When did you step back and analyze you work during this project?
Throughout the process of my printmaking, I stepped back and looked at my piece, and I tried to determine where to go from my current piece. This was necessary during the process, in order to ensure that my piece would flow and that the colors would stand out and work together. 

Did you consider how ideas would work before you tried them?
Before I began to print, I made sure that I knew which color I would use for every layer, and which pieces of the minion would go with each color.This helped make sure that I had a plan on paper and in my mind before I tried to put this plan to life. 

Did you ask another student for feedback during your work process?
Throughout the process, I periodically asked my table-mates what they thought of my piece. I also asked them for advice on my title/

Did someone help you understand important information or inspire you?
I absolutely adore minions, but it especially inspired me when people complimented my print. When people complimented my print, I was reassured that it looked good, and this inspired me to continue working hard.

In progress: For the color project, I picked the theme "explore". My piece is an illustration of a dream catcher, and I incorporated the idea of exploring dreams in my piece. I picked colored pencils to produce my piece, and I got the chance to use the Prisma Colors. I chose to use colored pencils on a black background because it really adds a "pop". Currently, my only main difficulty was deciding what to do for this project.

Finished: My piece successfully "pops" and I am proud of the details in my feathers, as well as the intensity of the colors inner part of the dream catcher.  If I could change one thing about my piece, I would definitely add more feathers to the dream catcher. By doing this project, I learned that art does not always have to be on a white background. The color of the background can be a great determining aspect of a piece. Also, I really enjoyed using the Prisma colors!

My definition of art: Art is communication in the form of expression. It is a universal language, and it connects people from all kinds of backgrounds, ethnicity, and cultures.
Although this meme is not technically "beautiful", it can still be considered art because it is a form of communication.
