Progress of 2D outcomes

-

 Looking at this work, it needs some improvement as 'the final outcome' looked boring and way worse than the others. 

Firstly, I changed his face as it looked very flat, and we couldn't see any expression or facial details. However, I repeated the process one more inspiring by Francis Bacon. Initially, I wanted to change my face, but during the process, I also started changing clothes. 


Unfortunately, I messed up at the beginning by mixing the wrong colours. Also, I have used too dark tones, and I must have repainted. 


Based on some of Beksinski's paintings, I decided to improve my work by adding the weak, disproportionally long arms of this character. 


As a next step, I changed the colour of the background to darker than the face of this character to create the focal point on the face of this character.


In the end, I sanded it to create a relation between my painting and Francis Bacon's artwork and make the painting more dynamic and messy as the background seemed quite empty. 


I'm satisfied with the final effect. However, having more time to finish this work before the final assessment, I would add more clothes details and depth to this painting as it seems flat to me. Anyway, this painting allowed me to improve my painting skills and taught me more about drawing facial expressions.

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. Also, I have done calligraphy specific to the Renaissance as this theme seems the most attractive to me among the others.    At this moment, I am considering recreating some of the paintings in expressionism using the tones, colours and fonts characteristic of this era.

Tell me a story

The story of my project will present the maximization of emotional expressions and feelings shown in the original pieces. 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...
