Wounded

April 16, 2016 ASAA

Brekken
(3rd Place – Painting)

Title of Art Piece: Wounded
Category: Painting – 2016
Student/Artist’s Name: Brekken Cogswell
School: Eagle River High School
Grade: 11th
Artist Statement: My painting, Wounded, is somewhat dear to me as it is based off a close friend of mine. While the girl’s expression is relatively calm, the arrows suggest she is going through a great deal of pain. I chose this opposing juxtaposition to represent how many who suffer with depression, grief, or anxiety are able to show a calm and collected front. I shot my own reference photo and used a mixture of watercolor and ink to bring my piece together as a coherent whole.
