Art Project: Considering my work in the real world

What influence could your project have in real world?

- I intend to create a book. The illustration will encourage the reader to listen to particular songs. I will create a book for curious readers of all ages so they can learn more about the fascinating recent history and culture.

Will your project show a point of view or show something that might make people think differently?

-This book will change young generation perception and will remind the influence of the late 60s. It will also explain how nowadays art has been created on that. Mostly, the part of senior society could make a link between the younger society. Also, I can concern the cover approachable for children as a activate book. It has an appearance of the comic strip, therefore even more I am convinced of a positive teenager's attitude for instance.

How else does your work have influence?

It is not a superficial example, however, it will be Bob Gibson. It is a designer from my very first research post regarding comic strip. His art is so positive and colourful. Without his influence, I could not choose the form of my book.

Why is it important that your work has a real world context?

Maybe this artwork will stop people for a while. I mean, by a reflection of eventful culture. Sometimes we need to take a step back, to realise something.

    Your project is in an unusual position - your source material is almost 50 years old, but is representative of a group that is still popular today. So is your book an educational piece for your generation or a nostalgia piece for people that were there? You have made this link and some interesting observations about it, and this is worth following up on in a later post.

Set Project: The exact reason why and sketches

 I have not straightened why I chose to illustrate the lyrics. As you may have noticed, I know quite a lot about music from the last century and always dreamed about the connection with visual art. Especially in this case, when the album is laid out as a story. Therefore, taking advantage of this opportunity I intend to make something familiar using illustration. You see, songs have a lyric - a story. And I want to share with those, by giving my version. In fact, Primitivism is related to the 60s pop culture and the insights I will publish gradually. The album that I chose is unique in terms of the tracklist.  Sgt. Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band  has no gaps between tracks. Therefore they made an album that sounds like one continuous song. ''Highly debated it is considered as a one of the first concept album'' (The HollyHobs, 2020). Some of the songs had been established according to the newspapers headers/stories.  The reasons why I chose this relation to the theme ...

Set Project: Sketches and coming back to the first plan

In the last days, I concluded that I should focus on the reasons why I choose this topic and the style of this project. I think I started to be weak and not sure what I want to do. I think the reason is in a large number of researches. Same with techniques and artists to look at. I summarise that I am not capable to mix various inspirations at once. I came back to my first inspiration Anto van Hertbruggen. Because I always wanted to make art like that, no matter what's it gonna take. Here I will discuss the elements which I want to use to combine this pice in one. Here is the whole work with the background. As I mentioned before, I looked at how Anton work on his illustrations. He usually filling few sheets in drawings (as layers for one illustration).  First, I found a great view on google maps. I am interested in the territories of Canada and the northern landscape. The place is in Northwest Territories, in Yellowknife.  click I sketch this place on two sheets of paper. Then...

Welcome to my blog!

Tell me something about yourself:  I am a young artist studying IYZ Art&Design with Graphic Design BA, in De Montfort University. Live in the Leicester city centre. My pathway started since I have been influenced by a close family by Claude Monet’s works. Paintings made by my uncle’s hands were great copies. Those pieces of art have been surrounding me still. I have been studying at Art School in Bydgoszcz, were I gain helpful skills and workshop.  I would like to explore more possibilities to share my skills. The significant key of my artworks made by oil paints is the variously, including different textures and mediums. I’m sure that our expressions and feelings made us artists. In my artworks, I’m trying to take after my deep feelings of research and my inquisitiveness. Furthermore, I’m fascinated by the 50’s and 60’s century artists. Especially, Futurist artist like Boccioni, Silva, Gonzalez. Their appearance have been a tremendous impact on my art.  Claude Monet...
