My Notan Design Analysis
When I'm looking at my Notan design I see the ocean. I used, of course, blue paper to show the color of the water. and mysterious. When people looked at my artwork I wanted them to question what they're looking at and put the pieces together to actually come to the conclusion that they're looking at what's in the sea with all of the shapes and cut outs I included, because I know the ocean isn't just one simple ordinary thing. Which is why I tried to represent that in the shapes. For example, almost all of my shapes are unusual but when you look closely at it, you’ll realize that one shape is a fish the other is seaweed etc.

I used positive space by drawing and cutting out certain shapes to represent what's in the ocean and what you can conclude

    Meghann's Littoral Drift

    In Meghann’s exhibit, “Littoral Drift,” all of her images had to do with the same thing, waves and water at the beach. In her exhibition she had about twelve paintings. All of her paintings I noticed had the color blue and represented the ocean. They were all placed separately, given a chunk of space between each picture. I thought that was smart because none of the paintings would be able…

    My favorite animals are Dolphins and whales and it is because of that love that this photo caught my eye the most. Ever since I was a little girl I loved the ocean and I wanted to be a marine biologist so I could work closely with those beautiful animals. The artworks I tend to be attracted to are that of dolphins and whales and of oceanic scenery. To look at the photograph of the humpback whale, captured in his natural habitat, it looks like a peaceful and serene atmosphere. The whale was beautifully captured in action during his swim. I feel the light that is shining through the ocean surface is illuminating the whale in his dive because around the whale, on the edges, are dark and black; only the whale is brightly shining. Then I looked into the whales’ eye and I felt a kind of loneliness and it looked like the whale was sad. I do not know if there were other whales with him but in his eye it looked like he was sad and lonely and wanted a friend. Wayne Levin’s “diving Humpback Whale” photograph, and his other works, gives us a look into their world and I feel that the black and white genre gave a more detailed look of the whale. The black and white color makes it seems timeless and…

    There are mostly organic lines with varying lengths. The wave looks like one long curved line and then the smaller ripples in the ocean decrease in length as they come closer but are also wavy. This contrasts with the straight line in the trunk of the palm tree. You can also see the vertical lines from the surface of the cardboard. Despite cutting into the cardboard, there are only 2D shapes. I manipulated the positive and negative shapes through intuitive perspective. Occlusion is visible with the big wave and the palm tree covering the rest of the ocean. Texture gradient and relative height on ground plane are both seen in the ripples of the ocean. The wavelength of the ripples decrease the farther back it goes and they get higher on the ground plane the farther back they get in order to give the ocean distance. I chose to paint everything it’s local color, the ocean is blue, the sun is yellow, the palm fronds are green, and the cloud is white. There are various tints of the primary colors and a couple secondary colors. The ocean and wave is monochromatic but with multiple values. I made the value scale of blue on the wave to make it stand out from the rest of the ocean. The white on the crest puts emphasis on the wave because it is more saturated than the rest of the colors. I used analogous hues for the sun with the red, orange, and yellow. The…

    Hokusai vs JMW Turner

    Oceans of Wisdom is a landscape narrative in a way because it is showing the importance of fishing, the ocean and whaling for the culture. It is a multicolored woodblock print done with very bright cool toned colors. The gradual change in the colors in some areas were done with a dotted effect especially seen around the whale with the blue and the white. The texture of the painting seems very rough and a lot of fine lines are used to define space. Not a lot of shading with gradual change in color is used to give dimension, giving the piece a very flat look.…

    Impressionism In Art

    In the following picture, there are various artistic elements and formats. In the background and foreground of the image, it is a neutral color scheme, consisting of whites and browns. In the center of the picture, you will see three basketballs floating in a straight line in an underwater tank. This sculpture really gives the image an architectonic feel. First off the table that is holding the tank is made up of linear lines and the tank is also made up of linear lines which makes the geometric shape of a rectangle. The bold lines around the tank are the contour lines. Inside the tank, it gives the viewer an attectonic feel due to the basketballs inside. The basketballs are made up of curvilinear lines and each ball has a type of writing on, which I will talk about later. The middle basketball brings out the complementary colors, which are orange and blue. The tank is a three-dimensional figure. All in all, this image brings something to the art world.…

    Conceptually there are a variety of ideas I would like to explore in relation to sea animals in order to express the beauty beneath nature. When I encounter the natural environment I aim to glance past the negativity such as pollution, poverty, over population and natural disasters but focus on the hidden beauties of our planet which are usually forgotten yet destroyed. The society we live in is fixated on artificial things, everywhere we look, we see man made machines and gadgets. In a world that has been consumed by electronics and artificial things we can often forget to take the time to appreciate the natural environment which surrounds us. As a society we depend on our eyes, we don’t use our mind’s eye to view things. In reality we are limited to what we can see and what is displayed in the media. Why live in this world where we are limited, when we can create our own world full of possibilities. Every time an oil spill into the ocean, every time we cut down trees, let us not forget we are destroying the most cherished inheritance we can leave behind for our future generation. In creating my artwork I hope to uncover the beauties of nature from a different perspective in order to send out awareness to save the marine life animals.…
