Here's a few of my favourites.. ![]() ![]() The one on the left is the original work of artist Gabriele Munter. Mine's on the right. Our teacher photostated few great artists' paintings (made as light as possible) so we could paint on those A4 (not double A paper k? =P) papers with the technique as close to the original. Because the paper was just the normal A4, we had to paste it on a drawing block before we started painting. It was really tough trying to copy exactly like how they painted.. But I liked this a lot because it's pretty colourful. =) ![]() ![]() The painting on the left is by the ever-famous Vincent Van Gogh. The one on the right is mine. This was the last painting he painted before he died. I remember this painting vividly when teacher explains this in class. He told us that this painting is a very sad painting. The building is a church, and the two roads - one leads to the graveyard and another leads to the church. But I guess we as Christians could interpret it the other way round (if you know what I mean). Vincent Van Gogh's life is a sad one. Do google and read up about his life if you are interested. Ironically, the classes in my art class are named according to great artists and mine's Van Gogh. Maybe that's why I'm so interested in him. I've always liked the way he paints and the meaning beneath his paintings. ![]() This is my version of Monalisa. Using kolaj technique. Don't ask me why my Monalisa has eyes like stars, hands like orange sticks with flower fingers, face-shape like papaya, hair texture like curly fries. It's like this, we're supposed to paint Monalisa, but in a different light and perspective. But we must stick to that action - her palms crossed at the front. Some drew Monalisa for a Rolex ad, how creative! Just adding a rolex at her wrist. Some painted her as a lawyer, some sportswoman and loads. It's so cool! But I chose to do kolaj, using the artist Joan Miro's technique - who always uses weird perspectives to look at things with his imagination. Here's an example of Joan Miro's painting taken from here. ![]() Now don't ask me what is the painting all about. =P This is another painting we did, teacher brought from somewhere a periuk kera and placed it at the windows and made us paint it out. It's quite cool to have a periuk kera right in front of you! =) ![]() sorry for the bad lightings =P Here's another: ![]() you would obviously get the idea which I don't need to get to. =) and these.. needs no footnotes =P (this is painted by my teacher as an example for me to paint after)![]() (this is the view of the windows in my class which I'm supposed to paint after) ![]() that's all for now.. my long-awaited dinner has finally reached home after some agonizing hours!! *runs to food* |
