Ink and watercolor. In this piece I tried to show a sequence of ten images. Reading from left to right (and top to bottom), each diagonal set of squares shows one image of the story. So, the first one is the very top left corner and the last one is in the bottom right corner. Following the yellow umbrellas from the first image to the last image shows the whole sequence. Now, I don't think the viewer necessarily gets all that, but I think the general idea of a girl dancing in the rain does come across clearly. I used a generous amount of salt in the background to make it look like rain. I used Emmy's idea of the lamp post, and I think that is one of the most interesting aspects of the painting. I think its changing position from image to image reinforces the idea of movement and a sequence.
YAY I love the lamp post!!! That was seriously exactly what I was picturing. The color looks great. I really like that you are trying a lot of different styles for your breadth.
ReplyDeletei love it! i think the lamp post was a great thing to add! this turned out really well and i can definitely tell its a girl dancing in the rain :)
ReplyDeleteThe addition of the lamp post was perfect here! I really love the different textures in the background as well.
ReplyDeleteLaura- You did a great job on this assignment! I love the whimsical nature of the figure and the way that you flipped the colors of the dress and umbrella. This is very well thought out! Good work.
