In Task 1, I like the style of large-scale painting，which makes the picture richer with stronger visual impact. The paintings are very successful. Through your work, it can be seen that the mixed use of colored crayons and colored pencils is your advantage. You can use the characteristics of crayons to draw the texture of different objects very well, such as broken chair sign, three-legged dog outside, waitress, face mask, faces, etc. I especially like your face mask work. The eyes and mouth are drawn with colored pencils to draw the delicate skin, and Using black crayon to draw stiff masks, so that the overall picture has a strong contrast and impact. In addition, the colors used are also very bold, which can attract the attention of the viewers and led a deep impression on me. The faces work’s texture is very interesting, In this work you can change the texture by mixing lumps form and collages. I suggest that you can explore with more expressive forms and painting techniques about crayons and colorful pencils in the next work. For example, using decorative painting techniques.
I like your series of works very much, and the colors and composition of the paintings are interesting and fun. I believe you will have fun in the process.

In Task 2, it is very interesting to use Photoshop to develop existing works and get new patterns. I really like your colors and the further patterns obtained by PS, which is very creative, full of your own style and characteristics. I suggest that you can use different observation methods to get more textures or patterns of drawing, then develop and create new patterns.

I learn from your works that it is very interesting to draw large-scale paintings. This will help me to paint more details and make my works more impact. I also want to make my work more personal. I can practice a lot in my own works to find my own style and characteristics.
