Title: A Rhythmic Assignment: My Artwork on Paper
"I'm excited to share my latest piece, 'Musical Instruments,' which I created for a recent class assignment. This work is a tribute to the beautiful sounds of the talking drum, sekere, flute, gourd, and tambourine.
For this project, I chose to work on paper, as its texture and versatility allowed me to focus on the fine details of each instrument. The assignment challenged me to go beyond simply drawing objects and to instead capture their essence and the stories they tell. It was a rewarding process to translate the vibrant, rhythmic sounds of these instruments into a static visual. I wanted the piece to feel alive with the energy of a live performance, even without a single note playing.
This assignment pushed me to grow as an artist, and it deepened my appreciation for the connection between art and culture. I hope you enjoy the final result and that it encourages you to look for the stories behind the sounds you hear."

Title: "Musical Instruments": From Classroom Concept to Creation
"I'm happy to finally share a finished piece from a recent class assignment: an artwork titled 'Musical Instruments.' This piece gave me the opportunity to study and depict the beauty of instruments from different traditions—specifically the talking drum, sekere, flute, gourd, and tambourine.
My choice to work on paper was a big part of the process. This medium allowed me to create precise lines and rich shading, capturing the unique character of each instrument, from the intricate patterns of the talking drum to the delicate shape of the flute. This was a valuable learning experience. My goal was to show their individual character while also creating a unified, harmonious whole.
This project helped me develop new skills and a deeper understanding of how art can reflect and celebrate cultural heritage. It was a journey of turning a school requirement into a passion project, and I'm proud of what I was able to create."
