I would like to name this work of art “Lucid Dreams” because it is my dream to take a photo of a tree with a nice space and the northern light background that makes you feel like you are creating your dream. Lucid can also have a meaning of Luminous or Bright light. I created this work of art by taking a photo of a normal tree in the garden. Then, I sketched the tree with a pencil to make it a representational artwork of the tree. Next, I played around with the elements of art to create an abstract artwork inspired by my sketch. Lastly, I created the abstract artwork with Acrylic paint (for the different colors) and chalk (for the texture) in the style of Action painting originally created by Jackson Pollock. The skill I learned while creating this was Speed is the key to success. For example, when I was doing the action painting part, the speed of flicking my wrist is very important because if it was too fast it would go all over the table and if it was too slow not enough paint would go onto the paper. My favorite part was the tree trunk because it looks like space. I also liked the two Lion Dance next to the tree trunk because it was Chinese New Year so I did that.
