Art 1 Reflection

ART REFLECTION The reason I chose to base all of my art pieces off of the famous painting by Vladimir Kush was because I was immediately immersed into the imaginative and unique world he transpired through his art. I wanted to show my peers the incredible talent and wonder of art through the eyes of Vladimir and this picture seemed to fit. It shows a character sitting beneath the rocks, along the shoreline reminiscing and staring out at a sailboat beyond the horizon. Beyond that, Vladimir transformed the shape of the clouds and birds along with the wind to create an eye-capturing picture of a women fading through the sky. Problems I encountered this year within my studies of this piece of art included the line drawing of the clouds, which turned out to be increasingly difficult to show, along with the black and white painting. Another problem was human error, in which I cracked my tile into three pieces while creating it. Other than this, I learned a lot about Surrealism and the inspiration by Salvador Dali through these unique forms of art we’ve been incorporating. My favorite piece was probably the tile. I was able to play around with this one a lot, using my imagination to lay out the scene anyway I wanted to. I was able to incorporate the texture and shape by carving out the cliffs and bringing out the face in the painting. I used a sponge to lay the water and made swirls for the clouds. By the end of the project, I was satisfied and had a lot of fun with it. In my conclusion, I believe this art class has changed my perspective on art alone, and the limitless imagination and techniques that are designed by students like us everyday. The art show opened my eyes and helped me realize that anything, and everything, is a piece of ART.
