Artist in the city 61cm x 91cm 27 January 2016 Exhibition text For my pieces of art work I wanted to interpret how the city is influential towards me and how I am influential towards the city which is why I placed several components that together deliver the meaning I intend to deliver to the audience that views it. |
Planning
(1)I started brainstorming on ideas
(2)started to think of the colors I would use
(3)thought of an artistic inspiration
(4)developed a further meaning
Process
For my process I first started placing a black coat of paint on the canvases after I started making the colors I would use. I than started to paint the buildings and went on from their to paint the lines on the top canvas .After that was accomplished I than started using the white and placing the white dots with the brush I had which was a brush that left a more smoother finish and gave me the figure I wanted for the white.

Meaning
For the meaning I kept it quiet simple and self explanatory by viewing the art piece as the city is painted with different colors in a pattern I than choose to pass on to the top canvas to demonstrate the city being those colors is next to the white dots which are me and in the top canvas I meant to deliver how I influence the city myself being the white dots surrounding the colored lines being the city. For the second canvas which is the middle part I painted a heart with the white dots showing the city makes my heart and how I am happy which is the meaning why I choose to place a heart. Lastly for the bottom canvas I painted the city with the white dots on top showing the connection from the city to my heart.

Artistic inspiration
For my artistic inspiration I choose Gina de gorna as her art has many meanings and ideas by viewing it and I also liked how for many of her paintings she keeps a simple design .she also makes many views which was what I was also trying to do give a view of the city although in my art piece in this case I did choose to keep it simple and add more meaning to it.

Reflection
For my art piece I felt there could have been more detail but at the same time I didn't want too add to many as I wanted the meaning to standout and not just have a simple meaning but I wanted the people who view my art piece to look for it and come up with there interpretation of my art piece.
