Acrylic painting - testing style and techniques

-

Searching for information about Jean Michel Basquiat, I have tried to create a painting similar to his work. I haven't planned or sketched any aspect of my work. During this piece, I have tried to use as many techniques as possible such as paint by hand. Unfortunately, I didn't have spray paint to experiment as Basquiat used in his works. I'm satisfied with the final outcome and looking forward to start the major project using his style. I think it could be a good decision to change the concept and try to create a final piece for a major project in a completely different style.

    Your work should stick to your theme and be about sleep paralysis, but adopting some of the styles and approaches of Basquiat. Artists use the techniques and styles of other artists all the time, but adapt them to their own style in order to help them to develop.

This post presents my first ideas about the new project for art portfolio 2. The sketches might be used while painting and sculpting the works for this project.

The main idea of this project will be a recreation of the paintings from the Renaissance painted by Polish artists such as Jan Matejko and Lukasz Porebski. At this moment, I'm considering creating portraits of the people presented in their most famous paintings. The concept of this work is focusing on their facial expressions creating busy and messy backgrounds.

This post presents my reflection on the second term for art portfolio: During the major project for Art portfolio, I struggled with many aspects of the process, and I can't say I'm fully satisfied with the final outcome as it still might be improved. However, I did my best during these few weeks. I searched the information about the artists, colours and sleep paralysis to present the topic correctly. I have created many side paintings and sketches that I'm satisfied more or less, but it helped me to improve my painting skill and general knowledge about creating. I searched for many helpful materials and used inconvenient tools to get closer to reaching the goal, which was created my best painting until now.  This subject was the most influential for me among the others. It helped me to improve myself as a painter and directed the way. I discovered a real passion for painting, techniques and styles to express myself as an artist in the future. Also, I noticed my mistakes fro...
