SCROLL

The reason that I chose this scroll is because it shows the greatness of working with negative space and just using black ink. I also chose this image because the image of the mountain is great and I like the writing on the side it gives it a great look for it like it also takes your eyes towards that. This also captures the beauty of the mountains because you can see the nice detail and see the way that the black and white makes it stand out and call to you. The river below also gives it a nice touch because you can tell how big the mountain is and how the view would be.









The reason why i chose this scroll is because i think that the black and white images look great it gives it a great aspect. Also this image looks great because the mountains or hills if you look closer you can see that there are rooms and windows that can be occupied. That's what makes this image great and the reason i chose it.


I chose this image because the color combination is so great it just really catches my eye and my attention. Also because this gives me and idea of the color combinations that i can do and play around with. One thing that really caught my eye was the way that there are more then one canvas to make one amazing image that has a great sunset and on the side has a moon.






The reason that i chose this tiger was because i think that it is a great symbol in the Chinese and the Japanese culture and it looks like it represents fear and greatness. Also it looks great combination of color with the color of the tiger and the black and white background. The tiger just gives it an awesome look and is just great.













I like this image because not just because it was an eagle but because it represents Mexicans. It captures the stands of the bird and the awesome look from the side. It also looks different color from all the other painting because they used Brown and other painting use either black and white or different colors. That's why i chose it because it was a different color and different way to show case it.

ME HERE NOW

"The Little Mermaid Realized The Prince was a Douchebag Anyway" By Chris Silvia

I chose this art piece because I can see the representation on why Chris named it the way that he did. The knife represents the prince like he's adventures and is tough. The lady in the middle represents the little mermaid and the wood next to her is just for color and to stand out. The words "AGUA" or "water" tells where the little mermaid was from and where this took place. This looks very interesting like it looks old and used and looks like it was found at the bottom of the sea. One question that I would ask him would be " Why did you think she finally realized that the prince was a douchebag?"

5 Images

"Pebbles Broken & Scraped" By: Andy Goldsworthy

This image is really amazing because it shows not only something artistic, but it also shows the math that it has like the Golden Spiral. It looks amazing plus how the white paint on it makes it have like a great feel to it like theres some thing other then the pebbles to look at.









"Burst" by: Jen Stark

This image stood out because of it's name and because of the way that it is made. It looks like the artist used construction paper and just traded it into little ways and made this explosion looking thing. Also the different colors make the middle of this piece pop and make it even more interesting like theres something going on there.








"Coke Totems" by: John Dahlsen

This art stood out to me because it's a little different then the ones that I have been looking at. This isn't a painting or an instillation it's more like a building thing where they build totems with plastic coke bottles. That's a really tough thing to do because its not that easy to stack plastic bottle because they will fall. I think a good view of this would be a bottom to top view of it to get a better perspective.







"Skull On Grass"

I really like this picture because it shows that you can take some thing recyclable and turn it into some thing great. For example this here that they took it looks like steel or iron and just either melted it and re-arrnged it to make this skull. Also what grabs my attention is not only the skull, but also how its like in the grass because there is also some thing else to look at not only just the skull but also the grass. The grass makes the background more interesting not just plain black.


Erik Otto "Water in the Clouds"

I chose this instillation because not only does this have a painting in it but it also has things popping out at you like the houses. So it makes it more interesting to look at and just wonder why the artist did this like what were his intentions. It makes me want to try this out like have things hanging out of my art work and show a feeling with the popping out art, kind of like a pop-up book.
