Final Day

This is the finished piece and I think that it has more colour then I had anticipated but I feel the message "happiness happens any where" wasn't clearly sent but it is there. I originaly wanted this piece to be a value with limited colour on subject-3 ( the thing with sharp teeth ) to maximize focus on it.

Day one

With each idea I tried to send the message I intended to.

Idea one failed to do so, instead it sent a message of loneliness 

Idea two was an attempt to do that with abstract, that also failed.

Idea thee was more of a surealist concept 

Idea four was a more sucsessful concept

Idea five and six had a unique and different style and would be the least time consuming to draw and that's why I chose it.

Day two

I have drawn the front first becuase that was the part that required precision to pull off the right perspective.

I feel that this drawing might not be finished in time becuase of the amount of shading that is needed to be done.

Inspiration


Rationale

I chose this song because it's one of my favourite songs that has lyrics in it which was needed for me to be able to use it as the inspirational component of  the art exam.

I plan to use the grime this song has through out it to shape the environment of my surrealist/abstract art. For example it might be in a cave or a factory.

When I listen to the song it makes my feel excited and a little more positive about my work and what Im doing at that time so it erases all the self doubt and second thoughts I would have when I am drawing or working on my art.

I will try my best to utilize that feeling in my art work by having the over all piece look happy and positive but in a grimy and un expected location. The message I would try to send would be "Good times happen any where".

[Verse 1: KRS-ONE]
You don't know the difference yet
So let's go up
This the music you listen to
As you roll up
On the scene I mean
It's Knowledge
Reigns Supreme I mean

I cover the whole face of hip-hop
Like I'm Maybelline
I got a crazy team
With over a million members
But rappers deal with numbers
MCs we deal with letters

Let-ters
They let you see

The formation of new ideas as energy
Pass that pen to me
I free style up off the average
I'm like an alien MC surrounded by savages
(Uh) It's like a jungle sometimes, but I'm superior
Man, I got bundles of rhymes to clear this whole area

[Beat Drop]

[Verse 2: KRS-ONE]
You won't find me in the mainstream if you look
You gotta look up higher there in them history books
Universal doesn't give me hooks
Nobody writes for KRS, you can read my books

Man, I be's my looks
No makeup here

I don't hang around at the top
It's too fake up there
Forget being in the front
I'd rather sit in the rear
And chill with my real people way down here
And oh yeah, I'd rather have a hundred true heads by me
Than one million fake fanatics standing behind me
Try me, I keep it roarin' grimy
In front of the local Shop 'n Go
Spitting flows is where you'll find me
In the club
They have to look
Cause the crowd be jumpin' up from my classic hooks
Man, I'm not the crook type
I'm more the book type
I exist so you can see what a master looks like
