Self critics of my drawing;

i tink that what ive drawn is not as good as i tink that the drawing that ive drawn are too common.

i need to try out new imaginative and creative ideas on how to stylize more on the drawings.

i think that what ive is not very well done as there are less malay culture examples and i think my colouring needed more pressure on it and shading too.

ive put in 3 drawing of my malay culture and that the sepak takraw ball[as the background],halal sign[in the middle] and a batik flower at he side.

i put my self potrait at the sides of the two ends and i draw my hair in diff colours.

this is beacuse i do not want the drawing to look exactly like me but mostly a cartoon of myself.

but basically, i think my drawing was okay. :DD

YANI'S DRAWING:
i) Describe what you see,
using elements of art (line, shape, form, texture and so forth) as your guide, describe what your peer drawn, what is the whole image about.
Yani's work drew a stylisation of her self-potrait. She large out her face to the front and she drew different shapes at the back making it unique.
ii) Analyse how the work is being presented,
using principles of design (emphasis, repetition, rhythm, depth and so forth), analyse what is the relationship of the subject matter and the background.
Yani did some repetition in her drawing. She repeated the inner part of which is representative of her culture. There is some rhythm in how she random order. She represent her slef potrait making it seem as if the different shapes and drawings that she drew is representing her own culture. It would be good if she present some depth in her drawing like drawing the CHAP-TEH in a more wavy manner.
iii) Interpretate how the work make you feel and think,
-Describe the expressive qualities you find in the work. What expressive language would you use to describe the qualities (i.e., tragic, ugly, funny)?-Does the work remind you of other things you have experienced (i.e., analogy or metaphor)?-How does the work relate to other ideas or events in the world and/or in your other studies?
Yani's drawing seems happy as her face shows an expression of happiness. The pattern that she drew repeatedly on the gasing,chapteh and the sepak takraw ball shows that she is in a happy mood. By the way, i do not think there are any sadness towards this picture.
iv) Evaluate if this work is a success or a failure.
-What qualities of the work make you feel it is a success or failure?-Compare it with similar works that you think are good or bad.-How original is the work? Why do you feel this work is original or not original?
Yani's work is a success but at the same time it is not as the her drawings really needed more shading and depth to be done. This is to ensure that the picture that she actually drew needs to come alive.
And to make it more representable.
But overall,i like her drawing as it expresses her feelings towards my life as well.
