I think that my mask is symbolic because of the two masks that I painted on as my design. One mask is overlapping the other, and I painted them two different colors. The two masks are meant to represent how I have two different personalities or two ways of conducting myself based on where I am or how I am feeling. I think that everyone has two sides to them and by me trying to convey my two sides, in way shows my way of thinking.
I chose blue and red as the two colors for the masks that I painted on. Blue is to represent how I really am on the inside; very quiet, reserved and to myself but to a point where it makes me really observant. Also very patient and calm and I thought that blue was a color that really expresses those characteristics. I chose red because it really stands out to me and it’s the exact opposite of blue and I think that’s how I have to be most of the time. If to me, blue represents calmness, quietness etc… then I can’t always be like that because I would get nowhere and I think that red really counters all of those characteristics and I feel myself trying to act the way red makes me feel a lot of the times, which is outgoing, opinionated which is why I picked that color. On the mask, red outweighs the blue which is an exact representation of how I am. |
