Art of Anthony Rigoni(Tony Yorkie Silky)

The techniques I used for this art piece is cross-hatching, scribbling, and shading. I used pencils to make the values of this piece. I used a ruler to draw the vertical and horizontal border lines in this piece. The gradience of the drawing go from black to white and visa versa.

For this project, I used a ruler, a Bristol Board, and pencils. First, I used a ruler to draw the horizontal and vertical lines. Then I used a pencil to draw the values of this artwork. The rules of value that I have used are cross-hatching, shading, and scribbling. The scribbling forms a fuzzy texture. The color for this piece is achromatic. The shading forms a soft texture. The gradient starts off white and finished to black lines.

 For this piece, I have applied the contrasts, overlap, and gradient spatial cues. I used different sizes of pencils to make this artwork. The colors I have used are black, gray and white. For the gradients, the trees closer to the viewer are darker while the castle behind the trees is lighter. In addition, the grass becomes darker when it is closer to the viewer. For the overlap the trees that are closer to the viewer's point of view are larger than the castle. For the contrast, I have applied this to the grass and the sky. The contrast in the sky represents how light the scenery is during the day. This is the reference image I have used to make my depths project. After receiving some advice, I redid the composition. I removed the building and added a tree. I also made the castle look more visible. Finally, I made the plants darker.

. For this piece, the lines are mechanical. I gave the shapes a rectangular look. The balance for the composition is symmetrical. The piece I created is called Gears in Motion . The purpose of this piece is to create an illusion to confuse the viewer. While the viewer is looking at the figure, which are the black shapes, they might also be looking at the white background, which is the ground.

What I like about Dean Byington's The Black Sun is the monochromatic color scheme. The different shades indicate the detail of the landscape. It also takes advantage of the vertical perspective. It almost resembles the style used in Chinese paintings. Philippe Decrauzat's Flag Wave creates the illusion of a waving flag. Its solid, curvy lines start apart at the beginning of each side of the composition. The lines come together to make the viewer look like they are seeing a real flag waving in the wind. John Santoro's Beach: Winter Morning and Beach: Summer uses thick paint lines to simulate life by the seashore. The cooler colors used for the water give the viewer a sense of rest and relaxation. The thick lines are noticeable in Summer: Beach because it makes the viewer feel like they are getting wet at the beach. Hiroshi Senju's Waterfall uses a greyscale color scheme to give a sense of nostalgia. The soft lines represent the soft, wet texture...
