blog 3



The following three pieces of artwork are done by Miya Masaoka.











Miya Masaoka's appeals to me because of its simplicity. The Big Idea in her artwork is nature. The great detail in her work although its simple is astounding. I like how her work is in black and white. I feel like it adds to the meaning of the images. I want to know she chose cockroaches and bees in these images. I think the use of cockroaches is to further accentuate the contrasts in these images, just like the black and white does. If I remember to keep things simple, my artwork will have a greater impact than if there is a lot going on.

These three images were created by Maciej Hajnrich.












The artwork done by Maciej Hajnrich is very interesting. There are bold and bright colors and lots of details. I believe that the Big Idea is chaos. I think that because there is a lot going on in all the images but they come together to form nice images. One thing I can learn is to be bold and daring and try new things.
