My 2020 Reflections (art competition)

This year I entered a pretty piece of artwork into the Reflections program. I got a good score and I tried my hardest and my hard work paid off. (I am not trying to brag)

The theme for reflections from 2019-2020 is look within. Things like looking within a bottle are looking through a window could count.

I titled my picture “My Big Heart”. In my picture I drew me holding a heart and around me there was 3 bigger hearts. In those hearts there are kind deeds that I have done before. I think it relates to the theme because I am looking within my heart.

The section of me holding a heart is the best part in my opinion. It is a really pretty picture of me with a tie-dye shirt. The heart is red with chalk around it so it is like it shines.  My eyes were closed and it looked like I was happy and relaxed.

 The first heart had me helping a boy with his multiplication homework. I am teaching him how to do it so he will understand it. Behind us are a bookshelf and a window. But I have to say that the boy I drew looks like a pigeon or bird.

The second heart was the biggest. It took place at the park and there are 3 characters. The first character is me, the second character is my sister Yanna, the last person is a sad and lonely girl. In this heart I saw a sad girl sitting by a tree and I wanted to play with her. When I went over there my sister was really surprised that her mouth was wide open. I went over to play and help the girl and then she smiled.

The last heart is the most important to me. It takes place at a field with a couple trees. There are again 3 characters. They are me, a bully, and a small girl. The heart has me protecting the girl by shooing the bully away. The girl hides behind me but peeks out. After I shoo the bully away he is sad/mad but the girl is happy.

The awards I won are: 1^st place for bellflower school district and 1^st place for 33^rd school district. Because I won 1^st place at the 33^rd school district, I am competing against the state.

In my opinion this picture is the best picture I have ever entered into a contest. It is very pretty and all the hearts have white chalk and glitter around them. I only wish that the boy I drew for the homework help would not look like a bird.
