my project is summed up really well in these few words:
" reimagining your friends through the lens of some iconic portraiture"- p. kinha.
I learned a lot about what type of art people really like. I also learned that people are drawn to more loosely done or contemporary works. I hadn't developed any narrative for my works (not planning to have any) and I noticed that one critic wouldn't stop asking for this. I hate to say it but I left this critique with a cloud over my head.... I was hearing more of who I should paint like (artists whose work is extremely different from mine i.e. marlene dumas (below)), and what I should paint about.
