Author: Robert Delaunay
Title: Endless Rhythm 1934

This certainly not a representation of anything in real life. This is an abstract image of circles and lines. There is an interesting uses of grays to tone down the warm colors of yellow, orange, and red followed by the cooler colors of greens and blues. The use of circles in a curvature create a centrifugal motion within the frame.  



Created by:      Keith Vaughan 1912–1977
Title:         Drawing of three men working with a lorry
Date:         [1941]
Format:         Artwork - on paper, unique
Medium:         Watercolour paint on paper
Dimensions: 100 x 155 mm
Description: The drawing is of the working party in a woodland.
Collection: Tate Archive
Acquisition: Purchased by the archive from Thos. Agnew and Sons Ltd in November 1990
Reference: TGA 9013/1/19

This is a general line drawing of a scene. It looks as if it is the first step of someones painting. However it also looks very good staying as it is. It uses thicker lines and thinner to represent depth or some sort. However it is also clear that that it is water color for the thicker lines. The thicker lines could also look like ink. The most detail appears to be in the truck but that doesn't take away from the rest of the drawing.

Can I just say how much I love giraffes. What I want to know is what defines this differently from animation/cartoon.

This is a very cool illustration due to the fact that it is done with contour lines yet holds the integrity of the scene. It still seemingly has depth. The artist isn't afraid of the line but rather uses to express the items in a rather cartoon like way.

This drawing is so layered that it leaves the viewer not lacking in new ideas. The three point perspective of the man's head gives it an almost a mythical look. Wither the author was aiming to give it this kind of effect or was just trying out different scotches is unbeknownst to me.

It would be really interesting to do a charcoal drawing or something similar to this and try to capture this depth. This is clearly a 3D structure is very different from a 2D pice of art. The other aspect of this is that it will always be different every time you look at it.

In Pursuit of Personal Preferences 3

In Pursuit of Personal Preferences


Simryn Gill (Singaporean, born 1959)
Where to draw the line
Date: 2011–12
Medium: Typewriting on nine sheets of paper
Dimensions: 40 1/4 x 74 3/4" (102.2 x 189.9 cm)
What is incredibly fascinating about this work of art is not merely the interesting layout but the interesting use of real essays written by the author, in this piece. "The typist was instructed to omit spaces, overtype any errors, and repeat words as necessary to fill nine long, scroll-like sheets." Thus the artist is really living up to the expression of reading between the lines. I feel like this art is highly metaphorical and I'm more interested in it's meaning then the mere layout.

Untitled
Date: n.d.
Medium: Felt-tip pen on graph paper
Dimensions: 17 1/8 x 22 1/8" (43.5 x 56.1 cm)
Let's just be real this could be done by anyone make this piece of "art." Why did I put it down? Probably to focus on the fact that what we think of art is very subjective. Also because it feels like the cool start to another great idea.

Figure in Movement
Date: 1913

Aleksandr Archipenko (American, 1887–1964)

Medium: Cut-and-pasted painted paper, conté crayon, and colored pencil on colored paper
Dimensions: 18 7/8 x 12 3/8" (47.9 x 31.4 cm)
What's cool about this drawing is it's simplistic method of representing a moving person. He uses geometric shapes as a way of saying this is the part is this size. Even with this method it still feels very representative of a person moving. Also the fact that the artist was able use different mediums and integrate it all into one piece is certainly fascinating.

What is interesting about this artist is his ability to look at shapes, particularly puzzle pieces, and see "the humanizing aspects" of the image. The author uses both line drawing and solid colored shapes to be able to demonstrate what he sees. The noticeable lines, while not practiced by certain artist styles, demonstrates an almost equilibrium in the shapes.

George Ault (American, 1891–1948)
Study for New Moon, New York
Date: 1944
Medium: Pencil on paper
Dimensions: 14 x 10" (35.3 x 25.3 cm)
This type of drawing aesthetically appeals to me both from it's use of liner perspective and its detailed but not too detailed approach. It is something I consider of more worth and at the same time Something I'd like to gain a better understanding of how to do it. The way light is represented is not with lamp posts but rather little erase marks. It is almost symbolically represented by theses lights of little beams.
