Line is the path of a point moving through space. i wanted to just keep it basic throughout this process and considering that i cant draw that good. I also tried to use patterns and use rhythm and movement to the unity of the lines. And also the lines show a bit of a pattern. But my inspiration was from the 3 drawings above mine but all in all the basic concept is fire i showed emphasis on the colors red yellow and orange and a little blue. I used pencil, paint, and markers.
I didnt really enjoy this project because i felt that it was too high school but it did like researching different cultures and there traditions and learning why they use these mask. I learned alot about african cultures and south american cultures.
