Me as Medusa






This art work was done by a close friend of mine, Christebelle Chandini. She has given me permission to use her art work. The work is called 'Me as Medusa' as this is how she interprets herself to be. She likes to use snakes as a form of tool to scare others.Her hair is naturally curly, which reminds me alot about Goldilocks and her curls. Chandini has always wished her hair would resemble the form of snakes.
She also incorporated snake-like features to her face by drawing a side portrait of herself and adding on squarish features of a snake. In the photo you can see the snack looking back. This shows that she has to always watch her back and always defend herself. Having the tongue of the snake to stick out also shows how strong and brave she is as a person.

Once Upon a Time

Once Upon a Time by Yulia Santoso is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported License.
This drawing was based on my theme for art in practice module which is "Once Upon a Time". The words "Once upon a time" is usually used as the begining of fairytale story. That's why my drawing has a castle which usually represents fairytale. I put some curved lines as the frame and some decorations to make it nice. I placed the castle on a rock and put clouds behind the castle to show that it is above the sky. For the words "Once upon a time", I use Old English font type which is cursive font to match the theme and the curve frame.

A Beauty and A Beast
This is a sculpture I made for my last 3D project. This shows a very contrast combination between red roses and sharp nails. I made this based on the inspiration that everything in this world has their own goodness and also bad sides. If we are looking at people's behaviour, there are always the evil sides even if they're good looking and friendly. In this sculpture, the three red roses represent a beauty while the nails represent a beast.
In conclusion, from making this sculpture I can be more understand that it doesn't mean every bad people don't have good sides and so the beautiful one also have their own bad hiding in themselves.
