Art

CURRENTLY STUDYING ART IN THE 6TH FORM, THIS IS MY FAVOURITE SUBJECT. EVER SINCE THE AGE OF TWO I HAVE LOVED DRAWING, AND THEN AS I PROGRESSED, OTHER FORMS OF ART. BUT THEN AFTER TAKING ART AT GCSE LEVEL, MY LOVE OF THE SUBJECT GREW BEYOND IMAGINATION AND I MANAGED TO SCORE AND A*. OF COURSE, THIS INSPIRED ME TO CONTINUE WITH MY ART EDUCATION, AND WHAT I WILL BE EXHIBITING HERE ARE SOME OF MY WORKS OF ART PRODUCED OVER THE LAST YEAR AS WELL AS SOME OF MY SKETCHBOOK WORK THAT I HAVE DONE FOR THE PROJECTS.

FOR EACH PIECE THERE IS A SHORT EXPLANATION OF WHAT THE IMAGE IS DEPICTING AND MY REASONING BEHIND IT.

ENJOY.

THIS IS MY EXPRESSIONIST DEPICTION OF 'WRATH,' ONE OF THE SEVEN DEADLY SINS. MY LATEST ART PROJECT HAS BEEN CENTERED ON THE SINS AND THIS IS ONE OF THE PIECES FOR IT.
WRATH IS DEMONSTRATED HERE USING A METAL SHEET WITH A BOTTLE BROKEN OVER IT. USING THE STYLE OF AUSTRALIAN ARTIST ARNULF RAINER, I HAVE USED A QUICK, BOLD AND EXPRESSIVE COLOUR SCHEME OF BLACK, RED AND YELLOW. THE METAL SHEET WAS ABUSED USING AN AXE AND A HAMMER. THE SHOW OF PHYSICAL VIOLENCE AND FIREY COLOURS SYMBOLISE A FIGHT. THE BOTTLE OFTEN USED AS A WEAPON IS SMASHED INDICATING TWO MEN'S SINKING INTO SIN AND VIOLENCE.

THIS IS MY DEPICTION OF 'SLOTH,' ALSO IN EXPRESSIONIST STYLE. THE ARM WHICH RESTS OVER THE ABYSS OF SIN HAS GIGER-ESQUE STRANDS OF SIN SWALLOWING IT UP. APOLOGIES FOR THE LACK OF DETAIL, AS SOON AS I GET A SCANNER, I WILL SCAN A DETAILED VERSION. THIS WAS ORIGINALLY BASED ON GREENDAY'S 'LONG VIEW' THE TALE OF SOMEONE SO LAZY IT'S UNBELIEVABLE.

'GANGLAND TAKE-OVER 1'

USING MY PREFERRED GRAPHIC STYLE, THIS IS THE DEPICTION OF A BRIEF GANGLAND BATTLE.
HERE, A NERVOUS DOORMAN GLANCES OUT THROUGH THE WINDOW IN THE DOOR. THE FUTURE CRIME BOSS THREATENINGLY LEERS FROM OUTSIDE AS HIS TOUGH BACKUP'S SHADOW LOOMS IN THE ALLEY WAY.

'GANGLAND TAKE-OVER 2'

THIS IS THE SECOND INSTALLMENT.
HERE, THE NERVOUS DOORMAN'S GLASSES CAN BE VIEWED SHOWING THE SILHOUETTE FACES OF THE FUTURE BOSS AND HIS BACKUP. THE RED SYMBOLISED THE VIOLENCE WHICH IS ABOUT TO ENSUE.

'GANGLAND TAKE-OVER 3'

THIS IS THE THIRD AND LAST DEPICTION OF THE TAKE-OVER. THE VIEW IS NOW OUTSIDE THE BACK ENTRANCE TO THE CLUB AS THE NEW BOSS' HENCHMEN APROACH THE DOOR WHILE THE BOSS LOOKS OUT THROUGH THE WINDOW IN THE DOOR.
