Next, we use Shao Cheng's drawing as the final drawing on the chair. The things that circle need to take our because Mr Vinod said no need too much visual. Therefore, we decided to replace the visual drawing with a line drawing.

This week, Ashley, Xin Thien and I painted the chair with white coating as a base so that we could easy to draw and paint on the chair and dry it under the sun.

After completely dry, start to sketch based on the digital artwork done by Shao Cheng. It was kind of difficult to draw exactly as Shao Cheng's drawing style. Hence, we draw it in our way but similar to it.

REFLECTIONS
Experience
In this final project, everyone divided the work equally and cooperate without any conflict. Besides, I also get the opportunity to interact with teammates during painting the chair. It was been a long time I never talk and work with teammates face to face. Therefore, I appreciate that this final task has given me an opportunity to make friends.
Observation
In this final task, I found out that painting our ideas on a chair was quite challenging. During sketching the chair, we faced a few problems like the pencil sketches made the chair look dirty and the part have to be resketch again. Secondly, the colouring on the chair was not easy as I thought because sometimes we paint unevenly, some lines are too thick and some lines too thin. But overall we still manage to fix the problem.
Findings
I found out that everyone is good at sketching their ideas, especially Xin Thien and Shao Cheng. They both have come out with good ideas for artwork. But based on what Mr Vinod said, "People buy art because of the story behind it. Either they buy art because of the story behind the artist or they buy art because of the story behind the art." The message is more important than the art itself. Therefore, we have improved our artwork. The colour we decided on is based on our Malaysia flag and the pattern is based on our Malaysia pandemic situation.
