Hi all, Katrina Kessler here. For this week's blog post, I decided to not post about conventionally beautiful art, but the dark, angsty side of things. The unrefined style and messy method of these pieces stick out to me and make me think. They dig into your inner shadow (going T Hicks here) and bubble emotions up from the back of your mind and to the surface. They're all thought provoking and visually intriguing, leaving the interpretation up to the viewer and using the dark quality of charcoal to create dramatic contrast.

  1. I really like these because I feel like you have to look at them for a second to be able to make out what they are but once you see what the artist was trying to portray you can really appreciate the work that was put into these to show the deeper meaning behind them.

  2. These pictures are so dark and twisty, I love it! They all have such a powerful emotion to them that make you want to analyze them! So cool!!

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.

Malena Bozzini         Malena Bozzini is a sophomore college student studying psychology. As her passion she is an artist. Her work is so original and abstract in order to dramatize her figures. She creates art out of emotion and uses her feelings to choose color and shape. One of the most interesting facts is that all of her pieces are done with colored pencils. Her art is so expressive that each piece gives out its own vibe. What makes her art unique is that it is inspired by motion and gestures. It is amazing how she developed such a style at such a young age.  Instagram @ malenabozzini

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/
