Brandon - Midterm. Critique



















Picture 1
A very interesting view on perspective in what has been described as 6-point perspective. Not wonderful spatially, but very interesting to me none the less.

Picture 2
Lost&Found. One of my favorites. I very much enjoyed playing around with some of my favorite artists' works: Dali's Living Still Life and Chicago by Nadir Afonso.

Picture 3
Entitled Quadrality, I really like this one and how I started to explore just going off my emotions. Very unrealistic, but it did get me interested in the Italian Futurist movement and artists (and musicians and the like).


Pictures 4-6
These three are demonstrations of a bit of perspective combined with wire working that I've found to be very interesting. Depending on which viewpoint one takes, the object can be perceived as one full object or rightfully as two separate pieces. I did not count these towards my 5 as they were not really for any class project, but I found them cool none the less.

Picture 7
Perhaps the only drawing I've done that I'm actually proud of for it's realistic nature, this was of the second model I believe.

Picture 8

I've added in some more somber images to reveal my actual feeling on the church during the medieval ages.

I think in conclusion I very much enjoy toying with my ideas and expressing them (if on paper, or in 3D, so be it). I look forward to the more free part of the class to be.
