My drawing is titled “Under Surveillance”. It is meant to depict cyberphobia, the fear of computers. Cyberphobia can be developed through one’s personal history, one’s environment, and even one’s genetics. People with cyberphobia usually experience a strong sense of fear or discomfort when using or around computers. With this in mind, I based my drawing off the movie The Ring by drawing the girl with the long hair reaching out from inside the computer. It was drawn only using graphite, charcoal, and a shading tool. The girl reaching out from the screen is supposed to represent how someone with cyberphobia may feel while using a computer.
It took me a lot of time to come up with ideas and I was unsure if I would finish in time. I would have liked to make the computer screen wider to draw more attention to it. Still, I liked that I was able to make the girl look creepy and eerie. Though I wish I could have added more details, I believe I was able to convey the fear within the image well. Overall, I am happy with how my drawing came out.
