Realism .

Illustration for realism .




Realism may be is based on the idea that reality, or the world, has a structure that is beautiful. Therefore, the object, sizes, perspective and all the contents in the painting are supposed be right and precise.

Realism mainstream is to depict subjects in accordance with secular empirical rules, as they are considered to exist in third person objective reality, without embellishment or interpretation.

In order to show surrealism,
First, I chose a style of detailed portrayal that is inspired by photographic style to follow actual realism. I think the photographic style contains many facts as values, good composition proportion and so on.

Second, I use over exposure on this painting; also I fully put the main object to cut out forehead. Medium brush strokes are used to depict realism style. The combination of the effects; light, brush strokes and the composition may make the scene more dramatic.

Third, I used a metaphor that a pair of purple gloves is very meaningful for the main character, she probably want to express what she thinks through the gloves. Therefore the gloves can be potential image of her.

All the objects in the poster are rendered in exact perspective and right proportion to be close to actual realism.

Surrealism .

A piece of Illustration work to be Surrealism Style.

Surrealism contains various styles and streams which can be humor, odd as well a expression of subconsciousness.

The objects in Surrealism can be distorted and bent as much as the artist can imagine, can be expressed the world of Illusion, Imagination and unrealistic, however most surrealists show the culmination of portrayal.

In order to show surrealism,

First, I chose a style of detailed portrayal that is inspired by Peter de Sève. His uses water color and color pencils to present humorous and hilarious situations.

Second, I used light, less staining colors and soft brush strokes to present the humorous scene as well as I use pencil strokes to emphasize the shadows.

I used a metaphor that a nice dinner set is in a snow globe with penguins to present patio in cold weather. Of course we love patio in nice warm weather, we don’t want to be at cold patio. We may want to hold the snow globe in the hands instead of being in the snow globe.

Therefore all the objects in the poster are rendered in exact perspective and right proportion to be close to Surrealism.

Book Cover for Out of Africa. (ART2000_010 Drawing and Painting)

Rationale Statement. --------------------------------------------------------------------

Out of Africa

The poster presents a book cover for the “Out of Africa” that is designed with traditional African patterns. For the project, I want to emphasize the three main elements to be different from the original design of the book cover.

First, I use the primitive patterns and simplified symbols which are designed of animals and plants. That design may give readers more interests and the scent of Africa. All the patterns; giraffes, birds and sun followed the traditional design that contain simplicity and white bold out lines.

Second, the intense colors which are deep orange, yellow and black are used for main colors and green, brown, white are used for sub-colors. The color of combination makes a mood of Africa with the patterns.

Third, for the layout, a diagonal line divides into two faces to be more dynamic and contrast; one is orange background as a strong image and bright blue sky with house as peaceful image the contrast presents the image of Africa.

I used large brush for background on dried gesso to present the rough texture and used a slender-writing brush to render the animals. And I made two versions; one contains a pattern of shield on the sky, the other does not show that. Because I realized that there is so busy around the shield cloud and title.

In conclusion, I combined all the contents; colors, patterns and mood to present my artwork
as the book cover for “Out of Africa”

Wine Label for ART2000_010 Drawing and Painting

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rationale. --

The figure of label is inspired by a traditional house that preserves wine, the color combinations; used yellow outlines and the main illustration that is painted with water color present a bottle of pure white wine.

In order to emphasize that the wine is from Italy, I painted a scene of Montepulciano in the label, also add the color of Italy which are green, white and red.

For the title of the wine, a neat and classy font is used to support the overall refined mood and rhythm of the label. It does not stand out itself too much from the label, another classy font is used for subordinate information such as percentage of alcohol, volume and distributer.

The logo presents a letter “S”, it is inspired by a stream of water. It can be a metaphor of nature and the wine is very fresh. Some stems and leafs of grapes are around the “S” as a decoration factor. The logo is used on the neck-label and the cap, all the color combinations signify the high quality of white wine.

In conclusion, I try to emphasize the pure white wine and Italy through the all combinations; color, shape and illustration
