Visual Arts: Chose a painting from the baroque. Abstract it. You can use both organic and geometric shapes. The painting has to be in acrylic painting.
Criteria: Use of color, technique, contrast, composition.
The size of the painting is 50 x 60.
Then we got a project in Visual arts: Make an illustration of your literary topic. The criteria were the idea, composition, use of color, volume, drawing/shading, creativity and all in al impression in technique. The techniques we could use was first of all drawing and then we could use some painting and collage.
My literary topic was female crime writers. First I chose Camilla Läckberg, then I chose a scene from four of her books (from down right: The gallows birds, The hidden child, The stone cutter and The drowning). Since the theme was crime, I could use more red on the maps, but I decided to use blue to let it be kind of flowing and mysterious.

Our first project in Visual arts was to make a collage of a worldwide news by using three different techniques. I chose the 22.07 terror attack that happened in Oslo summer of 2011. I wanted to make it like a memorial work. In the picture there is 77 roses, a rose for each person that got killed. And I chose to draw and paint hands that shows different cultures managing to live together. The techniques I used was acrylic painting, pencil and paper collage.
I didn’t manage to scan the whole picture, therefore the top is cropped 😛
