A: YOUR BEST PIECE OF CREATIVE WORK AT HIGH SCHOOL

I sketched this picture from a book detailing 20th century fashion, and I think the woman reflects the glamour and elegance of the 1920s-30s. To me the eyes have a sense of reality to them, like you can read something from them, I don’t really know. It was a quick sketch and when I finished I was amazed at both how similar and dissimilar it looked from the original. It lacked the confidence, which I think is replaced by a kind of insecurity but the beauty’s still there. I don’t know if it’s the best I’ve done but I really like it because if feel it evokes a sense of thought and emotion.
