This year I took AP Studio Art, which meant I had to use a theme for the artwork I would make over the course of the year. I chose the 12 Zodiac Signs. Each of these are hand made with watercolor pencils, ink, and brush. I'll be submitting these as part of my AP portfolio this month!

Edit: For further clarification - Each of these signs reflect the personalities of people I have met that belong to these signs. For example, Capricorn is holding a pipe, and to me this symbolizes wisdom and experience, two traits that I have seen many people under the Capricorn sign having.

Which one/ones do you like the best? I greatly appreciate feedback! By the way, I'm curious to see how others would rate this according to AP's standards, so I added a poll that reflects how AP grades these.

I don't know whether your portfolio is analog or digital, but if it's digital you can tweak some Signs to match the brightness and saturation (The Taurus for example) of the others. Otherwise I think they're nice and unique. Good job and keep it up! :hug:

EDIT: Nice touch with The Leo, with the signs hanging on the wall.

Thank you very much, and yes this is because I am a Leo (born on August 6th) so I thought it would be cool to draw the Leo as the artist of these Zodiac Signs :)

You have a unique art style and the colors are so appealing! All of them are well done but I like Pisces the most. By the way, you said that each of the signs reflect the personalities of the people you've met, so I'm just curious, does Gemini and Libra depict the same meaning? They both look like they have bipolar disorder to me.

Nice drawings, very impressive since done by hand. Although I don't really care for the style.

Seems my thumb can't hit like today Zzz

Thank you! My art teacher also told me that out of these, Pisces was my best work. Gemini's have very conflicting personalities in my experience, so they would be described as bipolar to me. Libras on the other hand are more "balanced" without necessarily having conflict within themselves. So out of the two, Geminis are more bipolar while Libras are more cooperative and balanced.

Thank you, I try to use a personalized and unique style, but I guess I can't please everybody :(
