Hello, I cannot believe I am already more than halfway through my third Fall semester! I am a 3rd year Illustration major. I go to Marywood University, and study in the Marywood University Art Department.
Anyways, I just concluded with my second project for my Advance Drawing Class.
Project Specifications:
We had to research an art movement of our choice. Once we completed our research; we were assigned with the task to illustrate a piece based on the specific art movement.
As for me, I chose to research the POP ART, Art Movement.
POP ART:
- Vibrant, saturated colors,
- Often pieces are outlined in black,
- Features popular products or figures from American culture.
- Loud all capitalized words and typefaces.
My Piece:
Inspired by Andy Warhol and his famous Shot Marilyns piece. I illustrated one of my Halloween animatronics in a similar manner.
Shot Wackymoles:
- Acrylic paint, chalk pastel, and brush pen on black paper.
WRAP UP
Overall, this project was an insightful experience on the history of art. Furthermore, I loved experimenting and stepping outside of my comfort zone.
- Stay Spooky, Santo 🎃
