There are two elements in my design. One is the text, and the other is the logo. The topic of design is “MAN power”, so I think the two elements must give a sense of strength, making people feel the power of my design. The overall logo should be vigorous, so I used the guideline to make a triangular shaped “man power”. Later in the selection of image, I found out that this image suited to the theme. The combination of the image and texts can show this sense of power suitably.

黑色是我原稿的基础颜色，因为黑色能用于 所有 logo，毫无违和感。红色，代表激情， 因为是健身房的 logo，所以激情是必不可少 的。

背景红色，logo 白色，这个是可口可乐 logo 的颜色。之所以选择这个，是因为大家都已 经狠熟悉可口可乐的标志和色彩了，所以放 在一家健身房中，会给人一 种亲切、熟悉的感觉，看起 来也很舒服，很和谐。 灰色浮雕，这个 logo 是浮 雕型的，如果应用到健身 房的墙上或门上，会与健 身房很好的融合进去，而 且能让人感受到坚毅。 9
Black was my first choice, because black can be used for every logo. Red represents passion, which is an essential element in a gym. Coca Cola’s logo has a red background and white image. The reason for choosing this is that everyone is familiar with Coca Cola, so this logo will give a comfortable and harmonious feeling to people in the gym. This is a grey relief, if we put this in the walls or doors will compromises it and gym. The gym will make people feel firm and persistent.

Just a still life drawing I practiced during my AS coursework development. The details of the drawing make the orange authentic. However, some people told me that it looks like a mangosteen.
A watercolor painting, but on canvas. The tone of fruits and vegetables is signified by multilayer paint and color pencils. Since the texture of canvas can not hold watercolor paint very well, I added some salt on it to emphasize those key points.
SPLASH 2013 I finished this piece by collaging and painting. The tone of the fruits is built up by the nuance of magazine pieces which took me a long time. The cloth background is expressed by real lace, and I painted on it to make it three dimensional.

CHINESE ART IN MR HARLEY’S EYES All works provided by Mr. Harley Portrait by S2C4 Albert Zhang
I saw this man at a village outside of Beijing and even though he was a poor farmer who obviously worked hard, he still hard the ability to laugh. And when he laughed he used every part of his face to express his emotion. I love to make portraits that tell us something about who the person is or what they think. This picture was done with a range of media such as tea, pencil, paint, ink and charcoal... whatever came to hand I used.
SPLASH 2013 Portraits are my favorite subjects, especially portraits of people doing their everyday activities, and preferably without being conscious of the camera. The boy was polling a boat down the river in Yangzhou and even though he knew I was taking a photo, he did not alter his expression. Being in black and white, the image has a timeless quality.

and decay.
On Saturday mornings I learn traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. I really like this style of painting, but it is difficult and different to western painting. Holding the brush is different and it is difficult to achieve a free and effortless action without countless hours of practice.
I decided to recycle some of my practice calligraphy papers so I glued them together to form a substratum where the text was sandwiched between layers of paper. I saw this man's photo in a magazine and liked his weathered, worn but complacent face. I used traditional inks and brushes to 'draw' the man, but then I built up a greater sense of tone in the face.

My Confidence There is far less painting or drawing experiences for me to narrative, mainly because several years before, I rarely did art. The reason why I was determined to learn drawing was that my classmates had often humiliated me because I could not draw well. Due to my anger and indomitable attitude, I wanted to prove that I was not as stupid as my classmates described. Without a priori talent on art, I could only use my diligence to compensate this. Though I had to give up drawing to concentrate on studying and other areas, I was cultivated to be quiet and patient while doing art during those two years of learning the basic skills of art and having intensive practicing. I was so concentrated at that moment that I could settle at a place and draw for more than six hours.

对于当代社会，艺术的种类与形式过于繁复，“everything could be art”正 在被越来越多的人所接受；在当今的世界，突破艺术的瓶颈是极其困难的，因 为很多东西已经被实践过无数次了，并且越来越多的人也可以通过电子技术来 展现内心的幻想。现今的社会拼的更多的不是死板的技术，而是阅历、创意、 细心与坚持，不畏惧向别人学习，不畏惧因为破天的压力而放弃。所以与其在 那里守株待兔，等待着别人的开导与教诲，不如立马行动并努力坚持下去。

I am so delighted that since then I have discovered my confidence in many small achievements. Although I was busy during my junior school time, I still did one or two practices per year to ensure my fundamental techniques. After transferring from main school to ICC, I found it a great platform for me to keep my steps in drawing and re-picking my hobby. After the intense study at the main school, I can finally relax myself then and do some art pieces. Even though now I cannot paint as good as I did before, I am still enthusiastic to do art and I have downloaded more than forty thousand artwork from the Internet throughout the past whole year. And what’s more, I try to return to my habit of musing about the entire cosmos, as it is also a quite good way to expand personal ideas of art.

在暑假里，我们接触了 5 名在北京被领养的玉树灾区孤儿，都是上小学四年级。在这短暂的时间里，我 们带他们以做手工、看展览、摄影等方式让他们对艺术有一定了解。 In the summer vacation, we got along with five ten-year-old orphans from Yushu, Qinghai who now live in Beijing after the earthquake. In the limited time, we helped them to be more familiar with art by handcrafting, visiting exhibition and photo shooting.

Before meeting them, we did not have a clue on how to treat them adequately. But our worry turned out to be unnecessary. Although they came from a different environment from ours, they still retain simple state of mind like normal kids.
欣赏是人天生的一种能力，不分年龄，不分性别，不分地域。艺术是人们都可以沉浸其中而获得 感动的东西。 The ability to appreciate art is what we have got by nature, regardless of age, gender and culture. The power of art is what that can infect and touch everyone.
