Lisa Reihana

Why do I like this image? I like this image as it looks delicate and peaceful. The girl is floating as if she has no worries in the world.

How would I make this image better/Different? I wouldn't change anything about this image as it looks beautiful. instead of the darkness at the top I would change to a light as it will look more happier.


Jeff Soto
Why do I like this image? I like this image as it gives creative side to what I like and would like to know how to design. I like the colours that have been used and how it is abstract.

Seek Exhibition

1. HOW WOULD I PHYSICALLY DESCRIBE THE EXHIBITION?The exhibition was very interesting on how they are going to present all artworks. There is going to be artwork on walls of the gallery, little artworks covering the ground floor to give away at the end of the exhibition and bags of clothing on hangers to show how many children died of poverty.


2. WHAT DO I THINK ARE THE SEEK ARTISTS ARE TRYING TO ACHIVE BY MAKING ART?
I think the seek artists are trying to achieve making art by helping others get involved from the child povity. They want to give instead receive.


3. WHAT DO I THINK ARE THE SEEK ARTISTS ARE TRYING TO SAY THROUGH THIS EXHIBITION?
Help child povity and get involved with one another as everything will be easier than by yourself.


4. HOW WOULD I DESCRIBE THE COLLABORATIVE ELEMENTS OF THIS EXHIBITION?
If you are in a group and decisions aren't working out, bring your ideas together and see what you can come up with, it should be a lot easier than disagreeing and having a leader. You shouldn't need a leader, everyone is equal in different ways.


5. HOW WOULD I DESCRIBE THE DIFFERENT SETS OF VISUAL AND PHILOSOPHICAL VALUES THAT ARE PRESENTED IN THIS EXHIBITION?
The exhibition has large drawings on walls, little drawings on the floor and bags on hangers, there will also be a large wall for children to draw and paint on as that is what it is all about. This is completely different to any other exhibition as you aren't allowed to touch artworks, or draw on walls so it will be a very exciting exhibition.

Expect the Unexpected

1.

Why do I like this image? I like this image as I love the colour blue and because it is giving an effect that looks real.


How do I think this image is made?
I think this image is made with chalk, water and maybe dirt for the darker spaces. I think it would take at least a whole day to draw as it look so real and would need a lot of patients to design carefully. Also you would have to pick a nice hot sunny day as if it would rain the chalk would run and muck the drawing.


How would I make this image better/Different? I don't think I could make this image better as it looks great from my eyes. Seen as there is water in the background, I would probably have water at the bottom or a plank so people can think that they are walking over something steep.


2.

Why do I like this image? I like this image as it give an effect to the street, there is a lot of detail and if I was driving on that road I would look twice at what it was.


How do you think it was made? It was made with chalk and maybe bits of material to give it that detail. I would say it would take over a day as it looks like a big drawing and to have all the detail would be very difficult.


How would I make it better/Different? It would be very hard for me to make that drawing better as it looks amazing. If I have to draw something on that same road I guess I would draw cars driving past as it would look normal but really the cars aren't there.


3.

Why do I like this image? I like this image cause it looks pretty and delicate to who it was for.


How do I think it was made? I think it was made with print/stamps and maybe transparency gel. Also the background looks like tea or coffee run through the paper/card to give that effect.


How would I make it better/ Different? I really like this image and wouldn't want to change it. Any ideas I would say maybe college and indian ink in the background.
