Given the effect of light source and The chosen style would come from the heart of the person drawing and what they are good at and like. Some artist likes to draw in depth of the drawing verse just sketching of the picture. Every artist has a different conceptive on what they do. What were your initial thoughts? Compare and balance them with what you have learned about the artist and their respective periods in art.?
Drawing Fauve style was a new experience, and it allowed me to let go and put all my emotions into the painting, rather than make everything perfect. There were many steps in our big project, and the first step on painting our fauve portrait was to get the proportions right (making sure our eyes were big enough and spaced out enough, looking where our hair starts, how thick our neck should be, how long our nose should be). So we started to do some realistic drawing and sketching to improve our skills. We first sketched with a lead pencil and drew a rough portrait of a person with perfect proportions. Then, we drew another one, but this time it was a self-portrait and we used a mirror to aid us in drawing ourselves.
In the painting there are intense colors show and the Expressionism is linking with Fauvism and making a great influence on the painting. Everyone in the picture seems to have a purpose and a task as to doing something whether it is going to work, or shopping, or just walking around. One of the members of Die Brucke was Emil Nolde who was also a member of the German expressionist painters. He was known for
I have never been a very artsy person, but I do love looking/watching art. Many people may just consider drawing and painting art if they do not have any formal knowledge of exactly what art is. I view art as a very wide variety of things. I believe art is all around us, and it takes many different forms that may not be considered art by some people. I believe that if a person has a special talent that they can show off to the world, the talent can be considered art.
“As a creature of habit, my art is where I find my spontaneity. I take a reactive process by allowing the medium to do the 'talking': I splatter paint around aimlessly then later paint the images I see in the random composition, as if viewing a rorschach inkblot test. My work is heavily driven by emotion, the things I've read, heard, or experienced, and what it means to be human. I am constantly on a search to find a happy medium: between the
Growing so much with every class that I take especially ones where Dr. Winter was the professor. Dr. Winter is the reason I ended up staying at LR for all four years. Not only was he my professor but outside of class he was a friend and advisor whom wanted the best for me and did all he could to get the best out of me. Coming in to college I had never had experience with things such as painting on canvas or the use of Photoshop. Four years later I’m sitting in the art building working on my final series for Painting 3.
Focusing on Visual Strategies Lynda Barry’s “Common Scents” is a very interesting essay in that it is organized in comic book form. “Why would she write it this way?” crossed my mind frequently while I was reading this, until I imagined it written in the traditional-Microsoft-Word fashion. Writing in a comic book style can completely immerse the reader into another world, but it also has its limitations. This essay would lose a pretty big chunk of meaning if it were written in a standard way, incorporating pictures literally completes the picture. Comic books captivate readers and get the message across a lot easier than regular books do.
Napoleon Bonaparte said “A picture is worth a thousand words.” A picture, a canvas, a sculpture are all kinds of art. Art is for most artists a way to express themselves, a way to show what they feel, a way to share what they see, and also a way to inspire us to see more than what they draw, write or sculpt. Artists have different ways to work. Some try to be fantastic, romantics that can make us dream; others try to be as realistic as they can to make us think. The last group is the one I consider Augustus Saint-Gaudens to be part of.
I also love getting lost in the brushstrokes with the aid of my music. However the best part about painting is the overall sense of pride I feel when I finish a painting. It’s the same feeling I get when I score the winning goal or get an A on a quiz. These “hobbies” of mine have become my way of releasing my
The Encyclopædia Britannica Online defines art as "the use of skill and imagination in the creation of aesthetic objects, environments, or experiences that can be shared with others". By this definition of the word, artistic works have existed for almost as long as humankind: from early pre-historic art to contemporary art; however, some theories restrict the concept to modern Western societies. [4] The first and broadest sense of art is the one that has remained closest to the older Latin meaning, which roughly translates to "skill" or "craft." A few examples where this meaning proves very broad include artifact, artificial, artifice, medical arts, and military arts. However, there are many other colloquial uses of the word, all with some relation to its etymology.
