Another detail Leonardo would add is something a little more humanistic; he would give each being their own personal traits and facial features. Leonardo’s skill and detail gave his paintings great feeling and mood, and brought his paintings a step above all others. Michelangelo on the other hand, much preferred sculpting over painting, his belief was that sculpture
She inspires me from her bold, bright and profound artworks that are so characteristically distinguishable as being her style that they are hard to be mistaken as someone else’s work, this sense of identity through style is incredibly intriguing as a way of expressing ones individuality. The particular piece that I have selected entitled ‘morning wishes’ I find to be a hauntingly beautiful, dark and nostalgic depiction of childhood memories, growth and acceptance. Unlike many of her other art pieces ‘morning wishes’ is not painted using spray paint but instead with acrylic paints. The rather unusual use of media by Pasquini is a statement in itself. A statement about identity through personal history.
It’s not recognized by everyone as a serious art form but personally I have always found great inspiration, drama and beauty in the world of fashion” -Bold and uniquely graphic style -work focuses on the portrait, in abstraction and elegance. Stark contrast, fractured space, and meticulous mark-making are a few elements present in her work. This Barcelona based illustrator's drawings are collages of deconstructed portraits and pencil-drawn and Pantone black monochromatic patterns collaged together creating works for fashion, editorial and high-end magazines as well. -I like how Anna Higgie ensures the pencil sketched image is explicitly to the forefront of her illustrations as you can almost feel the texture of the lead against the paper. Her images though softly outlined are graphic and veer towards mixed media art in places.
All the colors of the eye shadows, lip glosses and different hairstyles were much more fascinating than chemistry formulas. The appreciation she received from the bride was flawless. She received goodie bag full of love, chocolate and make up from the bride. Another event that encouraged me into this field was when she got the contract to do Miss California’s hair and makeup for her campaign photo shoot last year. I was enchanted by the increase of her communications through this career.
Possibly my most favored art style period on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, would be the Greek and Roman Galleries located on the first floor. There is a beautiful, tranquil state of mind artistically portrayed throughout each work of art during this time period that has never failed to amaze me. Illustrious depictions of mythical gods and goddesses, as well as the story-telling nature of the style in which these art works are created, are what I find very intriguing. One such example that can further elaborate my point, is the Bronze statue of Eros sleeping, located in the new section of the Greek and Roman Galleries. This realistically sculpted statue shows a young sleeping child sprawled out on top of a rock.
The physical countenance of a person is often central to the perception of their sexuality through another’s eyes; in Victorian times a woman was highly valued for her refined beauty. Thel embodies the classical sense of a womanly figure: gentle, graceful, maidenly- an image reinforced by Blake’s tone of Romanticism. His comparisons of her to many beautiful things found in nature, such as her “morning beauty” and “gentle lamentation [that] falls like morning dew”, suggests an earthly beauty (Christ 1426). Written thirty years prior to the Victorian age, Blake’s poem embodies a generally desired sense of beauty that sets the stage for 19th century ideals. In stark contrast with this idyllic woman, Jane Eyre’s countenance is that of a plain, pale, petite young woman of an “otherworldly” appearance.
Moreover, it is clear that not only is she a good wife to her husband but she is a good companion of his too: she works to please him. Although this may just be one representation from one artist, the popularity of the painting may suggest it is an accurate portrayal of the reality, therefore, this source clearly agrees and justifies the angel in the house concept. The separate spheres concept explains that men and women occupy
The art of the high renaissance was important in many differing ways due to the meaning behind the pieces, dealing with realistic issues and religion in a beautiful way. The first artist that we will be looking at is Leonardo Da Vinci who was a very talented artist. He was many other things as well such as a writer and inventor a sculptor and architect. While he enjoyed all of those things is best known for his paintings and his writing. Da Vinci is known as one of the key artists in the renaissance, he was a very multi-talented man.
I have had the pleasure of studying under great painters such as Louis Lamothe, Alfred Sisley, Berthe Morisot, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, and Camille Pissarro. I have also been influenced by the Japanese culture as well as photography (Biography.com).” [Degas] What was your reasoning for painting the same subjects over and over? “It has never occurred to [anyone] that my chief interest in dancers lies in rendering movement and painting pretty clothes (Trachtman). I was excited by the realism and classic beauty
It is obvious that this strange animal fascinated Marianne Moore and her delight in it is one of the major elements that informs the poem. Her enchantment with the pangolin can be found, and is prevalent in the beginning of The Pangolin; which like most of her poems begins with a rich and intense description of the pangolin. This description was not only meant to educate the reader about the pangolin, but must be considered in order to understand the full importance of what Marianne Moore was saying about grace. The pangolin's body is beautiful, but Moore continues to further relate the pangolin to grace by equally admiring its moral characteristics. He is a "toiler."
