Major Project: Initial Ideas

 It is my main project in Digital Arts. This time i would like to create a series of digital artworks using my ipad pro. The only guidelines I have are:

“Fine Art encompasses all kinds of traditional and digital skills. For this project, you can use photography or digital drawing/painting software to create a collection of work on a strong theme. This can then be a gallery portfolio on your website.”

I will draw something. I have never drawn figures or landscapes in digital form before. It should be a collection of images. The only thing that comes to mind is a collection of images about strong emotions. 


Emotions have been with us forever 
–Oscar Wilde”




 Tears come from the heart and not from the brain. Leonardo da Vinci(BrainyQuote 2024)


Emotions are very importat in our lifes and a lot of people dont know how to contol their emotions.. A lot  of things influance this such as food ,environment , people aroud us,and our thoghts as well. 


“If your emotional abilities aren’t in hand, if you don’t have self-awareness, if you are not able to manage your distressing emotions, if you can’t have empathy and have effective relationships, then no matter how smart you are, you are not going to get very far.” – Daniel Goleman (Paula, 2020)



I could also draw people from different environment:









On the other hand , I could always draw the four seasons.


Alternatively, the stages of human growth for example, as a child , as an adult, and as an old person. Furthermore, it could be three states of life of a plant or an animal… Or three different landscapes, for example desert, jungle, icy land. Or also city, village, forest.


* After some consideration, I decided on the idea of the “Life Cycle.” I could create a series of digital paintings including of about 4 - 6 digital painting. I could make it in two ways:

1. The first would showing of drawing a character in different stages of life in each image.

Actually, I could draw myself as a baby when I was born, then as a teenager, as an adult, and how I see myself in the future as an older man, and finally in a coffin or cremated in an urn.


(After thinking about it for a moment, drawing myself would be a good idea. It would show how things were, how they are, and how they will be, along with changes in the environment and the most important stages. I’m not sure yet how the timing will work out, but with this project, I could create more images.)


2. The second would showing of all the life cycles in a single image, for example, one showing the life cycle of a woman, another showing the life cycle of a man, and a third mixing both or in the third one, I could show the life cycle of a plant or an animal.


I have never painted digitally before, but I would like to use an ipad and the procreate software for this. I started using the ipad at the beginning of 2024. I want to learn to use procreate to its full potential because one of my hobbies is tattooing, and I know that mastering this app will be useful in my future career as a tattoo artist.

  1. Good that you have added your initial ideas - there could be more commentary as to why you have chosen any of these things as that is not clear
