Student Commentary
Briefly define the nature of your concentration project.
A study of modified Cubism utilizing flowing linear shapes on the human female figure, emphasizing the interaction of the foreground and background with attention to the highlights and shadows cast on the subject.
Briefly describe the development of your concentration project and the sources of your ideas. You may refer to specific slides as examples.
My concentration draws upon the shapes that I naturally see in the subjects of my pieces. In slides 1* and 2, I innately envisioned shapes within my face. From there, as seen in slide 3, as I sketched female figures, my mind created sweeping lines extending from the curves of the human form, creating wispy moving images. My concentration further evolved as I incorporated meandering shapes gliding over the females, intertwining the background with the foreground and accenting the shapes created by the highlights and shadows of the figures, as can be seen in slides 5 and 8. Finally, the shapes abstractly embodied themselves in and mixed with the scrawling lines in my temper batik pieces, slides 9, 10, 11.
What medium of media did you use?
I used colored pencils, pencil, watercolor pencil, watercolor, tempera paint, and tempera batik.
* Important Note:
The numbers of the slides run from top left to bottom right.
