The Power of Surrealism and Reality

By Anonymous

                                                                            Miles Johnston

Miles Johnston has constructed the bridge between realism and surrealism. He is a young artists that is pursuing his career in drawings/ illustrations. His work is very metaphorical and revolves around the structure and actions of human beings. He often takes the bodies of his drawn subjects and distorts their face or body. His tone is very dark and vintage. His main medium is graphite, which really adds to his overall aesthetic. This year Johnston was even published in the book Suggestivism Resonance, which features one of his newer pieces.

    Surrealism is such an interesting style, and I think it's so neat that a surreal artist can take a concept and run with it to produce something incredibly out of the ordinary.

    As a lover of surreal art, these pieces do not disappoint. They are very eye-catching and expressive. One does not simply look at these at a glance, one must gaze and ponder the idea behind it.

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

By
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

By Anonymous
 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/
