This picture seeks to represent my passion for sports. The word "sports" encompasses too large a category, hence I thought it would be approprite to narrow it down to a theme that is more specific. I chose "ballgames". Similar to the beach drawing, I feel that no one ball game, or merely the juxtaposition of different balls (golf, basketball, tennisball etc...) could convey the message. With this in mind, I included the equipment which is used for playing ball games too. These include hockey stick and a squash racket. I hope that a more "holistic" feel of ball games could be communicated to the viewers, and that they can participate actively when viewing my completed artwork by thinking and looking beyond that of sports equipment and balls... To perhaps something more abstract like the "spirit of playing sport", that this picture reminded them the time when they won a sports competition, the "feeling of victory"... Or simply "the joy of playing sports". This theme is easier to design than the beach, given the versatility of balls and sports equipment to form different alphabets. Similar to the beach artwork, I sketched it in pencil and subsequently copied it into my computer and touched it up with freehand software.
