About the occupation of visual arts

The picture on Internet, 25cmx21cm, 2017

           This is a job about visual arts I want to do. This is a poster. The job is call Calligrapher. This is from ancient China. The people must have the ability to write Chinese characters and write well. They have to good at writing. Use the brush correctly. Calligraphy is also divided into many categories. So I found some picture and information on the internet. Like brush, the picture from with the brush. I used the GIMP to mix them.
           How can the people write the word beautiful? I can't write beautiful. I think is not easy to write the beautiful word.
         

Square loom




Yarn and stick, 12cmx16cm, 2017

       This is third artwork I did. This is called square loom. It is wall hanging. When I do this, I feel tired and irritability. I always go the wrong way to make this. I need to redo the way again. And this is very hard to hold the way to keep this. I think this is the most difficult in my artwork. Why do they want to do this? Maybe it can make the wall beautiful? I want to know. And What is the meaning of this?
       First, I will find a cardboard, and wrapped the yarn. We need to  use the ruler and careful. If you do not careful, you will do it wrong. I did it wrong many time...... But if you finish, it is very beautiful!!!
       They use this for their clothes, their towel and their small ornaments. I think this is useful and beautiful. 

Dream catcher


Dream catch. Yarn,leather,metal ring,feathers,beads,sinew. 42cmx18cm. 2017





          This is the second artwork I did. This is call dream catcher. It means parents want their children have good dream. I used the yarn,leather,metal ring,feathers,beads and sinew. I think is difficult to use this to hold the yarn on the metal ring. It hard and hurt. I need to remember the way I made this. Because if I did wrong, it is not beautiful. But how did the parents design this? How do they know this?
          First, I will hold the metal ring and use the glue let the yarn be stable. Then I wrapped the yarn. Second, I will use the line to make some do some tricks, like the flowers. Finally, I will find the pom pom and feathers to let it see beautiful.
          This just a culture of a country. They are from south Canada. They hope their children have a good dream. I think is every good and I hope my family have a good dream so I choose this.

Ojos de Dios


Ojos de Dios. yarn, stick, pom pom. 30cmx30cm. 2017

           This was the first artwork I have ever did. It is from south America. It means Eyes of god. I used yarn, sticks and pom pom. It's different to use the yarn to make this. I need to remember the way to use the line and make it like square. And I need to choose the colour. I want to choose the comfortable colour, so I need to careful to choose.  Why the ojos de dios represent eyes of god?
          First, I will find two branches. Second, I will find a people help me to hold the branches. Then I will start to use the yarn and let it be stable. Finally I will make it like the square.
          Ojos de Dios have traditionally been created for celebration or blessing, presented as a gift or designed to bless a home.
