ART CRITIQUE ON NIA'S WORK


The picture Nia used as her inspiration for this project is called "Christina's World" by Andrew Wyeth. When I look at her project I instantly see the blue water in the background. The water stands out the most to me because it's so blue and well blended together. The water also looks so realistic and beautiful, that's why I think it draws me in the most. I also see that the tree branches and birds lead me to the city. Another thing that is leading is the twirling color on the orange tree that led me to the ground. I also saw that the railing led me to the lady on the bench. Nia's project gives off a sence of peacefulness and wanting. In my opinion the girl on the bench seems like she could either be peaceful or longing for an easier life. If I could name her picture I would call it "The World Through Christina's Eyes."  Color was used in this project by expressing the peacefulness of the scene she recreated. When I look at the colors of the building in the city, I get a feeling of  excitement. Color is also used in an analogous color sceme on the orange tree. In addition,  blues in the water are blended together to make a really realistic looking river. In my opinion the colors on the buildings signify adventure. The colors tell me that the city is filled with adventurous places to explore and it makes me want to jump into the picture and go exploring with the girl sitting on the bench. I believe that Nia recreated this picture because she wanted to add fun and excitement to the woman's life. I think she also wanted to give the women more freedom to move about her life. I personally loved her recreation, it was beautifully done. Her colors blended well with each other and made the picture a delight it look at. I hope that I can create a project that looks as good as this one does.
