Our second task for day 2 (week 2) is to give a rating, out of five, of how much or not how much we like the style. 1 being - Call the fashion police! 2 being - Quite bad. 3 being - It's ok and all... 4 being - Cool. 5 being - Love it!
Activity 2-
In my thought, I would give it a 3. The skillness is good, but the meaning of the painting is all over the place. All I can work out is that it is woman in a greenish, blueish coloured car. That part makes sense. Then there is this weird coat monster next to her. That is what makes me confused. I have no idea what it is or what the purpose of it is. That is why I give it a lower score. I can tell straight away (just by looking at it) that is in the 19s or lowers times kind of painting. If you have a different arts taste than me, I guess I could see why you would like that style. But my art style is more pictures than paintings.


Hi there Lauren,
ReplyDeleteGreat job on another blog post. I thought your response on the Art Deco painting was very thought out. I could see through you mentioning what you saw in the painting like the colours and objects such as the car and the woman. I thought your comment on what you called “coat monster” was very creative; that showed me that you were really analysing the painting which is what any art critic would do and I agree that it does sort of look like there is a weird creature in the front seat! If you look at the definition of art deco here https://www.google.co.nz/search?q=define+art+deco&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b-ab&gfe_rd=cr&dcr=0&ei=-4hRWtgc7dzzB_2Cikg I think this might help with figuring out what the purpose or theme to the art piece is! It is quite a particular artform and it isn’t for everyone. I personally love all art forms and love going to art galleries in my spare time. Do you have any favourite art pieces or artists that you like the most? I have many favourites such as Frida Kahlo, Gustav Klimt and Picasso. :)
Keep up the amazing blogging and looking forward to reading more of your posts!
Cheers
Jade F :)
