Compare and Contrast









In the original art and in my art there are a few similarities. For example I kept there same lines to try and keep the movement that the lines flow in. I also kept the lines white because I wanted all bright colors in the artwork. Keeping the lines white along with bright colors around them keep the lines from over taking the art work. 

What you notice different right away is that I got rid of the black background and added a bunch of colors. I also did not like the solid background color so added a bunch of random shapes to give it more of a cluttered but clean feeling. I cropped some lines out and made them a bit larger as well. The 2 colors in the originals just weren't enough for me so I had to throw in an over load. 

Final Project


Work in Progress


Objective Critique

In this art work it seems as though they used simple white and black color. The white colored lines move in all directions and flow into one another giving a sense of movement in the lines. The variety of lines running through out the art create a sort of pattern as our eye cruises along. I think it wouldn't be so plain if they added something to the solid background. Also I can get a sense of depth in the way the lines go up and back down, even the right side it seems the lines fall into a hole. I see a lot of elements of art and principles of design in this art.

Subjective Crique

The art that I chose consist of a lot of white lines on a black back ground. I did not find this art work very appealing because of a few reasons. It has unique line curves and different variations of line work but the colors scheme is very bland to me, maybe not so much to others though. I also am not a fan of how the background is solid black, it does not appeal to my style. Overall I did think the lines were good but putting it all together I did not like the overall look and feel like it should be busier and  add some more colors. I would change this piece a lot to add more colors and give the background more than just a solid color. I would like to crop some lines out and zoom in to some lines to make them a bit bigger. I feel like adding a few shapes to the background will draw the eye around the art work. I want to add a bunch of colors, maybe even over doing it in color to bring it to life and have a sense of happiness. Another idea would be to tell a story, possibly the lines are running through someones body that is slowly falling apart. Leaving the colors black and white to give it the edgy feel. I will try both ideas and see what feels right and gives me a better vibe from the work.
