I am Heather Dorgan. I love to do art all the time when I have free time. I am taking art this semester because I love to do it and it gives me a chance to express my feelings and emotions that I hold inside. It makes me relax when I am stressed out. I don't have a favorite artist I just want my work to be original. I'm am not fully sure what my favorite type of art is. That even though my art is random it still holds a message behind it. That my art shows feelings and emotions that no one knows how to express. My favorite part about art is u can create something and call it your own. I mostly just do doodles and don't really have a style for my artwork. My personally favorite media that i like to work with is paint. Most of my inspiration comes from music and how im feeling when I'm creating it.
The art work that I decided to pick was the one I did around the time of halloween. I used sharpies then went over with paint so it becomes bolder and stand out. I drew things that I knew represented halloween the best. I had a haunted house to represent a movie that I used to watch on halloween. I wanted to draw fangs to represent vampires bacause people say vampires are going to drink our blood on halloween night. The words on this artwork is from a song named Thriller by michael jackson, a song that is not something i want to listen that night. The howl in the mountains represents of course werewolves because they only come out when a full moon is rising which explains the full moon in the corner. Pretty much every thing I drew represents something to do with the theme of halloween. Even though halloween is not my favorite holiday I love what I have created in the mean time. I love this artwork because it is unique in its own way just like I am. In art this semester, I have learned many different tequniques and to let myself go and create what I want. When I create I dont think of who is going to see it or what people will think about it. All that matters is what I think about it and no one else.
