Experience in Art

I've been involved in various types of art classes and in those classes I've done pencil drawing, graffiti, water-coloring, pastel, acrylic painting and collages. My most favorite type of art technique is water-coloring because I love the way the colors can diffuse and blend in with one another so amazingly. When the water colors are all dried up, I like to go over it with a black pen or a sharpie pen creating a drawing right on top.

Damian Ortega is a very fascinating Mexican artist who uses everyday life materials in his art, for example, Volkswagen Beetle cars, Day of the Dead posters and locally sourced corn tortillas (which I found to be hilarious). His work explores specific economic, aesthetic and cultural situations and, in particular, how regional culture affects commodity consumption. Damian always was fond of art but by watching his brother, who liked to do a lot of experiments and take apart kitchen appliances to see how they work, he then branched out his ideas to taking common materials apart. For example, on the bottom right corner is a picture of "Cosmic Thing," a beetle car was used for this specific type of art because for one, he had his own, secondly it was part of his own family, and thirdly because it was the most popular car in Mexico City. This exploded installation gave this vibe that every piece, every part of the beetle car had it's own life and it&
