Exploration Question: What if my soul could speak?

Work Plan

Koralys De La Cruz

Experiment One

The eyes to my soul (2026)

Does this piece match your intended aesthetics?

This piece does not look the way I want it to yet because after sketching I am torn between creating something abstract or more concrete. I want it to connect to the title of the piece, however throughout the week I am also debating on whether I should change the title aswell. Finally, these sketches demonstrate how my intent is to include a woman that represents me and my soul in some way/form.

Does this piece work the way you intended?

No. It does not because I want to add more color and use different materials as I reach the final piece. I intend to use a canvas and acrylic paint.

Experiment Two

The Eyes to my Soul (2026)

Does this piece match your intended aesthetics?

This piece looks the way I wanted it to in its size and aesthetic. I think it conveys what I want it to while also leaving room for interpretation.

Does this piece work the way you intended?

Yes! I think this piece transmits the themes I wanted to share of solitude, growth, and the gray areas that life throws at us.
