Self evaluation

Well, that was fun!

I really enjoyed working on each of the assigned tasks we were given and I feel like I am improving much more as an artist. Over the 3 tasks we were set I am starting to see much more confidence within my work and practice as a whole - this is evident in my 2nd and 3rd task as I became more expressive with my mark makings and focused less on over rendering a final piece. I also think that I am becoming much more efficient and organized with how I progress through a task, brainstorm ideas and create digital paintings. I feel like I have learned and got a hang of the process behind character and environmental concept design now and I want to improve on that foundation.

If I were to do any of the projects again, I would definitely be much more experimental and use all resources available to me. The jump and experimentation with 3D during the 3rd task also made me realize this. I also noticed I can get too caught up in an idea that I generated early, instead of investigating and pushing the designs further. This I would also correct, if I were to repeat the tasks. Time management was also an issue for me; too many times I would find myself bummed down by a piece of work only to procrastinate for too long over the thought of failure which is something that I need to

I was happy overall with the skills I have developed over these short weeks and I have taken a liking to 3D modeling as well. I am also becoming much more interested in the processes behind the creation of concept art, which may lead me into more experimentation and diversify my future work.
