This piece was inspired by my original art piece "Initials". To create this original piece we took our view finder and cropped a section of the art piece. Once we picked a section we liked we took a picture. Once we had the picture we printed off a gray scale image to find the right shades, tents, and colors for our piece. My collaborative creative experience was very different from any collaborative project I did. Everybody in the group contributed ideas. There wasn't any big disputes about what to do and where to put things. Everybody considered the ideas of each other. I learned a new technique, which was splattering with a toothbrush. In order to splatter with a toothbrush you must add water to your paint to get it half watery. It almost looks like putty. Once it's watered down you put some paint in the toothbrush and drag your finger across the brush to flick paint onto the canvas. A challenge we kept coming across in our creation process was we kept getting colors in the wrong places or we would use the wrong color by accident. To fix these problems we dried the paint or let the paint dry on it's own. Then we would go back and paint over the spot with the color we intended for it to be. I helped others through their art experience during this project. I did this by leaving constructive feedback on their project. What I mean by constructive feedback is I told them what I liked about their project. As well as suggested things they can add and improve on.
