My art work is a combination of straight lines at an angle to create a curve. In this piece of work I utilized negative space to have the same effect as filled space. I also learned the concept of a motif. In this particular drawing the motif is the straight lines turning into swirls or curves. Smaller shapes then connect and combine to form a bigger overall picture. The main focus of my work is the hexagon in the middle, in which I used very tightly spaced lines to create a drastic effect. I also noticed that even straight lines can produce the illusion of movement. This project is meaningful to me because it is my very first piece and I learned to keep an open mind and explore new options.
