Young Artist Alcove:
Priscilla Padilla
October14 - December 10, 2017
Artist statement: In my artwork, I like to express my personal feelings or issues I am dealing with in my life with realistic objects and symbols. The media that helps me express my ideas are mainly watercolor, colored pencil, graphite, and ink because they allow me to get into greater detail. I typically work with line variation, value and texture in my work which helps create realism. One of the titles for one of my artwork is called "Life is Love” because, I want the heart shaped glasses to represent the love I have for what surrounds me in life and appreciate what life has to offer for me. My goal as an artist is to improve my ability to visually express my ideas more clearly.
