Cave Art

Clay Sculpture

At first i was going to make a lid for the sculpture, but then I thought it might be a bit more complicated within the time limit that i had. I used a knife to make holes for the windows and also used the knife to create a scratchy pattern along the whole sculpture. I used a flat tool to smooth the edges making sure they were equal.  I was going to use Frank Gehry's work in reference for my artist research,  but I could not get the clay to stay in the position that i wanted it to be in when I tried to bend it into different shapes.

Double exposure photographs.

Using photoshop I grouped two images together and added effects to them, I mainly used the dark light effect because I think it made them look interesting.

My Narrative Photography

In these photographs Danielle came closer to Jess as if to scare her, the facial expressions were to show  that jess was frightened.

Frank Gehry

Liam Spencer.

Spencer was born in 1964 in Burnley, United Kingdom. He attended St Theodores RC High School then after completing high school, moved on to Burnley college and also the Manchester school of art and now studies at Manchester Metropolitan University. Spencers paintings are mostly focused on Greater Manchester and North West England. He has painted other parts of the world such as New York City. A popular format of his works is 'Panoramas'.

His style is very realistic yet exaggerated, I like how he has done the reflections of the lights and buildings in the roads,  the brightness of his paintings make them stand out a lot. I like the brush strokes he has used to create the right textures for the roads and buildings.

John Virtue

John Virtue was born in the year 1947 in Accrington, United Kingdom. He specializes in monochrome landscapes. He studied at The Slade School of Fine Art from 1965 to 1969. During 1971 he moved near Haslingden and  did paintings of Landscapes for 2 years then he abandoned painting for pen and ink drawings, his work was inspired by Samuel Palmer. He worked as a postman from 1978 till 1985 to work as a full time artist, he then lived in Devon from 1988 till 2000. He see's color in work as an 'Unnecessary distraction', therefore he uses black and white. He is well known for his London paintings which were displayed in the National Gallery.

I particularly like these two examples of his work as they look quite gothic, considering their color and texture. I find it interesting how he hasn't used any sense of color. From the paintings the mood seems quite depressing yet calm.
