Artist Statement:
My final portfolio piece is a colored pencil drawing of a sloth. I chose to do a sloth because I wanted to create my project around the topic of endangered animals. I selected this theme for my portfolio because I love the environment and animals. I would like for people to take notice of all the animals that are slowly fading away as they are hunted or have their homes taken away from them. I hope that I can raise awareness. My sloth drawing fits into my theme because sloths are on the list as an endangered species. I chose to use colored pencil as my medium because I wanted it to look realistic in order for people to easily recognize it. As I worked I found it difficult to draw all the overlapping colors and thin, individual hairs. I resolved this problem by taking my time and working very carefully to create at detailed product. In the end, I am very proud of my final piece of artwork. I believe this project shows my growth as an artist because I think it is one of my best pieces I have ever drawn. I am glad that my sloth came out well and I hope it inspires people to help save the endangered species in the world.
