Art Work For Q2

Posted by Sarybel Melendez in Art - Senior Art - Hull - A on Monday, January 27, 2014 at 5:33 pm

For the first art piece, I chose to do Art History.

I. Art History: Romero Britto

I chose Romero Britto. Romero Britto is a Brazilian-American neon pop artist, painter, and sculptor. His paintings are very creative, simple, yet complex. He does very colorful paintings of single objects but with different designs and little details that make every painting unique. His paintings combine different elements such as cubism, pop art, and graffiti.

He was born in Brazil and moved to Miami in 1989. Shortly after moving here, he was asked by Michel Roux (founder of Absolut Vodka’s Art Campaign) to reinterpret Vodka’s famous bottle. His painting was so good, it was published and seen by millions. He has his own main art gallery at Souch Beach, Miami.

He has completed works for Movado, Disney, Enrico Coveri, Pepsi, the United Nations, BMW and Royal Caribbean Cruises among others.

Pablo Picasso Research:

Picasso lived between the years 1881 and 1973. During these years the spanish artist created tons of pieces, making him one of the most legendary artist, sculptors, painters and printmakers of all time. Despite all the popular images commonly displayed and mentioned in media, Picasso is also responsible for Co- Founding the Cubist Movement, he invented “Constructed Culture,” and also the co-invention of the “Collage.” Picasso was born into an art fluent family, his father was a painter. Some of his art may have been influenced by incidents present in his life. For instance, his sister Conchita died at age seven of diphtheria. Picasso was lucky enough to be sent to a very prestigious art school called “Madrid’s Royal Academy of San Fernando.” Despite Picasso’s schooling, his raw talent and groundbreaking creativity made him one of the most innovative artists of all time.

I copied his drawling of a simple bird.

3 Art Pieces

1. Copy a character. I found the sharpie one the hardest to do, because I tend to go towards softer lines and I couldn't find a way to do that, so I had to be very careful in what I chose to do with the color and lines.

2. Self portrait- Drawing myself is always really difficult, so I think this may have been the hardest one. I really liked working with the charcoal even though I can't help but smudge it absolutely everywhere.

3. Copy a master- I decided to copy characters from the film "The Secret of Kells" I love how that movie is animated, in motion it's even better than flat on paper. Again, sharpie was the most difficult, because there isn't a bunch of shading or anything I could do except flat lines and I think that was really hard to make look nice.

Jaccar Garcia _Quarter 1 Art

During this quarter I chose to do the 2-day art lessons. I felt as if the 2 day art lessons helped me more than if I would have chosen one of the other options. I was capable of realizing what my strength and weaknesses are in art, I learned about shading which I find to be the most difficult part about it all but still the most exciting part.

Here are my drawings:

While copying this piece of abstract art I used various art tools from sharpies to pencils to be more creative with the copies.

Copy a Master: Piet Mondrian

Posted by Morgan Taylor in Art - Senior Art - Hull - A on Friday, November 15, 2013 at 2:06 pm

I decided to copy the master Piet Mondrian I found his paintings to be very well done and beautiful. Since I am really interested in math, I thought his paintings were amazing. His art is an amazing representation of how math relates to art. He uses squares and rectangles along with symmetry. Although he painted this painting in 1920, I find it to be very modern and trendy. I like how he used primary colors in his work and I enjoyed copying his work. I made 4 types of the same painting, one in sharpie, one in colored pencil, one in crayon and another in pastel charcoal.

Art History: Piet Mondrian 1872-1944

Posted by Morgan Taylor in Art - Senior Art - Hull - A on Friday, November 15, 2013 at 2:00 pm

Piet Mondrian was born in 1872 on March 7, 1872. Piet Mondrian, one of the founders of the Dutch modern movement De Stijl, is recognized for the purity of his abstractions and methodical practice by which he arrived at them. He radically simplified the elements of his paintings to reflect what he saw as the spiritual order underlying the visible world, creating a clear, universal aesthetic language within his canvases. In his best known paintings from the 1920s, Mondrian reduced his shapes to lines and rectangles and his palette to fundamental basics pushing past references to the outside world toward pure abstraction. His use of asymmetrical balance and a simplified pictorial vocabulary were crucial in the development of modern art, and his iconic abstract works remain influential in design and familiar in popular culture to this day. Piet Mondrian died on February 1, 1944 at the age of 72.

Copy a Character: Bemo (Adventure Time), Eve (WALL-E), Cockroach (WALL-E), Ice King (Adventure Time)

Posted by Morgan Taylor in Art - Senior Art - Hull - A on Friday, November 15, 2013 at 1:40 pm

I decided to copy characters from my favorite television show on cartoon network and one of my favorite disney movies. I think Bemo is so adorable, he is a game system. Ice King is a crazy man that has ice powers. The cockroach is almost like WALL-E's side kick, I think that he was so cute even though he is a bug. Eve is a robot that has the task to come to earth and find a plant, she then falls in love with WALL-E. I love all of these characters and I found them fun to draw.
