TwistedFor this assignment I decided to challenge myself into trying something new. Quilling is something I constantly see on my Instagram feed and just always grabbed my attention. It isn’t an all around 3-D design but it’s definitely a pop up 3-D. The title of my work is Twisted because it defines it’s movement of the paper. Also I had to constantly twist my wrist to get the paper to look a certain way. The amount of time put into making the paper curved I believe is the most obvious element in my work. My artwork is simple. It was made from construction paper and the squares were made of puffy paint. I used a tweezers to help me make the specific sharp curves on the pig which sometime was difficult that i had to use my nails also as a tool. My artwork doesn’t come from a social or personal issue it was more of me having fun and just doing something new. My pig is asleep and has a smile meaning he is having a peaceful dream. My goal as an artist with this assignment was to finish what I started. I wasn’t sure if i was going to commit to quilling because the amount of time it took just to get a curve done or a leg but it was totally worth it. This piece taught me patience and to concentrate on things I want to accomplish. I learned that when things look easy in reality is hard and takes time but you just need patience and confident and you’ll get through it. My final piece was exactly what I had imagine it to be and I love it.
