Drowning Girl
The image I’ve chosen that inspires me is from Miharu Matsunaga. The whole composition relates to how I feel about design which is to just think out of the box. However, there is another image that comes to mind when. The artwork is by Roy Lichtenstein called Drowning Girl. The first image connects with the Lichtensteins’ image because when I see the word ‘think’ I think about my senior year of high school where the Drowning Girl was painted in my classroom wall of my computer class. That painting made me feel inspired to create so I started to learn how to use Illustrator. I started using photoshop and illustrator but whenever I looked at the Drowning Girl I felt the need to make my designs to my greatest potential. There were times where

    Art 101 Week 1 Assignment

    An artist can create art work through a creative process. An element of this process is critical thinking. Artists’ creativity process begins with seeing. It then goes from seeing to imagining and from imagining to making (Sayre, 2009). This essay will provide an explanation of artists’ roles. The essay will also include two chosen works of art, one of which embodies the role of the artist and the other holds symbolic significance requiring the application of iconography.…

    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.…

    What Is Janet Echelman Taking Imagination Seriously

    Lets take Janet's work for example. She had to use her imagination to overcome a challenge she had no control over. She first discovered the item that she would use and then used her imagination to fathom an art form unheard of. She used creativity to turn a net into a 3D geometrical shape that can change form at any given moment. She did not stop there. She had to create a way for her art to be permanent and unaltered by weather conditions. The initial imagination she had of the nets sparked her creativity to expand her projects and eventually lead her into trying different…

    Composers use distinctly visual images to visualise and allow us to understand the impact of human experiences.

    I gain clarity in my works by visualizing the problems and objectives through a series of moving images or short films as a result of my imagination. Visualizing my objectives allows me to take a consumer's perspective and gain insight on how my work may be interpreted. The solutions I gain from my imagination will determine what medium I use to create the final product. Whether the medium used is a short motion graphic, photography, hand-drawn illustration, or the physical product itself, every aspect of a project is critically examined to enhance the experience. Thorough research is also reflected in how the graphic design such as colour, typography, and composition weave back to support the story being…

    Art II: Final Portfolio Analysis

    However, my overall favorite, and in my opinion my most successful work is my spill drawing. Throughout the process of creating my piece, I focused on the realistic properties of my piece as well as the overall effect of the piece as a whole. While drawing, I paid attention to all the details. I kept a picture of a real eye close by, which I referenced multiple times and was therefore able to create a more realistic looking piece. In order to create a realistic looking piece, I had to focus on many different techniques while drawing. By using a picture as a reference, I was able to better recreate the values and details, and therefore creating a realistic drawing. For example, I paid close attention to the value and shading around the eye itself. Along with paying attention to value and details, my technique also significantly impacted how I went about drawing. For me, as well as most artists, the use of blank space is just as important as the penciled in part. For instance, I erased part of the iris of the eye in order to create a reflection, which in turn made it look more realistic. Overall, my spill drawing is my favorite and most successful work that I have created over this past semester. By focusing on value, shading, and precise details I was able to create a realistic drawing that I am proud to call my…

    Art Regents

    Throughout the course of my junior year, I have been challenged to be the best artist of my ability. As a graphic designer, I have learned to view things in a different light and learned to express my creativity. Although I am still learning new things everyday about how to become a better artist, I have improved tremendously in every way ranging from the thought process all the way to finalizing each project, and I think that as the days go by I will continue to do well in my high school graphic design career, but in continuing my education in this major and working in a field closely related to it. I have produced at least 5 projects that reflect my passion for graphic design including the New York World’s Fair, currency recreation, and the handmade film poster from the first semester of my junior year and from the second half up until my most recent project, a book jacket, and an organic drink package design.…

    Jealousy: The Consequences Of Loving Art

    The rough, yet smooth texture of a canvas knocks down all boundaries and only leaves room for creativity. The line from the tip of my pencil is not just nonsense; every drawing is representation of me and everything that I feel at a given moment. Through art, I have learned how this life isn't always pretty blue skies, and ceramic vases. It is purple skies with an orange hue, tornadoes in perfect weather, grimaces and tears, and so much more that words cannot convey, which is why I draw. Through art, I have learned that with the frustration and failures, there is reward in forms of pride and satisfaction of taking a step back and admiring my own…

    College Admissions Essay: Simply Influenced My Life

    As I attempted to perfect my drawing and painting skills in high school, I slowly realized through more serious art classes that I was taking that the conceptual ideas behind your work can say much more than just a simple, beautifully painted picture. More than anything, art is about sending a message. Thinking about the ideas behind your work is the most crucial part in discovering who you are as an artist. For me, I want to make art inspired by what I’ve been through, things that I have experienced first-hand and felt so strongly in my lifetime: things like fear, love, heartbreak, feeling alive, feeling lost, feeling connected to the world. I want to visually depict emotion in my art, and use it to help other people know that they’re not alone in the ways they feel and things they go through. When I think about what I want to do for the rest of my life, the mark I want to make on the world, all I know is that I want to talk about all of these elements of life. I want to make people think about them. I want to pull them apart, and try to make some sense of them. This realization was liberating- and I discovered a much more intense passion for art as a…

    Personal Narrative-College Essay

    I remember the first time I created art. I was seven years old and I was already in the midst of learning about myself. The pencil crayons felt like paint brushes as I let my inner artist run wild. I felt like Matisse himself even though I had no idea who that was at the time. I drew a rose and an off-coloured clownfish that looked more like Tiger. Although the things I drew had no significance, the idea of creating something captivated me ever since. I practiced baking to settle my need for creation and ended up falling in love with the hobby; baking is what fulfilled my need for creation and decoration. I still satisfy my need for art by occasionally visiting the Art Gallery of Ontario or drawing silly sketches the on scrap pieces of paper…

    Since I was old enough to hold a crayon, I have wanted to be an artist. The desire to create has grown exponentially with time, and so I attended the University of Iowa to expand my creative capabilities and learn from the work of experienced faculty and other students. Through my studies, I quickly learned a traditional fine arts education focused on technique. However, I learned the strength of my art resided in the conceptualization of my own story and emotions…
