I went over board with over defining everything in the painting. There is some confetti in the work, but its lost due to my over defining all of the edges. I now know to loosen up and try to focus on only the areas that matter. Thanks again to Mr. Gurney for pointing this out to me.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-60949994679463867632008-03-31T10:02:00.000-04:002008-03-31T10:02:00.000-04:00The more abstract you get I think the lighting and...The more abstract you get I think the lighting and correct color choice become more important because there is so little information left to convey figure and form.<BR/><BR/>Cornwell is certainly one of my favorite illustrators for his use of chunky paint.<BR/><BR/>The Russian Impressionist even moreso.

It speaks to the fact that as modern imagemakers we're all influenced not only by recent ideas from art history, but also by photography--especially motion blur and depth of field effects.James Gurneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01870848001990898499noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2999230124118604245.post-43335588085221580292008-03-31T09:21:00.000-04:002008-03-31T09:21:00.000-04:00Personally, looking at the paintings of Beraud and...Personally, looking at the paintings of Beraud and Canaletto in comparison to your own examples, I think that your method of confetti helps make a more realistic representation. Having everything in focus and in detail doesn't really create a strong focal point, and our eyes don't naturally work like that. It resembles how in animation everything is in focus, where in reality the farther away something is, the more detail is lost and the more simplified the form becomes.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
