Art Styles

Response to Cubsim Packet

So  for my class, I had to read a three page packet regarding Cubism.  It was good at being brief and not one of those disastrous resources that take longer to read than a dictionary.  It went over the two styles of Cubism: Analytical and Synthetic, while touching upon the colours generally used in the process.  Finally, the packet gave great insight into Cubist Artists Picasso and Braque, sort of the fathers of Cubism.  It was a pretty sweet read.

Cubism Paintings

Here are three separate attempts at painting cubism art, I had a difficult time doing this project. Just the concept wasn’t clicking with me.

1940s Colours

In the 1940s, these pastel paints were all the rave in these examples of colours.

1940s Furniture

When researching furniture in the 1940s, I came across many of these heavy looking wooden cabinets or buffets. So I figured that’s what possibly could’ve been popular during this time period.

1940s Movie Star

Why pass up a chance to bring out Shirley Temple in the 1940s? She’s an American Icon, and as cute as a button!

My Mind

Since our topic in class this week is Surrealism, I would like to give you a glimpse into my thought process. This is undeniably so true; I dissect every detail of a situation, studying the details along with causes and effects of what my next decision is, then try to put everything back together to make a decision. All at the speed of light.
