Surreal almost optical illusion. Your eyes automatically go to the laser eyes then go around the whole image itself. Very complex details and overlaying ideas. It has a very vintage setting based on the hair and the laser glasses (1950s). It has a sci-fi effect. The value isn’t super varied mostly a very grey piece with bright highlights.

# data[].attributes.body
Surrealistic idea the lack of intense color enhances the piece. Her gesture almost conveys a headache of some sort. This seems like it should be part of a story or a book cover. The brain has so much symbolism along with her gesture. A very light piece with an interesting message.

# data[].attributes.body
This piece seems like it should be in a short animation because it has so much movement in the petals surrounding the girl. She’s not exactly looking at her sword but is looking off into the distance. I love the way cod was used to express her emotion in the piece. The details on what she’s wearing are so stunning with the bright colors and delicate flowers.

# data[].attributes.body
This has a very spacious feel because of all the white but is balenced out with the muted pastel tones. Starts very structured and realistic at the bottom but becomes a more abstracted idea as you get to the top.

# data[].attributes.body
The little girl looking at all the animal heads almost puts a sad dramatic curious feeling in the picture. Shes looking around at all the animals curiously but seems afraid that they’re all only heads. A almost all blue piece that highlights the emotions.

Humorous cats who are afraid of their own tails. They have a very soft fuzzy look about them almost like you can imagine how the fur feels like.

# data[].attributes.body
Lively with light hearted bright colors. This conveys a soft sleepy emotion using very blended and cloudy effect.

# data[].attributes.body
Iconic monsters portrayed with elegant details but still keeping the creepy factor of each character. Each character was fully developed with pen and ink. Texture and depth is displayed with hatching and cross hatching.

# data[].attributes.body
Very childish monster-under-bed like creature. This feels very youthful and creative. The details are incredible.(remind me of where the wild things are illustrations

# data[].attributes.body
Grotesque creepy creatures but conveys a soft emotion. The value between the blacks and the amount of whites are very controlled.

I love the use of negative space around the piece to create a sense of emptiness. I also appreciate the use of the yellow tint inside the bulb to show a change in contrast from the outside.

# data[].attributes.body
The negative space and use of dark and light makes the piece very cool. I also like the use of the grays to add another colour and more dimension and textures into the piece.

# data[].attributes.body
I love the simplicity of the piece and the art style used to create a natural yet abstracted piece. I also love the use of pen shading to show contrast in the darker areas.

I like the realism and craftsmanship shown. It also has a nice texture and shows value using only graphite.

This piece really stood out to me, the creativity in this is outstanding. The contrast really brings out the value of the fish and the light bulb. The texture on the fish and the bubbles really make it look real.

I like the use of contrast between the dark parts that are in the shadows as opposed to the parts in the light. I also like the repetition of the windows and straight lines that are used throughout the illustration.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the value and texture that is shown through using only cross hatching. Also the contrast with the street lamp.

Lauren- I really appreciate the cross hatching that went into this to show value.

Dakota- I like how the hatching is used more in the darker spots and less in the lighter spots.

# data[].attributes.body
i love the detailing on the face and how they used blue to deepen the shadows in the face. the hatching technique on the face gives it a realistic skin texture
*LaVerde-Wow, this one is stunning. Such incredible depth in the shading. So much detail, incredble energy and movement. Excellent composition. Great pick!

I really like the movement of the watercolor, the micron pen really makes it pop. It has a bit of a dull look, rather than brighter colors being used.

I like the use of cross hatching, and how all the fish are grouped together so tightly. It gives the illustration a cool effect. Jacob

I like how the purple fades out from the middle. I like how the trees are black in the white create contrast. I like how the lightning is just white and its going through the dark.

I like the contrast of values and colors between the building and the trees that surround it. I also like the watercolor technique that was used because in some spots it is very tight and detailed and others it is more free form.
Lauren- The house's shape is really interesting and the way it is almost looks like it's going to fall over.

# data[].attributes.body
The paper really shows through and the artist uses highlights more than low lights to create the image.

# data[].attributes.body
the details shown throughout the portrait caught my eye, the values in the shadows bringing it to life and the colors used that blend well together
*LaVerde-ridiculously amazing illustration. Love the chiaroscuro lighting that adds so much drama to the piece. So much detail, beautiful craftsmanship.

# data[].attributes.body
I like the shading done only with the pen and how it can show so much texture and contrast only with hatching and cross hatching.

# data[].attributes.body
I like how it goes from the dark in the front to the light in the back as if its fading away. I like how it's surrounded by white space and it makes you focus on the middle.

I like the use of different textures/ pen techniques. It is also cool to look at because of the different designs. Jacob

The artist could have made the painting with all black and white but they chose to use a whole spectrum of colors. I like the technique and harsh lines.

*LaVerde-Love this one!. Total fashion influence on the pug... perfect fit for you. I can see why you picked it!

I like how the colors are used and how they go so well together. I like how the paint is just kinda splattered on there instead of neat.I like how at the bottom its red and then it works up to white with pink.
