Cimabue and Giotto were both considered to be two of the most important artists in the movement from Medieval to renaissance art. At first glance, Cimabue and Giotto’s styles look practically the same. But under further analysis, the difference between each artist’s individual styles shows more prominently. By using the Artist’s renditions of Madonna, we can really pinpoint the difference in their individual styles as well as the similarities. Let us start by observing and going over the…

greatest influences to my art work and why I pushed myself to become an artist. This was imaginary friend growing up. Heaven Gate (like the cult but unrelated) was a girl who was different, but was strong and beautiful. Basically everything that I wanted to be growing up. I wanted to be her. And over the years the design for her has changed, but she has stayed the same to me. Always elegant, graceful, smart, and strong. When I was alone growing up, I used to play a lot of video games; I would…

of the movie “video games don’t die, they evolve”. As a Graphic Design Art major that hits a soft spot because as an artist you understand even when you put your passion into your work; you can always create new ideas and evolve with the new trends. Artwork in my eyes is creativity, imagination, and telling a story. Phil Fish communicated “every form of artwork or expression man kind has ever made is put into a video game”.

(1) One of the songs I love very much is “Lay me down” by Sam Smith. This song is a love song that the singer wants to give a message of the controversial issue of same-sex marriage. In the video, a gay couple is having their marriage in the church virtually, as the gay marriage is illegal in church. Besides, the structure of the song, I think this song belongs to the popular culture, because of the song is typically targeting a large amount of audience through the music industry. Also, this…

Taking the time to figure out who you are as an artist, and what kind of lasting impression you want for your fans visually, is just as important as the music you create and perform. I see many artists spending very little time on their image, which should be part of their overall “package.” If you want to be a successful artist, you need to look and act the part. If you expect the public to buy your records and merchandise, buy the magazines you’re featured in, pay to see you perform, etc.;…

The movies Amelie and Pay It Forward, along with the music video “Where is the Love?” portray the importance of helping others. Although, these films are older, their message of performing acts of kindness without expecting anything in return is not something that should be considered old fashioned or be…

Modern art is complex, fluid, and constantly challenged when it comes to defining what makes it art. Modern art is made up of expressionism and Impressionism. It is comprised of Dada agricultural and industrial design as well as surrealism. Modern art can even be described as being site specific to a certain location or needing human interaction to be a finished piece. I define art as being anything an artist claims to be art, and I believe that anyone can call themselves an artist. An artist…

For this museum project I decided to take a visit to the Perez Art Museum Miami. During my trip to the museum I really connected emotionally with what I viewed, furthermore comprehending my perspectives in comparison to the intent of each art piece. Symbolically the most beautiful piece was a painting of a man, who in my opinion represented modern power. The painting is titled, "Morthyn Brito III," by the artist is Kehinde Wiley, who was born in the United States of America. Wiley finished and…
