Right away when I was told about this project I knew the just of what I wanted to do. In 4th grade I read a book called Heaven Is For Real. Its about a child who died, went to heaven, and came back to life again. His father wants to know what heaven was like and what Jesus looks like. They searched for years and years, but the hair was too long or the eyes weren't alive enough. Finally, he came upon a eight year old girl artist named Akiane (whom's mother was an atheist) she had painted what the son said was Jesus. Anyways this Akiane girl started drawing realistic faces at age four! I love her art so I knew I wanted to do a remix of one of her paintings. She created this piece, "Battle," when she was 16 and you can find more info about this art prodigy on the links I've attached below. The first image I have attached is the original piece with the Akiane's face in place of the one she put in. The one below that is my digital version of what I wanted to do. Finally, below that is different stages on my art through out the process of making it, and the final product. I really enjoyed this project because there were few guide lines so i was able to just let my creativity run wild! I changed the original picture about four times. Th first was switching the heads out, the next to draw it, the next to splatter paint the drawing, and final to put psalm 23 in the back round was my last. https://www.akiane.com/store/ http://www.coachville.com/2013/06/09/akiane-kramarik-engage-2013/ http://www.pinterest.com/explore/spiritual-inspiration-art/
Anna, I really like the way your art work is. I love the detail in the angels face. I also love how the wings look very realistic. You have lots of talent in art so keep going!
I liked how you used the paint for the hair. I thought it added some needed color too a dark picture. Overall I loved it!

Your 2D Art Project was really interesting! You changed it a lot from the original picture, which is great! I greatly like the way you did the hair on it also! Good Job on your project!
Anna, I don't even know where to start.:) You are such an amazing artist...and what you did for this project absolutely blew me away! The time you took to make everything look so realistic is amazing. I really like how you put the face in there that you wanted. And I LOVE how the wings look.
