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.
The tiles give the piece a sense of the environment, it seems to tell a narrative. Her expression is sad and anxious looking, overall the piece is compelling.
I definitely get a sense of malleability in your model's flesh. Her body seems soft and I think that this is because of your successful use of highlights and shading.
I like the overall feel of this piece. The expression you captured is great. I would just suggest adding more white highlights to get a sense of a light source.
The composition turned out great and I really like how even though that you managed to fit almost the entire body, it is still her face that I am drawn to. I like the tile, but it looks like she is almost floating on it. The highlights around her thigh and stomach are one of my favorite parts of your piece.
Your detail in the shadows of her body amazing. I know this because personally it was hard for me to achieve without making her looked bruised or distorted. I like your color scheme a lot, however I would suggest putting some shadow under her on the tile to avoid making her look as if she is floating.
I really like how you created form in the ribs and under her breasts. It does look a tad bit off but I really like your use of value and contrast in that area. I think the dark upside down L shadow kind of throws off the shape a bit. But, overall I I think it's a very compelling piece. The emotion in the face speaks well and the figure itself is done very skillfully throughout.
I really love the face and the body but it does not look like it relates to the background. it looks like separate piece. I think the background around the figure needs a shadow around her body. but overall good job!
I like the emotion that can be seen on her face. The brush strokes are very nice on her leg to create a highlight.

ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the addition of tile to the background, it gives the piece a harder feel in contrast to the softness of the figure.
ReplyDeleteVery nice. I think her expression is very well done and you did a good job on the shadows and highlights.

ReplyDeleteIts very interesting that you've changed the expression of the model. The tiles brings a definite sense of space and perspective.
ReplyDeleteThe complimentary colours work very nicely in this piece. The overall proportions look true to form, however her head look a tad large for her body.
