Ben Rider

Benjamin Rider is a printmaking artist that speculuses in screen printmaking. His work is very colourful he’s also based in London. His paintings are also quite humorous and very child like I feel that was because of how colourful and cartoonish the illustrations it’s self is.

Analysation

I really love how carasmatic that this piece is it’s very intreging and interesting colour choices. The artist has used primary ( yellow and read ) and secondary ( pink ) colours into this piece. It makes it very bright and colourful bue to the colour choices swing used within the images itself. The things that I would change in this specific piece is the placing of the red and pink in writing I feel that it’s incredibly hard to read with the overlay and pink around it. I also feel that this piece has a very playful feel to it and because of this it also has a sort of childlike feel to it. The reason that I say this is because it’s very colourful and it has a raddit in the piece that looks cartoonish and because of this it reminds me of water ship down. It’s a kids novel that some readers might find disgusting it’s about rabbits that get there home demolished by humans and they have to fight for there freedom. Also it looks like the rabbit is taking a bite out of an ester egg that he’s enjoying that’s make the piece even more interesting because it still has that sinister feel to it because rabbits are usually interpreted as giving out the eggs to children so the fact that this ester bunny is eating it’s egg seems very off putting not to mentions that this is related to religious believe that the ester bunny gives out ester eggs because of the story in the tum where Jesus rolls the bolder down the hill to get out o this tum where he laid dead for a number of days .

Rob corradetti

He’s made a website which is dedicated to his theme of painting/ printmaking artwork called killer acid he’s has done quite a view pieces with this . Selling his work online and making teshirts of everything he’s made.

Killer acid

This is a printmakaing piece that’s done by an artist called Rod Corradetti this piece was done in 2011 in New York. And it’s a merge of ink and pen it’s in black and white but even so the piece stands out. The reason that I say this is because it’s very busy which would not work if the piece was in colour.

Analisation

I really like how this piece looks and the with the black and white tones that I feel relly incoproate well into this piece. The piece is very detailed am not a fan of the person in the piece but we all have our own styles. I do like the amount of detail that’s been put into this print. I relly find this piece interesting it’s very detailed and because of that it’s intriguing. The things that I would change would be the tonal value of the pieces it’s very eye catching but it’s very bull with only three tones in this piece it makes it look less appealin. What I feel that if the piece had more saturation or more shading into this piece it could make it pop a lot more that what it is at the moment. Also this piece has a very distorted look to it the way that the piece looks like it’s moving at the back of the pyramids.

What is my favourite media ?

My favourite media in printmaking is screen printing. printing is a very good media because you can leave your screen in the oven whilst you go to your station .The effect that screen printing has is very vidrebent. I also find it very helpful to get other stuff done when you’re leving the screen to dry . For example I could get a Lino piece done or a cupule of pieces in the time it takes for the screen to dry. One media that I have always went back to after the years of me doing art is painting as much as i enjoy printmaking painting will always have a special place in my heart .Its what made me full in love with art and I’ve progressed my painting skills throughout the years of me studying art and wanting to take it up as my profession.

What I plan to do after college?

What I plan to do after college I think that i will continue to do screen printing in the future I just find it very interesting and I would like to improve in this media . Also I would love to develop my skills in painting and drawing still life’s and portraiture another thing that I would love to do is learn how to do 3D drawings after this year and then hopefully when it’s time to leave for college they will be up to standered. I will also like to try and get my portraiture up to standered and maybe make one massive print of a portrait if am happy with it.

SCREEN PRINTING

Screen - draw a picture and then overlay it with tracing paper after that you try to get it as accurate as possible.

get a screen that’s specifically made for screen printmaking.

textile acrylic paint in order to atcheve a good printmaking piece.

Get paper and put it underneath the screen .

then put the acrylic paint on top of the screen .

Try and add a lot of pressure to the screen so you get a decent print.

pop art

It started in United Kingdom ,also took of in the United States during the 1950’s. This moment was challenging to troditinal artists because it’s about using bright colours.

Andy Warhol is a printmaking artist / pop artist of the 1960’s his worked is known for being altered as art history and it’s not hard to see why . His artwork is so different compared to what other artists do the reason that I state thats is because most artists shy away from cartonnish styles because it’s not protecully wanted or memeradle in the eyes of many traditional artists . The colours that are used in this piece are very vridrebt and the tonal value is also very interesting he’s used a shade ( which is black) which is good because it makes the piece stand out a lot more along with the green background. It also has something entreging and alorling about this piece. The reson that I say this is because pop art was just coming about in the art community at that time therefore most artist where trying to get into this new era of art.

Analisation

The portrait of Monroe is not just bright and colourful it’s also fun, he’s made one of her most noticeable aspects of her appearance the focus of the piece which is the hair. Like I have mentioned in this easy her hair is one of her many noticeable characteristics he’s made her hair much more vidrent in this piece of printmaking artwork also he’s given her red lips like she has in her movies and he’s shadowed it out the coners of her lips much like the original photograph.But the exaggeration of it is no mastake I think he’s done this to make the main focuse of the face her eyes of you look closely he’s used a be saturated light blue on the eyelids and a lighter blue for her eyes. I feel that it makes the eyes pop next to her light pink skin tone that Andy Warhol used for her face. The one thing that I have noticed in this piece is that all of the colours are all the same tone.But the one way that worhol gets that tonal value is by using a shadow that’s underneath her chin. This a black shade which we where taught in school to only use for tonal value and this piece is a prime example of that. Notice how he’s done the same on the hair as well and how that looks it creates depth in the piece itself. The picture in black and white at the bottom of this paragraph is the reference photo for the picture that Warhol has used for this piece. So when people tell artists or even sometimes it’s artists that tell other artists that using a reference photo is cheating and Warhol works prove that this is a wrong statement because you would have never have guest that he used a reference photo to do this piece. This way of working isn’t only good for final pieces but also good for learning proportions and tonel value.

Am going to be talking about a painting that was called Meiji Emperor and Empress/ autom colours and the artist was a man named Chikanobu Toyohara . This was seen as a romantic piece because of all the bright colours and with a painting with a lot of red in it could also mainly used for Valentine’s Day so there’s a romantic scene that’s already coming together. There was a lot of demand for these printmakers to make a school that was named Ukiyo - printmaking school.

500 the first tecquenique for printmaking where used in Egyptian times what’re they would print is fabric. How they would go about doing this is that they would get a stone and carve into it and then they would put the piece of fradric on top of the wet already carved stone and then put pressure on the fabric and it would make a print.

MY FAVOURITE MEDIA ( printmaking)

My favourite media of printing is screen printing I love how it turns out. I also really like how it looks if you mess up because when you do mess up it looks like it’s ment to look like that there is nothings that can go wrong with the piece because I’d it does it’s always fixable and very simple to do. But at the same time there is a lot of preparation that comes with it you need to get the eathin ink out and get your screen out as well so it’s all ready.you also need some tracing paper to focus on the drawing at hand so the drawing can than get placed on the screen an and then you put the paint into the oven ( not with the tracing Paper) for about 30 minutes and then you take it out and get your tracing paper whit the drawing on it and then you go to an oven that you then but the screen on top of the tracing paper and it’s prints the image on the screen. And with that you then get your ink and pick what ever colouryou want to do the print with .

MY FAVOURITE PRINT ARTIST ( Lichtenstein)

I really like how Roy Lichtenstein has done this piece he’s made it quite introcrite and when it’s a really simple image but with all of the colours it looks like it has taken along time and effort that has went into this piece.

[weirdartstuff2020]

ROY LICHTENSTEIN

The reason that I have picked Roy Lichtenstein as my printmaking artist is because I’ve always loved his art work. How he interpretes pop art and how his pieces come out. The type of printing that he does is screen printing and this is my favourite media of printing because I love how it turns out and it looks really good with mixed media as well.
