Oops. I am about to start over and we only have a week before the final critique. I think that this was a really important step for me to make because although the previous piece wasn’t necessarily going badly, I did not feel as I was growing as an artist by making that piece and wasnt practicing new skills which I wanted to try. I also don’t think that that piece would have taught me more or given me a more definite direction, so I decided that it was a better use of my time to start a completely new piece. I did a little research on Monet and Van Gogh, and studied their impasto technique. I think that with the time I have remaining, it would be most effective to copy on of their works to truly understand their technique and how they have their impasto style. Im really looking forward to copying their work because I think it will reveal more about the art that I want to create since I am so drawn towards their paintings in the first place. The practice will allow me to assume a more concrete way of painting and will hopefully open some new doors/ideas for my content and subject matter going forward. I want to learn from these artist’s use of composition and application of paint as well as their specific color schemes. That is why I am copying the piece by Van Gogh, “Autumn Landscape”.
