Week 1
To start the year, I have begun with finding a style of painting which suits me, as well as a theme to work with. So far, I am thinking of going ahead and using quite a bit of texture in my work as I am very comfortable with using it. I am also thinking of heading in a light and dark direction, implementing the effect of contrast in my work, however, I am still trying to figure out a purpose behind this idea. When it comes to texture, an artist model would definitely have to be Vincent van Gogh. Not only is the texture used in his work something which I would like to work with, but I also just find his art work as some of my favourite.
I want to find a meaning to go behind the Chiaroscuro style which I hoping to use in my work.
