Welcome to your blog! You will see videos below of an illustrator planning a few books.
THIS WEEK:
HW:
1. Create new gestures practicing what you learned in class. Things to remember: start with the WHOLE, start on the inside and WORK OUT, follow the MOVEMENT and FEEL what you are doing/seeing.
2. Collage
a. One simple cut and combine the two images. It is obviously easy to do this like a no brainer, so what does it take to create one that is FUNNY, ODD, DISTURBING, BEAUTIFUL- go for an unusual image that pushes our experience, something we have NEVER seen before. Have a BREAKTHROUGH, try combining three things that DON'T belong together (religion and sex, poverty and celebration, etc...) Don't question just combine and see what meanings evolve. Cross boundaries, look for patterns in the works that you create and write about how you see what you did as different to someone else.
b. Create a collage that has ink, paint or some other drawing combined with a photo, pattern, texture, etc... have fun- SURPRISE YOURSELF!! (consider less NORMAL materials- kitchen condiments, or food, pieces of nature, dirt, water, dust...)
3. REDO the BLIND CONTOURS.
Don't forget to bring in the BEST GESTURE from this week!
PS: The paintings are from Carrie Moyers who has a show up NOW! If you haven't visited the Lower East Side gallery scene you should make the trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
