Artist Statement
I started this piece with the intention of focusing on my dad. I found a picture of him from when we were on a family break that I really loved and thought showed a side of him that I don’t think people outside my family get to see very often. Because my dad is a teacher I hear people in my grade complaining about him often and I wanted to dedicate a piece to showing how I see him.
I haven't done a portrait that isn't digital before so I decided that for my first one I would use acrylic paint because it is a medium I feel I am strong in and I wanted that confidence walking into a piece I was so nervous about.
