Write 600 words describing my painting and make a PowerPoint slides about it following exactly the instructions

1- Attached are the following:

a) my painting about the global warming

b) the professor instructions about what should be done in the paper and its presentation (all should be reflected on the attached painting)

2- Some information about my painting:

In my painting, I have applied what I’ve learned in this course. So, I applied the Transparency lesson that appears in my colors when I mixed up the red and yellow that makes orange color seen. Also, in coloring the globe Atmospheric Perspective I apply what I’ve learned in this lesson through manipulation of hue. The value and saturation Color Temperature Warm vs. Cool and this appears in terms of the warm color like yellow and the cool color like blue and green. Finally, Optical Blending’s lesson helped me show my idea of the effects of warming on the earth.

I’ve also shown the names of the lessons (principles) on my painting that show where I applied each concept on the painting

3- The required is:

a) write a paper of 600 words about this painting in which you must reflect each point the professor mentioned on my painting. you must follow the rubric carefully here.

b) Make a PowerPoint slides about it following exactly the professor instructions (attached)

point out to parts you are describing of painting, also write footnote.

In both paper and presentation, try to emphasize how this course (Color Theory-Fine Art) makes me understand how to effectively use colors.

Please understand the paiting and the instructions very well in order to do the work

Moreover, my art piece illustrated optical blending, which is a concept learned to show color fusing. Worth noting, optical blending is a phenomenon demonstrating how color fusing is an aspect of brain interaction. I used rough brush strokes to create an impression of pure colors on the fire-like flames covering the globe to achieve this. At a glance, one can say that the orange hue has a blend of other pigments; however, the optical color mixing due to close positioning creates this impression (Fichner-Rathus, 2014). As an artist, this is a strategic technique that I can integrate to demonstrate tonal progression or enhance rhythm in my artwork. With that in mind, I have realized that even the surrounding color on the surface, such as white space, can affect how one perceives color fusing. Therefore, by applying this technique, I managed to portray how human beings unconsciously engage in actions that fail to protect the universe’s health. I realized there was a need to raise awareness of how unconscious thoughts can alter environmental health, as seen in optical blending.

Rachel Jones used the abstraction technique to make the art. It allows an audience to perceive beyond the tangible aspect of the painting. It explores the unknown and intuition, and freedom of the artist. It is evident in the ability to connect to the intention presented by the artist. This style of art frees the mind of the artists from visual restrictions. It is why Jones incorporated the mouth, teeth, and flowers. The artists utilized the abstraction technique to center on an exploration of self-identity. In relation to the Black figures, the interiority of their bodies and their lived experience was related. The abstracted forms of mouth, teeth, and flowers portray a literal entry and symbol to the interior and self (The Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. 2019). Another approach applied by the artist is figurative. The painting portrays the natural forms of human aspects, including the teeth and the mouth. However, Rachel Jone’s figurative approach is not highlighted meticulously. Instead, the figuration is unclear at first glance, but a detailed audience can recognize the figurative pieces of the teeth, the lips, and the flowers.
