Critique Post For this critique I am working more on the line work that I had previously done for the first critique in the image with the fox. Josie told me to really try and work on combining the line work with the original image, so that is what I have tried to do. I came up with three different ways of combining the two techniques. The first is the photo with the humming bird. I decided to completely replace the humming bird with the white line work and place it on a black background. I am extremely happy with how it turned out. I am planning on working with other images to get the same look for our next critique. The next two images of the flowers are very similar to each other in the type of style and technique that I used with the line work. With the purple flower I left the background in place, since it wasn’t too distracting to the viewers eye. Have the white line work go over the image of the flower really flattens it out and brings out the shapes of color within the image. The yellow flower I decided to replace the background with solid black, because I wanted the main focus to be on the flower itself. By having the white line work it breaks down the flower into much simpler shapes, yet it still keeps the contrast of the flower petals noticeable. All three of these images are work in progress and I am looking for feedback on how to move forward from this point in my work. The last image that I have is based off of a tree sculpture at the Crystal Bridges Museum in Bentonville, Arkansas. Josie also wanted me to work with the tree a little bit more, just to see what I could do and come up with. I used the same techniques that I did with the fox image from the first critique, but this time I varied some of the line widths to create a little bit of depth to the image. This piece is also a work in progress and I am excited to see where I can go with this type of work. Artist Post
Cat is working on an amazing project this semester and I am very excited to see where it is going to go. She is going to make a series of shadow boxes that will be about her personally life and the emotions that she is dealing with her parents getting a divorce. She has come up with a very clear-cut process on how she will make this piece. There is so much detail and work that has already been put into this piece and I cannot wait to see the finished product at the end of the semester.
