Amethyst Sky

I'm doing a ton of posting on days other than mine... lol Sorry if I'm stealing the spotlight here. I just thought I should share some of what's going around in my brain right now. Here are some artists I found on www.deviantart.com of all places. Not always the best place to look for nice art.. but sometimes you certainly find things that are unique.

This artist's username is TiaPanko and the photograph is called Vision Shadow. I like how the figure fades away almost, blending with the background.

This artist's username is Lindabell and the photograph is called Dancing with Shadow. I thought the use of the color on the figure rather than the background was interesting. Also that the figure is repeated over itself again and again. More ambiguous then some of the things I do. My lines are much more crisp and clear. My color is either usually one flat color on the figure, or one on the background. Things to think about I guess.

Last one. This one is by username Furtiv and is called Questions. This photograph gives me interesting ideas about actually using text on the body rather than floating around of behind. The only other time I've done text on the body was in another one of your classes Chantal, if you remember. And I did it in freehand with paths.. This picture makes me think of The Pillow Book, like actually trying to write it on.. or maybe bring the projector back into play and instead of using it for shadow, using it to make my text fit into the photograph a little better... These are all just ideas bubbling in my head. I'm still trying to do a lot of research on other more established artists. I just thought these things were a bit of an interesting find for internet artists. I still need to work on poses and just what the message I'm trying to convey is really. But these are all good brainstorms for the moment I think. Till next time!
