    This is a really good effort, a lot of ideas here....but as last term, not enough explanation of your thought processes. Part of your ability to communicate as an artist is to be able to write about your work as well as use the visual aspect. Add commentary on what you are doing here and make it clearer.
    It is important to understand the role of these images - Geisha 5 & 7 in particular are really strong drawings and further evidence that you have been improving your ability in terms of your drawing practise.

Something New - Artist research - Vivienne Cawson

Image
Vivienne Cawson  Flowers in watercolour In her career, Vivienne Cawson has worked as a designer of printed carpets, art and design teacher and a professional painter. She is a Leicester educated watercolour artist and she specialises in flowers and portraits. Her work is inspired by colours and shapes of flowers, pieces of fabric, tablecloths and her favourite jugs. She runs workshops and exhibitions all over UK and her watercolours can be bought in the form of accessories, artcards, books, calendars cushions, gift cards, greeting cards, bookmarks, original art, portraits, floral watercolours and prints.

I Hate Art - Angry Dog - Edvard Munch

Image
Angry Dog is a painting by Edvard Munch painted in 1938-43 the painting shows a big black angry dog with the tongue hanging out. The dog is standing outside in the grass and there are birch trees behind it. the dog is looking at the viewer clearly angry. We can only see the front half of its body. This painting ia a story between Edward and his neigbours dog. The painting is carelessly painted as if by a child. I do not like the fact that the brushstrokes are thick,  defined because it makes the painting seem unfinished unflatering without any techniques and skill. The paint is smeared on the canvas which has many visible blank spaces.  For me, the painting should be more realistic and precise with many details. I am not a fan of abstract composition. I do not like the subject of this artwork. In my opinion, the subject matter of a painting should be pleased on the eyes and give joy. Image reference: https://munch.emuseum.com/articles/24317

investigation software

  In this post, I will investigate software which I will use for my project. After long research on which software will be perfect for my illustrated book I decided I will use procreate, Adobe Photoshop, Flipsnak.  Procreate is the easiest option for me because I am more familiar with and I used before. Procreate allows me to draw and paint using different techniques and stunning brushes which will elevate the diversity of my images. Procreate is a digital program, an award-winning illustration app made exclusively for I pad. I downloaded this app for $ 9.99 it is a one-time deal and no subscription is required. I think it's a surprising bargain!  One of the main reasons to treat myself to a new 12.5 Apple I Pad Pro and the Pencil was to be able to learn about the illustration process which I saw on many movies on the internet. I was always fascinated How people can create such awesome digital painting masters. Procreate has many benefits:  - over 200 handcrafted bru...
