.... Does it really matter if the concentration makes sense or would score well as a whole?

Over this week,I finished a piece I had started quite a while ago - and I still don't think it's 100% finished. I may add another piece to finish this as a diptych. However, at this moment in time, I feel incapable of accomplishing my envision of the accompanying piece. I will hopefully come back later to add that when I improve. I also started another drawing, of my cat of course. It is extremely far from being done. This piece was SUPPOSED to be my second finished piece, but that didn't happen. I'm not sure that it will even be my third finished piece honestly. However, I feel strongest with graphite, so even though it takes me the longest to finish this pieces, they are my strongest. I hope that in the end it will be worth it.
My first finished piece!.... That I hate and am redoing part of!! Well, I love 2/3 of them.... I bet you can guess which one I don't like. The "contour" line drawing is LITERAL trash and I hate it. I'm redoing it in charcoal and realistically like the ink and graphite ones. If I don't like that one either... I guess I'll just die or something. It took me a while to even come up with that one, out of four other failed attempts. It was really aggravating. However, I do really like the pencil and ink ones! I'm much more comfortable in both of these techniques/styles.
