Students learn basic anatomy and will begin to develop an understanding of the way a figure inhabits space; thus able to successfully reproduce this space in two dimensions. The goal of the course is to learn academic, realistic representation of the figure: Emphasis will be on accurately rendering the figure on the page in proper proportion. Students work up to developing a personal style within the confines of academic figurative art.
I really like how you did something different with the skin tone. The purplish hue in it is really nice and the I love the curve in the lower part of her stomach under her breast.
Great use of complements in the color palette, as well as the light versus darks in this piece. The brushstrokes are very smooth, which works with the somber feel and expression on the figure's face.
I really appreciate your decision to place the figure in a completely shaded background. This allows her body to stand out. In other words, the contrast between the background and the brighter colors you used on the body is what gives the figure its roundness and fullness.
By far my favorite piece. I like the cool and calming atmosphere that you have created. I liked the complimentary colors that you chose. The deep purple and the buttery yellow give off a dreamy aura. The white negative space makes it look like a dream cloud. Very well done.
This is perhaps one of my favorite pieces done all year. Your uses of color and compliments are beautiful. It also gives a very calm, serene to the piece. Your brush work is amazing and the background is very lovely. Good Job!
I love how subtle all your works are. The colors all work great together in creating the sense of flesh. I love how the body subtly blends itself into the background. The background looks great also. Overall this is a very strong piece.
The use of strong darks gives strong depth. I love the rounded style of the figure. The overall composition and proportions was painted well. There's a very subtle atmosphere from the choice of colors.
Really lovely colour choices here! The figure is captured very delicately here, and I think that works well with the textures you have in the background. I am especially interested in the purer forms of blue and yellow used on her skin tones, I think this piece is very well done overall.
this piece it one of my favorites, because it is so whimsical and the color palette is beautiful. I think the way you used color on the body is very useful in terms of describing the body.

ReplyDeleteI like the overall tonal shade is working well. The violet, yellow and red and peach are working very well with each other.
