Concentration #1
Critique:
1) I played around with the sky some more to develop greater contrast between it and the house.
2) I think I can use movement in the clouds and the waves of the ocean as well as balance between the blues of the sky and water and the browns of the house to create a more engaging design.
3) Yes, there is a focus on the principles of art to create a successful piece. It also follows along the idea of my concentration of creating landscapes. This landscape is of Croatia and will eventually be shown in contrast to American landscapes.
4) To take risks, I used mixed media and did a lot of layering. I really like the way this created texture.
5) I tried to show my personal vision by expressing what interested me so much in this landscape when I saw it and why it is still such a strong memory. I really like the architecture of the house and how the water came right up to it. I also liked how the sky and water seemed to meet in the distance.
This looks amazing Katharina- you did a good job adding more contrast between the sky and the house! :)

ReplyDelete1.What suggestions will you use to demonstrate an obvious and purposeful use of the elements and/or principles? If this project were to be turned in to the College Board today it should be very clear what element or principle of art the work focuses on.
2.How can you create a more engaging design using one or more of the principles of art?
3.Do you feel that your work demonstrates your idea (concept) while also creating an effective design using the elements and principles of art?
4.What did you try to do to create informed risk-taking within the parameters of the project? Think about what we have studied thus far in the year (this is where the artist should be moving beyond the basic mastery of concept and presenting the idea in a new way to take a risk).
5.Think about your personality and your personal vision for your artwork – what did you try to do that represents who you are through the parameters of this project (structure and the self-portrait)?
katharina- it turned out great. the texture of the building looks so ridiculously realistic. it amazes me. your colors are also so vivid and great!
ReplyDeleteyou did a great job using different shades of brown to distinguish the stones in the building.. they compliment the different shades of blue in the sky and water.. looks great.
ReplyDeletei like how the brown is offset by the briht shade od blue keep up the good work
