"The Third Class Carriage"

Reproduced By: The Year 1 CyberARTS Class

     For the past two weeks the Year 1 CyberARTS class has been working on a reproduction. The painting/ piece of art that we had to reproduce was " The Third Class Carriage" by Honore Daunier. Each student in the class at least had 2 pieces to reproduce. The main point about this project was to learn how to enlarge a picture. Also how to used charcoal for value. No once knew how this piece would turn out, in the end but once we put it all together it looked amazing!

     First lets start off with Emotionalism. To me the feeling of this photo is upsetting, but with a lot of care. By the title of this art work ( The Third Class Carriage) and also the colours that are used in this piece it's upsetting because " Third Class" is the lowest class out of all the classes. Which also means that they're the poor class. Daumier used a lot of dark tones in this art piece which made it look upsetting ( in my opinion). But it's also trying to say that "Even though they're poor, they're caring as can be." By looking at the picture you could see a women with a child. Not only  she's poor she also has a  child to raise and worry about. you could tell by the look on her face you could see a hint of a smile in there and knowing with that hint of a smile, you could tell that the women cares for that child and wants that child to be healthy and safe. If I were them I would think to myself " Even though I may not be like the others, I am still more caring and thoughtful for someone else other then myself." This is what I think the emotion is in this painting.

     The next thing we are going to talk about is the Unity in this painting. I do think that there is unity in this painting because there's a lot of balance between colours and emphasis between the two women and the child at the front. There's balance in the original painting by looking at the colours. How I see the balance, is if you look at the original painting you see a lot of dark tones. But the yellows and the creamy white makes the people stand out more.

   Some people in the world expect the objects in the art work to look realistic. But the truth is that not all objects need to be realistic. To me the original painting is balanced between realistic an not realistic. The faces and other body parts looks realistic because there's a lot of detail for example women in the front row. There is a lot of lines in her face to make the women with the basket look elderly. All the faces with the different shadings make it look realistic. I do think that this art piece looks realistic.

I hope you enjoyed this class piece :)

            

Thoughts Of Mind

Hello! With the thumb print of mine, I wanted to talk more about my identity. What I tried to communicate in this art piece is for you to get to know me a little bit more. I got really interested on this assignment because i got to write a story in the shape of my thumb print and I got to use water colour for the back background. Personally I love water colour. This project has personal meaning to me because it talks about me and my life styles, my interests and other things important to me. I used the colours Purple and Red. I used Purple because it's my favourite colour and to me it's a calm and relaxing colour. I used Red because i needed something to pop or stand out, so i used Red. It has a rich, dark tone so it worked really well. Which is also balance and contrast between colours.

For this art piece I had to experiment with many things. I experimented with colours, fonts, and trying to communicate myself. The thing I really struggled on was trying to communicate myself and then making it look like a thumb print. I used water colour materials for the background, such as a watercolour pallet, 2 cups of water ( one for washing your brush and the other one for water colour effects), a watercolour (fluffy) brush , rubber cement ( to stick the watercolour parer and the over head paper), and other little materials like tape to stick on a board with your paper and a thin marker to write your thumb print. I'm especially pleased on how it turned out. I didn't think it would look that good because of he colours, they didn't match an i never thought it would have worked out. But it did. I hope you enjoyed this art piece of Thoughts of Mind!

Typographic Identity

This is my Typographic Identity. All the words in this image describes me and who I am. i enjoy listening to music and with the shape of my Typographic Identity image its a treble cleft which is a part of music. The reason why i chose these colour because they're popping and very eye catching. When I see this photo, it emphasis most of the words. This photo is a description of my.
