Different Types Of Art Is Used Within The Pattern Of The Wood

The Woodlands Man Shirt is a garment made by the Native Americans from the great lakes region in the 18th century. This piece was traded to early French explorers in New France which extended from Louisiana to Canada. This shirt was worn by high status Native Americans made from antelope which has some form of early tattoo work done to it. The interlocking designed tattoos represent the sacred Thunderbird who is an important traditional being to Indian spirituality. Some principles of design used in this piece are rhythm and symmetrical balance and some elements of design to note are shape, visual and actual texture, and pattern. I chose these principles to analysis this piece because they are the ones that apply the most to this sculpture and can help to apply context. This also shirt has elements from Woodlands, Great Lakes, and Plains regions, and the complex designs may have been inspired by tattooing. The materials used in this shirt are both functional and ceremonial to the Native Americans but more specifically the Dakota tribe. This shirt is unique because it is only one of 35 remaining from the early 1700s making this piece really rare and hard to compare to because of how few there are available.

During the eighteenth century, due to the industrial revolution and the advent of steam power and other modern devices the once lush and plentiful trees of Italy had, were cut down in order to fuel the fires, create more power, and drive the revolution. In the closing paragraphs Biagio states "trees seem almost to have no right here since my brother left or since they have been swept by this frenzy for the ax." (Calvino 217) And that the arrival of the French and Napoleon's army, the chopping of the trees went on. There are very few forests left in Lombardy as they were described as in the book, if any. According to The Columbia Electronic Encyclopedia Lombardy is now "the chief commercial, industrial, and financial center in Italy, and Lombardy is the country's leading industrial region." This would explain why people decided to cut down the trees in order to help make way for the growing economy.

Acclaimed artist Helen Frankenthaler created a work of art that was influenced by abstract expressionism. His, Snow Pines (2004), predominately utilizes woodblock printing technique . This artwork is considered a Woodblock prints--a block of wood on whose surface a design for printing is engraved along the grain. Frankenthaler doesn't utilizes any form of shapes in her artwork however, she does uses pigments mixed with water that are then lightly brushed onto a piece of wood. While observing this up close (seen in the smaller picture), you notice scratches of wood lines in the background of the artwork. This was achieved by the technique of woodcutting-- make a woodcut without a press by placing the inked block against a sheet of paper and applying pressure by hand.These lines help illustrates the wood texture of the artwork. From glimpsing for the first time, I noticed the translucence of the color illustrating the light, vibrant tone .The colors used in Frankenthaler’s art are mostly comprised of warm colors--yellow, red, orange and pink-- and cool colors: green and blue.The artwork flows from warm colors to cool colors.The color scheme is analogous as the piece include variations in color between hues adjacent to one another on the color wheel, such as yellow-green, green, and blue-green. Due to the bright

Texture and pattern are very easy to identify in this painting. The street’s cobblestones show texture and pattern in the way that they are arranged. Texture is also demonstrated through the paint strokes on the buildings, the tree, and even the sky. These thick, uneven strokes add a layer of depth and texture to all elements of the painting.

It was during the Middle Ages (300-1000 AD), that various distinctive forms of art began to emerge in western Europe. A variety of significant mosaics, buildings and other forms of art came from this time that continue to be analyzed in the present. In the book Early Medieval Art, Lawrence Nees successfully provides an intricate interpretation of these various art forms that developed in this time in history while allowing the reader to conceptualize the emerging cultures of the first millennium in Europe. Nees is able to do this by outlining key aspects of the studied works of art that symbolize how life was at this point in history. At the beginning of his book, it is apparent that Nees seeks to provide a less traditional view on art at this time when he states, “I offer a different story of early medieval art in place of the more traditional tale of the decline of Rome and triumph of Christianity”. Nees’ thesis is subsequently inexplicitly stated to analyze the role of tradition in early medieval western art and its transformation as time progressed. By following a non-conventional thesis when writing this book, Nees is able to contribute a new perspective into the overall topic of medieval art.

‘Calavera, Skull 4’, 2009, is a series of plasticine on wood type of artwork by Grupo Mondongo is one of the most eye catching pieces of art at the Museum of Fine Arts. Grupo Mondongo is a group of Argentinian Artists; Julian Laffitte, Agustina Picasso, and Manuel Mendanha.

I chose this piece because it is not only beautiful from afar but also up close.

The Innu and the Innu both have very special beliefs.They both believe in myths. For example, the “Caribou man”.This man tells the story of an Eskimo man. But the myths are different. They both also hunt for their food. They hunt by fishing so they eat fish. Hunting caribou is another way they obtain food. You wouldn’t think these tribes would have art in common but they do. Making some considerable

The brush that felt glazed with the abundant horde of a thousand corn leaves rusting from left to right stroked the blank canvas with an orange that reminds me of the Arizonan sunset. Another stroke and the background color of the canvas caught no sign of white. The neutral vibrancy of the painting that was the color of a broad lion was complete and was set for the next coat of paint.

Intarsia is the woodworking technique that uses varied shapes, sizes and different species of wood that are fitted together to create a 3-dimensional, mosaic-like picture. Intarsia is created through the selection of different types of wood, using their natural grain pattern and color to create variations in the pattern. The different species and colors of the wood contrasting lights and values. Similarly, grain gives the art amazing texture and makes it very realistic. After selecting the specific woods to be used within the pattern, each piece of wood is then individually cut, shaped, and sanded.

In this painting, two visual elements stand out over all the rest. These elements are that of color and texture. Color in art is an element that has to be phenomenal in order to get recognition and true appreciation from the viewers. In this painting, the colors are rich, vivacious and standout as dark, but bold representations of the uniqueness of it all. The use of brown and yellow and green and grey and white all come together in a harmony of color and unity. As for the texture in the painting, it is that of brisk and roughness that is nature. The sharp edges of the bucks rack and the cold, rough edges of the dead tree show
