After facing multiple challenges physically, mentally and emotionally in the span of two weeks, I was faced with the challenge of creating a decent Apollo project in less than a week. I thought, "what else do I have to lose?" as I shook the doubt out and carried on.
My instinct was to do a project on a relevant event in my life. I had actually missed the introduction to project two because I was very ill and in the hospital for a little. I had a VERY interesting experience, so I figured I might as well write about it. I sat down alone for hours and just typed my feelings straight from the heart, which can be intimidating and pretty embarrassing. For someone who doesn't like to open up to anyone about my emotions, I knew this was going to be hard. I wrote about being ill and how it made me feel physically, mentally, and emotionally with as much detail as I could add, without seeming extra. After tons of revising and proofreading, I felt satisfied enough to call it quits. I had realized that writing is its own form of art, I was so into my writing that it started to remind me of the fine art that I get pretty passionate about.
Through my whole experience, I realized how much I need to be grateful about things. That was the driving point behind my writing, I wanted to stress to others through a personal experience how much we should be grateful about our wellbeing and other aspects of life. I realized that I am very grateful to still have my ability to draw and my hand-eye coordination. So, I sat down and banged out a killer drawing of Madonna seductively licking a lollipop, just to show how much I take pride in my work and my ability.
Muah! This piece was done with graphite on standard sketch paper.
