More Shadow Art





I love the idea of shadow art because the artist can take something that is not very aesthetically pleasing and create something beautiful.  The bottom two pieces are made from materials that you could find in a trash can, but the shadows created are unbelievable.  The top piece is my favorite by Rashad Alakbarov because it adds the extra aspect of colors in the shadow on the wall.  To see more you can visit http://www.catinwater.com/2012/08/21/rashad-alakbarov-paints-with-shadows-and-light/.

  2. I cannot even wrap my head around how they do that. It probably takes foreeevvvver to align everything perfectly.

  3. I love how the artist had to actually take time to create this. The artist couldn't just throw this all together and hope that he would get these images out of it.

  5. I love this! It's so cool! I can't imagine the patience it takes to get it perfect but the payoff is definitely worth it!

  6. I absolutely love shadow art! I especially like the first two images. I love how the first one keeps the similar colors of the actual piece and displays it in the shadow. I also liked how the second image kept the symmetrical detail in the shadow.

  7. Shadow art is the type of art that makes people think. It makes you question the construction of the piece. I love this!

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Speed Painting

This a painting made in Photoshop by a guy who goes by the name " The Concept Painter " on Youtube. He does lots of Photoshop speed painting videos and also air brush videos. This particular painting took him 3.5 hours to complete and was made using a drawing tablet similar to the ones we use in our class.

Another Comic Book Artist (Woo!): Annie Wu

 If you have talked to me for more than one minute, I am a huge nerd. So, I am making another post about comic book artists. This time it's Annie Wu. She's a comic book artists who lives in Chicago, and is one of my inspiration artists for my sustained investigation. A lot of her work is dramatic with deep and dark lines with bold colors which is makes style perfect for where I first found her work. I first saw her work in the Black Canary book in 2017. Eventually, I will talk about Marvel comic book artists, but not today. If you want to check out more of her work, here is her website:  https://www.anniewuart.com/
