"Violin grass"
This is a picture I took of a violin shaped patch of grass in a garden outside of the Stratford festival theatre's garden. They had very beautiful gardens, and their variety of plants and garden life was quite interesting to see. It was obvious that they took great pride in taking care of their garden and garden life when I visited their theatre this summer, so I just had to take pictures of it all including this one. Hope you enjoyed this picture, and try to get outside and enjoy nature. Who knows what you'll find outside! Hope you have a happy day!

"The Tiger Mural"
This is a picture I took of a mural I saw while walking around downtown Chinatown on the weekend.
I really liked the mural because it reminded me a lot of Chinese history and the elements of design are used a lot throughout this piece. There was good line work since the brush strokes vary from width and length, excellent use of colour since there is a variety of hues and shades, decent amount of shapes, a smooth feeling texture, excellent use of space since there isn't a lack or excess of space, and a incredible use of form since the painting looks 2-d and also 3-d in some areas (2-d girl, 3-d tiger face). Overall, this piece is pretty, pretty cool, and pretty darn good at executing the elements of design. Hope you all enjoy this picture as much as I did, and have a happy day!

My some-what faux stained glass painting.
This is a painting I created a few months ago using a canvas, watercolors, and painters tape. I first started by getting out the canvas. The canvas was bought from a dollar store for around 2 dollars or so. Then I got out the tape. I used a brand of tape that I bought from the dollar store. Then, I started applying the tape in long non-symmetrical lines all over the canvas. I tucked the excess tape under the canvas I believe. Then, I got out my watercolours. I had a good quality of watercolours that I think my brother had originally. then, I started to apply the colours in between The spaces. I tried not to paint over the tape though, otherwise It might be confusing later on. I applied the paint in somewhat-thin coats. Then, I carefully and slowly removed the tape from the canvas after the paint dried. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the paint didn't smudge or bleed through the canvas at all! The after result left a cool, interesting conversation starting piece of art that I made myself from scratch. If you want to try this at home go ahead, you can use any size of canvas with any kind of palettes or colours but, It is strongly recommended to use painters tape. Try experimenting with different amounts of tape in different shapes, or even with different types of paint. Anyways, hope you enjoyed this wonderful piece of art I made at home, and have a happy day!
My profile picture. My profile picture represents me because it displays 2 things about me.
1: my love of painting my nails
and 2:My love of pokemon.
With these qualities included, my profile picture
represents being artistic and keeping on keeping on, that includes staying true to yourself and enjoying your favorite things and hobbies(My obsession with nail art and pokemon still continue).
I didn't really do too much to change the photo. I just made the intensity of the photo a bit brighter, and I made the contrast slightly more light in the photo.
With that being said, I think that this picture identifies what I am, and what I like.
