Title of Art Piece: Mom and I
Category: Painting – 2023
Student/Artist’s Name: Mckenna Collins
School: Dimond High School
Grade: 10th
Artist Statement: I decided to paint the image of my mom and myself walking through a park. My mom means a lot to me. She’s amazing, kind, smart, beautiful, and funny. For her birthday I decided to paint this for her. It really inspired me to do this in a different style. I decided to do pointillism. Pointillism stood out to me because of the way the brain morphes and merges all the colors to make the image unite and come together. I’m truly happy about how this turned out.
Artwork Dimensions: 9×12
