Concentration Questions

What is the central idea of your concentration?
The central idea of my concentration is a focus on reflections in water using exaggerated colors. Overtime, it has also grown into an abstraction of reflections. 

How does the work in your concentration demonstrate the exploration of your idea? You may refer to specific images as examples. When referencing specific images, please indicate the image numbers.

All of my pieces are paintings of reflections in water. In the beginning, my pieces were much more literal. They showed the objects that were being reflected and it was pretty clear what they were. As I continued to work, my pieces began to focus much more on solely the reflection, making my concentration much more obvious in my work. My pieces also began to be much more abstract as I tried to focus more on the reflections themselves rather then what was being reflected. I've also tried to push and exaggerate my use of colors throughout all of my pieces, making many of them very vibrant. 

Update on my Concentration

Hi guys! I don't have a picture of any of my pieces with me and the ones I really need the most help with are at school, so I'll just have to explain them. The first one I feel that I need to work on the one of a foot/leg reflected in a puddle. I never really got very much feedback on it, and I'm curious to hear what you guys think. I feel like it doesn't look finished and is a bit flat. The other one I didn't love was one of my last concentration pieces. It has a lot of orange and red in it, and the whole painting is a reflection. It's very abstract, but I'm not sure if it's finished or not. If anyone wants me to show them these two pieces at school tomorrow in order to give me feedback, I can do that too. Sorry I don't have pictures, but I didn't know I would need them!
