Analysis Of Austin Gutierrez Road To Nowhere
The above drawing is by Austin Gutierrez “Road to Nowhere” a student at Eastfield College. The experience I had with the artwork in person, it was more vivid in its color and I was also able to see the actual colors within the patterns of the designs very closely. The dominate colors in this drawing is yellow and blue with the brushstrokes gestures suggesting expression for the viewer on an individual basis. However, the composition in this drawing consists of a vertical line in which it divides the road in the direction to nowhere. The image was so clear and I was able to understand the concept of the painting. I was also able to let my imagination of the mind to run within the work. This artist was very unique in his work, which gave a great

    The Marvelous Sauce

    What first catches the viewer 's eyes are the vivid colors used in the painting. Ultimately what jumps out the most is the man on the right 's red robe. The artist intended this for a reason, discussed later. The room where the men are standing is front lit. Also the atmosphere is not hazy. There is no hint of sffumato. It is very much unlike the Romantic works produced earlier in the century. Rather the edges of the figures and of other objects in the picture plane are clearly defined. The artist "renders every object in the painting with meticulous clarity" (Smith 1). To see this work in person is really quite impressive. The painter has achieved a great sense of depth in the painting, as well as a strikingly realistic quality. The picture taken for this paper from the Albright-Knox 's web page simply does not do this work justice. One 's experience of standing in front of this painting is that of awe. The artist has depicted everything in the scene so realistically, and yet has made it look better than it probably did in real life. Everything in the painting has a rich, glowing quality about it.…

    Analysis Of The Road By Gary Soto

    The conflict and resolution of the story gave readers an insight of young love and understanding it from an outside point of view. The conflict in the poem is that the young boy is unable to pay the chocolate that cost a dime since he only had a nickel. It was resolved when he decided to give the nickel and the orange he had in his pocket. As shown in the text, the speaker says, "I didn’t say anything. I took the nickel from my pocket, then an orange, and set them quietly on the counter" (Soto 34-38). As a young boy, he didn't have much money, but he wanted to impress the girl he really likes, so he takes a chance with the oranges. The conflict shows that the speaker and drugstore lady had a silent communication. For example, "When I looked…

    Formal Analysis Rogier Van Der Weyden, St. Columba Alter Piece (Center Panel), 1455

    The color palette of the painting is diverse, while red and warm earth tones dominate the painting. The light source seems to be in front of the left section of the picture while dispersing towards the right. The use of light gives the illusions of volume. The gradation of the sky is very exaggerated. The top is a dark blue and as it reaches the middle the sky is very light. The painting has a smooth finish and is very detailed. The flowers on the bottom are very intricate as well as the patterns of the people’s garments. Each face has a distinguished and unique appearance; no two faces are…

    Summary Of Flag By Jasper Johns

    The painting itself has 13 red and white stripes and 48 white stars against a blue background square, it’s an image that at the time, during the Cold War, would have elicited different reactions from people. The collage underneath was made with newspaper, a disposable material much like other Pop artists used and the encaustic technique was meant to draw the viewer in for further inspection of the piece. There isn’t one point of focus in the piece, everything is meant to be given the same amount of consideration, and this is done with the technique using the encaustic paint. He arranged the collage and then the heavy brushstrokes in a way that spreads out the focus, ensuring there is not one single focal point. His artworks, including this piece, seem more concerned with the structure than with the meaning, which greatly depended on the personality of the viewer.…

    Why Was the Work of Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein Immediately Popular in the 1960's?

    Another one of my favourite pieces is ‘Girl with ribbon’ I find it portrays a strong sense of emotion to viewers, like many of his other pieces it only tells a snippet of the story and the rest is left to the viewers imagination. This is the aspect that I love the most, each of his pictures are overly dramatic with sometimes a speech bubble to give you an idea of the story behind the painting, it really makes the viewer think about the piece and let their imagination run wild and decipher meanings for themselves. This is what I am planning on achieving through my…

    Adoration of Magi

    The bright vivid colors attracted me to this work; I found it interesting how the artist played off of mostly reds and blues and I liked how my attention was immediately drawn to the center of the painting. All of the people seemed to be involved in the miraculous birth of the Jesus. The greatest aesthetic strength of this painting is its use of vivid color, the aesthetic weakness I found was the lack of the artistic use of shadow. I…

    art history paper

    I experienced the work of art in an informal way because it was a nude woman and she’s on the bed with a sort of comfortable expression and gesture. Also, it felt as if this painting was meant to be seen in private by someone it was painted for. The fact that it was secluded, not hung like other bigger pieces, and how it was in the room with other artworks among the Rococo style, there was no stress felt, and I sort of almost felt fluffy and relaxed as if this painting was in my own home too. I also had a feeling like I could grab this piece off the platform as if it was me picking up a photo frame at my mom’s house to look at. I think it was originally seen as a private painting like how it’s in a private placement in the museum and since the Rococo period was about love, being happy and carefree, then that’s what the painting was meant to do. The gold framing wasn’t necessarily unique in the museum because most of the 14th-16th century pieces had some gold detailed framing.…
