Art Journal Entry XIV: Refining My Artwork
Tumblr media
Technical and Creative- need more details to show what is the message of art
Creative- color to specify the art work
Cultural and historical- it's about psychological disorder, but add more life to the art.
Critical approach- the artwork must exhibit connection from the artist.
Aesthetic approach- since the artwork doesn't have any color, the artist must express the message of this artwork by using color and objects.

San Agustin Church of Paoay
The Paoay Church history began in the 17th century. What started as Paoay Church drawing turned into reality. The construction of the Simabhan ng Paoay in Ilocos Norte was spread over a century beginning from 1604: the cornerstone of the church was laid in 1704; the convent in 1707; and the belltower in 1793. Even while still unfinished, Paoay Church was already used by parishioners. In 1896, it was finally inaugurated. But in 1706 and 1927, it was damaged by earthquakes. Its scars made it more beautiful and worth visiting. Because of San Agustin Church Paoay’s historical and artistic significance, it was designated as a National Cultural Treasure by the Philippine government in 1973 and a UNESCO World Heritage Site among the country’s baroque churches in 1993.

The Rape of Manila
With rape on the streets and everywhere else, the Bayview Hotel became Manila’s rape center. After the dirty deed was done, nipples were sliced off, and bodies bayoneted open from the neck down. The devastation of Manila was one of the great tragedies of World War II. Seventy percent of the utilities, 72 percent of the factories, 80 percent of the southern residential district, and 100 percent of the business district were razed…Hospitals were set afire after their patients had been strapped to their beds. The corpses of males were mutilated, females of all ages were raped before they were slain, and babies’ eyeballs gouged out and smeared on walls like jelly.

Portrait of Abu'l Hasan, The Last Sultan of Golconda
The sultan is shown with a radiant gold nimbus, a convention of Deccani portraits of rulers. The Mughals finally conquered Golconda after a long siege, and Abu'l Hasan spent the last 17 years of his life in confinement.

This painting has lost the decorative margin papers that once framed it, leaving the blank edges of the page visible.

Berlin Crucifixion
The scene is a turning point in traditional iconography, after the experimental innovations in the Crucifixion of Giotto's Scrovegni Chapel frescoes. The cross of Jesus is lifted from the center of the painting in hieratic splendor from a uniform gold ground. Sorrowful angels surround the figure of Christ, while Mary Magdalene (in a red dress) embraces the base of the cross.
Two groups gather at the painting's sides, leaving the center with Christ isolated. At left, the group of women surrounds Mary, who is fainting, and a young girl looks at her worried. Saint John the Baptist stands at right, with a man on horseback who is raising his arm, a traditional gesture made by those recognizing Jesus as the son of God.

"My other half"
This digital art is made by connecting lines, as you can see it's a two people hugging each other, and by hugging we feel the presence, love and the heart of our other half. My love language is physical touch and quality time, so whenever I feel alone or sad I just close my eyes and feel that I'm hugging the person I'd like to see and hug. It's very important to feel love and happiness, and it's okay to feel it by yourself, because love comes to those person who know how to love themselves first. I'm grateful that lines can make something not just ordinary lines but a connected lines that you can express yourself with it.

These 5 K-POP songs are from BTS and SEVENTEEN, my two ultimate fave group. These music motivate me every single time! My worries go away everytime I play these song. They inspire me to just be myself and love myself genuinely. Many people can't understand what they are saying especially when you're not from south korea but there's always an english translation, our second language is English so I can fully understand their music. These are some of my favorite quotes from SEVENTEEN Joshua "it's always good to try your best, but what I want you to know that it's okay to have a break once in a while or you'll burn out" from BTS Namjoon "No matter who you are, where you're from, your skin colour, gender identity, speak and love yourself". They are not just my favorite groups but they are my motivation and source of energy, especially I'm always alone because my family are old enough so they're working and minding their own business, my parents are busy working, and since I'm the youngest I'm always alone in our house, so when I watch BTS and SEVENTEEN videos my loneliness and my unmotivated mind all that thoughts disappears and change into a very good mood.
These are some of my favorite lines or phrase in these five songs; from Life Goes On by BTS "With the ”annyeong” that we start and finish the day, let us thread tomorrow with today stopped for now but don't hide in the shadow. Once again daylight will glow." From Hug by SEVENTEEN "No matter how much you hide it you know you can't hide it forever so we can smile together don't be sorry, don't worry don't be scared, now don't cry to me you are very precious you can tell me today was tough I am here, you suffered a lot I love you I will hug you." From 21st Century Girls by BTS " You worth it you perfect deserve it just work it You look elegant, elegant. Also you’re pretty, pretty you shine, shine. You’re the truth and the reason." From Smile Flower by SEVENTEEN "I can smile because we're together I can cry because it's you so what can't I do? Whenever, wherever even if we're not together, just like always our smile flowers bloom I'll be the spring to your smile." Last is from Wings by BTS "I believe me, you, though the beginning may be humble, the future will be prosperous fly fly up in the sky fly fly get 'em up high."

”My Forever Love”
My beloved Snowflakes who just died on monday, feb 22 2021. I used watercolor and thick paper. While I was doing this I just can't help but to cry because I remember when she always stayed by my side, whenever I'm crying she always come to me and lick my hand and that comfort me every single time, she died because of cancer and I saw her struggling and hurting, I immediately went to vet with her by my arms crying, blood flow to her nose, while my shirt is full of blood, I can't help but to cry while I was in vet. My mind still can't process everything, so I know in myself that she's alive so I still did everything that I do when she's still here but eventually I know that she's happy now, she's not suffering anymore, and I know that she loves me so much more that I love her. You did great buddy! You're still my number 1 kasama in every labas sa bahay, every bili sa tindahan and every natutulog ka sa lap ko ikaw padin, mahal na mahal kita snowflakes ko! Maraming salamat sa mahigit tatlong taon na kasama moko/kita. My best buddy, and my daughter. I love you.

I'm a big fan of her since grade 4, I remember that I was always printing her lyrics songs like some of my favorite songs like Enchanted, The Story of Us, Mine, Dear John, Back to December and all of her songs. She inspire me to write some songs or poems, I also like to sing her songs in karaoke. She never let haters bring her down but instead she focus on her fans, without her we don't have a legend like her who does her own music. Indeed she's a very good artist that inspires others.

Art Journal Entry III: Self-portrait

”Pieces to Pieces”
Subject: Made by Jenelle
Let me explain my own title first, pieces to pieces, I draw the original photo then I thought "hmm this is too simple" so what I did is the first picture wherein I cut the original photo to my drawing then I paste it to give emphasize to my drawing and to my original photo. I am different inside and out, but it's still me. I may look a happy person outside but there still loneliness inside my mind. But I always try my best to be genuinely happy, that's my dream and I hope that's everyone dream. Myself is still a pieces to pieces but still trying to be a whole person where I can be myself that can truly love herself. The process of life is hard but you can still be happy in that process, you deserve it if you work it.

6th MINI ALBUM ; You Made My Dawn
'Hug' by SEVENTEEN (vocal line)
This song will not just hug you but also comfort you everytime you're unmotivated and doesn't have energy at all. This song made me feel like I'm not the only one that crying is okay but saying sorry about yourself isn't good, "it's time to stop saying hurtful words with yourself, don't worry, don't be scared, don't cry" this song really comfort me, this is my 'go-to' song whenever I feel drowning by my own thoughts. I love their song so much because you will feel their love for their fans, fun fact that seventeen is the one's who make their own music, that's why you will feel the sincerity and comfort of this song. I have so much to share but when this song came across my mind I was like "this is it, it's the song that you'll never get tired of" and I guess that's why I chose this masterpiece. "Even though we're miles away from each other, I am virtually there for you, I will hug you, and be with you everytime you feel alone" I hope if someone is reading this, you MUST listen to this song.
This song is both aesthetic and beautiful because this will linger to your ears and comfort you by the lyrics of this song, and I will never get tired of listening to this.

Art Journal Entry 1: Scribbling Soul
Tumblr media
A yellow flower 🌻 We all know that flower can makes us happy and loved. Yellow flower symbolizes happiness, joy and friendship, as the symbol itself I'm the type of person/ friend who always want to make others happy, I also express my love by hugs and kisses even my friends are disgusted with that, but when it's me who will do that to them they'll eventually fall for it. I also love sunflower and it's color yellow, so this artwork of mine really represent my personality.
I actually didn't know that I will see flower the first time I saw what I scribbled, it may look cliche or what but I didn't expect that it will turn in to my flower, I used my creativity and imagination to create this beautiful yellow flower.
