    Reproduction Businesses of Thomas Kinkade's Painting

    Muroc Field History

    The first major aerial activity occurred at Muroc in 1937 when the entire US Army Air Corps participated in a large-scale maneuver. From then on, the bombing range grew in size. When Arnold became chief of the air corps in 1938, the service was given a renewed focus on research and development. Muroc Field drew attention because the nearby dry lake was so flat. Arnold described it as “level as a billiard table” that it could serve as a giant runway, ideal for flight testing. Over $120 million was spent to develop the base in the 1940s and expand it to 301,000 acres (470 square miles) The base’s main runway, fifteen thousand feet long and three hundred feet wide, was completed in a single pour of concrete.…

    Max Dupain and Anne Zahalka

    Max Dupain’s image is a documentary style photograph which has become an Australian Icon. The image represents all we believe is associated with the bronzed Aussie. This is a relaxed image of the strong sculptured Adonis, comfortable, if not commanding in his environment, lying in the sun. The identity, we are left in no doubt, is masculine. The composition and framing show the ‘beautiful chiselled body’ dominating the landscape, in a care free, effortless manner. The image is represented as a true document of life, an everyday scene captured on Dupain’s Rolliflex. In true Modernist style Dupain has used the full frame for this image which also emphasises the ‘truth’ behind this image. The black and white fine grain film gives us a ‘true reality’ and once again reinforces the message that this is a ‘natural’ image. The Sunbaker has run out of the surf and flopped down in the sand, Dupain was there to capture this ‘moment in time’. The beads of water from the ocean are still glistening on the sunbaker’s skin. Dupain has carefully composed the image using the design elements and principles to ensure the focal point of the image is the triangular shape of the man which emphasises the feeling of strength and prosperity of his physique. The low camera angle and triangle composition all work to produce a well balanced, aesthetically pleasing image.…

    Introductory Paragraph: About Antony Gormley

    Antony Gormley was born in the summer of 1950 in London. He is one of the most unique, interesting and popular British sculptors alive. Gormley uses his sculptures as a way to investigate the human body. “With each new sculpture, comes another question”, says Gormley (CAROL VOGEL). Using measurements of his body, Gormley explores the relationship between himself and others by placing his large-scale sculptures in public places so people may interact with his work.Every sculpture that Gormley has made is more than six feet two inches in height. Some are made from fiberglass and usually placed on the rooftops weighing seventy to one hundred pounds each.…

    Norton Museum

    When taking a trip to the Norton Museum of Art I chose a one dimensioned painting called Adam that was located on the first floor. The artist is Nicholas Carone and was painted in 1956. To the left of the painting, Adam, was another painting named Personage which was painted by Robert Mothewell in 1943. Personage is an abstract oil painting on canvas with multiple different colors. To the right of Adam was a sculpture called Sea Quarry and was created by Theodore Roszak. The sculpture was not an obvious choice that it was a sea animal at first. I had to stand there for a minute and really look at the sculpture to being to see what it was really intended for the sculpture to be. Returning to my original choice, Adam by Nicholas Carone, it is also an oil painting done on canvas. Carone first started with a plane black picture and continued to manipulate it with white paint color and other lines using different thick and thin brushes. The picture was made to represent and recreate light and shadow but is opaque. It uses several different elements of art including color, value, line, shape, and space. “Adam”s composition is curved lines and is known as an Abstract Expressionism type of art.…

    Ron Mueck Artist Essay

    Some sculptures of the human form release a certain presence, feeling or emotion that they are more than just objects. Ron Mueck represents this concept or idea throughout his realistic sculptures. Ron Mueck is an Australian hyperrealist sculptor working in the United Kingdom. Formally a model-maker and puppeteer for children’s television and film, Mueck has been creating fine art sculptures of the human form since 1996. Using many materials such as; resin, fibreglass, silicone and even real hair particles. Mueck contrasts hyper realistic likeliness of human beings, whilst playing with scale.

The detailed sculptures are captivating when viewed up close, as they may be many times larger or smaller than expected. The audience’s reaction and response to Muecks work is unbelievable because these life-like sculptures look so real, like they could just come alive at any moment.

    Art Essay Hsc

    Artists throughout time are subjected to changing their practice due to context and issues within this time period. Artists that center around performance art, who use shock to convey their artworks, are subjected to change. Changes within the world inspire artists to create artworks that reflect these evolving aspects. Different developments in terms of practice have changed the world that we know. Advancements with technology, science and environment have influenced performance artists such pioneers in performance art Yves Klein, Stelarc and Ron Mueck who creates life like figures artworks that in their own way perform for the audience. These influences have shaped the performance artists practice, Klein’s use of monochrome art to represent the empty space surrounding the earth; the void, by using his own mix of the colour blue; Klein creates artworks to represent the empty space in the environment. In Klein’s later years he began to work with naked female models to create body prints. Likewise to stelarc’s use of incorporating technology within the body to make a hybrid or cyborg to reflect of what humans will become in the future, Stelarc looks at the body’s ability to expand or be altered as well as the mental capabilities of being fused with the cybernetic world. Technology has had a dramatic influence on Stelarc’s practice. Mueck creates life like sculptures often altering the size of the figures. Mueck’s use of creating grotesque, eerie life like sculptures shocks the audience, sometimes thinking that they would be real if they were the proper size ratio. Mueck’s art work ‘Dead Dad’ shocked audiences into believing that there could have been a real dead man lying on the floor. If the artwork were to be resurrected, friends and family would recognise the sculpture straight away, and to the…

    Mark Powell's Life

    Mark Powell's Life

    Ever since graduating, Mark Powell has had shows all across The United Kingdom and Europe as well. Both the canvas he uses and the faces he draws offer a mysterious story. They carry the scars of travel, a life lived. London based artist Mark Powell has a rather unusual way of practicing the art of drawing. Using antique envelopes as canvases, he draws incredibly vivid portraits of elderly people using only a biro pen. His artistic path is also an unconventional one just as his art, so we got in touch with him for an interview. Mark practiced art in high school after which he exchanged hundreds of jobs and places, to eventually end up being enrolled in university by pure accident. Although his steps have wondered in so many places, he didn’t stop drawing and after having seen so many different people from so many different background, he finally settled on this unique signature: biro pen drawings on old envelopes. As in many cases, art has proven to be a way of escape: When working the many jobs I have had I would draw landscapes and political cartoons by way of escape. Before that as a child I would copy Garfield and Asterix cartoons. Mark Powell’s sketches are more than merely doodles, though – as glancing at the intricacy of his facial illustrations demonstrates. According to his website, Mark is comfortable creating pieces with any tool, maintaining that he can “paint with anything”. One might wonder why Mark chose envelopes as medium of display for his art. There’s something about their history, scars, marks and used aspect that make them really authentic. Especially when it comes to antique envelopes. And since communication and art are going more and more digital these day, you might even ask if traditional letters are still being sent today. Here’s how Mark explains his fascination of first discovering antique envelopes: I was given an envelope that was sent from the front line of World War 1. It captivated me that this may have been the last…

    William Morris Wallpaper Design Formal Analysis

    The Arts and Crafts Movement began in the last decades of the 19th century. It was developed by the ideas and views of William Morris who was inspired by John Ruskin. William Morris was a dynamic and multi-talented man. His name is “indissolubly linked to wallpaper design” (William Morris & Wallpaper Design, [sa]). All his designs were made by hand and not machines because Morris believed that “the tastelessness of mass-produced goods and the lack of honest craftsmanship might be addressed by a reunion of art with craft” (Meggs and Purvis 1998:179).…
