Blog Entry 5 -Project 1: Research

I think the way the artist tries to incorporate a lady in a dress in every scene is very interesting. She seems to have a lot of self confidence in herself also because her about me section says she does a lot of self portrait work and most of her self portraits contain her in the nude. I noticed her work is also dark, which fits in with her style pretty well. I feel like if I studied more into her work, each image has it's own back story to it and they would be pretty interesting.

His work is in all black and white which is something I like to see. It lets me focus on the entire image other than just a part where the vibrant color makes you focus. His work seems to flow very well for this reason. Some of his work is very complex, while others aren't. One piece that stuck out to me was the one with the boat in the sky. Clearly him and I have the same thoughts that the sky is just like water at times.
