One thing that is really special in my life is my home. It is the place where the people I love the most live. I have never lived in a different house in my 16 years of life, which is probably the reason why I am so attached to my home. I don't really know how to explain it but it is the one place where I can just completely relax. Even though I have lived in this house for so long I still recognize new things about it and learn new things about it. I guess when I came up with the idea to paint it I just wanted to do something that I loved.
This is one of the first paintings that I am proud of. It is also one of the paintings that means the most to me. I really enjoy books, books are my entire life. I honestly love books more than I do anything else in my life. The meaning behind this paint was that books take you a different place while you are reading them. The background is galaxy which symbolizes that books take you to a different place. The girl on top of the book is reading a book that is taking her to another place. I am really happy with how this turned out It really means a lot to me.
This painting is mostly a random idea that popped up into my head. However it does have a meaning behind it. When I was younger and still to this day I really enjoy The Princess Diaries movies. They are the movies I have watched the most in my life. The bike is from one of my favorite scenes when I was little that is what really inspired this entire painting.
For my last project of the school year, I had some troubles at first figuring out what I wanted to do. Then one night I was staring up at my ceiling and I knew what I was going to do. At night my bedroom ceiling is really unique. I made the background of this painting what my ceiling looks like when I look up at it before I fall asleep. To add something more to this I made some gears. The gears symbolize that usually at night, people think a lot. I really like how personal this painting is to me because it is my own ceiling and no one else has a ceiling like mine.
