Working with light and contrast



When we visited the Taft Museum I chose a piece to do my project on a piece that had a lot of contrast. That piece inspired me because of the interesting choice of lighting along with the placement of the body.  My piece that I'm creating off of that is going to be an image with very high contrast as well. Here's some images that I really like the look of. I will be working with lighting and placement just like the artist of the painting.

  1. I love the shadows in these pictures and the contrast between light and shadow areas.

  2. These are beautiful I especially love the way the shadows fall and cover the features of the woman in the second picture

  3. I love how the shadows add more feelings to each picture like how the artist wanted the viewers to feel about it.

  4. I think it's cool to see the light emphasizing a different part of the body in each piece. I also like how the artist used different age groups of for models for variety.

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/
