I used the method of printmaking to make this portrait of Langston Hughes. This piece was inspired Elizabeth Catlett's many works that use the printmaking technique.
This piece manipulated several photos that were put together into one photo. A cat, a toy car, a figure, a potted plant, and the background image. I put the cat inside the car and the figure right next to it. Then I placed the plant on top of the windowsill. This assignment delt with a lot of cutting and placeing the images, but in the end was an easy task.
This piece was inspired by another similar work that I had previously seen. In this artwork, I depicted different parts of Conyers and the surrounding community. I included the Synagogue, Olde Town buildings. The Dinky Train. Cherry Blossoms from Conyers' annual Cherry Blossom Festival, and red arch near the library and Lily pads from the Botanical Garden. I used acrylic paint for this piece with a watercolor background.
