I decided to use color as my element of art and to go with my element I decided to draw a beta fish because they have lots of color in them and are one of my favorite types of fish. I painted them after the two beta fish i use to have when i was little, blue is on the top and crimson is on the bottom. I tried to paint them as close as i could to memory. For my medium I painted with water color and to do their tales I used a certain technique of water color called layering so there tail wouldn't combine colors and you could see each color separately. Some new information that I learned was that you can use all the elements in one art piece and make certain ones stand out to help describe your art work. I also learned some new techniques for water color to try out and ended up really liking them and put them in my final piece. The element that i selected for my final was color because it stood out the most to me and knowing what i wanted to paint i thought color would stand out the most. Also i thought that color would help make the painting better and help the fish stand out and make the fish look more detailed. In my painting i didn't really use all of the elements of art and i just mainly used color because it would stand out the most. Overall I really like the way my final piece turned out with the water color and mainly color element, although i wish that the background turned out a little better but overall i really like the way the piece turned out.
