If you could not see my art the first things you would see is a slot machine, a UFO with an alien in it, cows on money and a golden beam coming from the UFO. I created this art using charcoal, color pencil, chalk pastel and oil pastel. The green background is chalk pastel, the cows are color pencil and charcoal, the alien and UFO are made of colored pencil and charcoal, the slot machine is colored pencil and charcoal and the golden beam is made of chalk pastel and oil pastel. The idea of this artwork came from my love for spending money at the casino. I was inspired by one of my favorite games to put my money in to. My main idea was to show how addicting slot machines are and how much money myself and others spend there. I showed this by having the slot machine in the golden beam as it gives attention to it in a way that makes it almost mesmerizing. My goals for this artwork were to use multiple materials and to explore how to better use chalk pastels. My overall thoughts about my artwork are pretty good. I enjoyed doing this artwork and it was fun to relate it to something I can relate to. If I were to change something about my art I would fix the way the slot machine looks. Instead of colored pencil I would try also doing it in chalk pastel so then the color would be darker and there would be less lighter space.

Two studio habits I have used so far are engage and persist and express. I have been engaging and persisting by finding different ways to create this artwork. When it came to the cow money, there were a few ways I tried out before finally finding a way I wanted to do them. I have been using express because the idea of this artwork has come from the amount of time I spend at the casino. I am trying to express that by having the slot machine so large with one of my favorites game themes behind it.
