This illustration is by Audubon who was a French-American ornithologist, naturalist and illustrative painter 1785-1851.  I really like the accuracy of his work and the compositional quality.

This Navajo blanket really appeals to me. I love the bilateral symmetry within the design and the bright red elements of color amidst the earth tones. The design has a nice sense of movement with the zig zag motif .

This by the artist Claude Monet. I like his use of the colors that bring a feeling peace to the painting. His technique is different and you have to step back to see the the depicted scene. It looks different when viewed from close up.

Here is a canvas oil painting done by Leonid Afremov. It’s entitled: Farewell To Anger. This is a perfect example of the type of fine art I’m drawn to. There’s vibrant colors that make the design pop. I also love the subtlety of the painting. Such as there being not much detail on the figures within the painting itself. Yet you can still be able to clearly tell what is being represented; like the couple walking.

The illustration I’ve chosen is from an older graphic novel I used to read as a kid. This was the basis from which I got a lot of inspiration from as a youth, when it came to developing my own illustrations. I loved the clean lines and certain anatomical traits you could get from the many different graphic novels out there. Graphic novels in general are what gave me my push to try and create my own comics as well.

The advertising logo I went with is for a clothing brand entitled: TeeTurtle. I like that it’s simple and gets the job done without much effort. Just like many of their shirts do as well. The rounded lettering appealed to me as did the cartoon turtle accompanying the text. The darker shade of green along with a lighter color of green was aesthetically pleasing for me.

I don’t really have a definite type of typography that I find most likable. What I do quite enjoy the most is when typography is joined to create a distinct image that encases the typography itself. Especially when that image and the typography go hand in hand to tell a story of sorts. It’s these types of examples such as the one shown below that I find the most fascinating.

# data[].attributes.body
The textile design I chose to go with is a Japanese textile design. I love the dragons and particular color palette that was chosen for this piece. I can sort of just get lost in the design if I stare at it long enough. The positions of the dragons are placed perfectly in my opinion, and give a sense of fluidity throughout the design.

Typograpgy is a unique style of art and can be precived in alot of different ways. I really like the ones where theres a main word and phrases that are assoicated with this word. theres differnet feeling that you can get with each phrase which makes the art more indepth and connectable.

This oil painting is made by artist Pham Anh that depicts the neighborhood in Ha Noi. The mood that this artist brings into his painting is amazing since it looks warm and peaceful. He has recreated the environment so well that every single details are so real such as from those interlaced electricity wires, paper flower bushes to the stains that attached on those bright walls.

This amazingly beautiful lady here is created by illustrator Dao Trong Le. He is one of the person that inspire me the most in this digital painting field. This illustration was made 5 years ago and it still delivers the ethnic vibes from the clothes the girls wears along with the pattern on the handkerchief. The warm lighting is also one of the factors that help this painting has a great outcome.

This World Wide Fund for Nature poster used symbols and minimalist storytelling to raise awareness of the threat of deforestation. The three Chinese characters on the left can be translated as Forest, Woods, and Tree, each one reducing in turn, and the final symbol, stripped of its leaves, is not a character but a cross.

This retro vintage style typography is made by designer Kris Chu. The phrases can be generally translated as: "Even I smoke weeds for a hundred years but it still can not compare to one minute I beside to you." It kinda weird when it is translated into English, but this typography is a type of wordplay in Vietnam that allow you to read like a poem.

This type of textile can be seen frequently on the floor in East Asia countries especially in China and Vietnam. The way those textile was made from the combination of different shapes, lines and patterns create a harmonize flow when you look it into a bigger picture. These kind of textiles are also the base for student who want to study in Art and it helps them to be creative on their own project.

This painting is "Blue Ridge Falls" by Bob Ross. An excellent painter with the kindest of hearts. I love these darker tones with a mystical vibe to them. I love colder weather and looming landscapes so this definitely is one of my favorite pieces.

From the video game MineCraft, this is art for one the creatures in the game. I love the creepy bone-like structure of the animals and how they are portrayed, not as inherently evil beings, but creatures doing their best to survive. With this realistic approach the artist stays true to the original color palette and design.

I love attention grabbing play and this takes the cake. The eye catching red against the light background will first draw the viewers eye. From there, you read the sign and do a double take before seeing what they mean. Even if you may not be thinking about it, such an ad will stay in your head.

I'm obsessed with coloring pages, especially ones with or messages. My favorite type of typography is simple, uplifting messages, because a reminder never hurt anyone.

My favorite fine arts movement is the impressionist movement. I love the shift of ideas that occurred. Instead of perfecting portraits, people started painting messy imperfect paintings of subjects that were considered taboo and intimate at the time. I also love that impressionist artists were the rejected artists and they started their own movement. They found beauty in the unattractive. I also like the pastel colors used and how soft each painting looks. One of my favorite artists from this time is Mary Cassatt. She was probably the first female artist I ever learned about.

# data[].attributes.body
I am really attracted to simple illustrations that use thin lines and simple color schemes, such as the primary colors. I like how simplified the artist drew the clothes and the subtle gradient on the skin. I think I like the simplified look in illustrations because of how easy and effortlessly it looks to draw. I found this piece on pintrest; the artist is @meru_illust on tiwtter. https://mobile.twitter.com/meru_illust/status/1011637637394755584/photo/1

For the first entry of my curated 2D Design examples I’ve chosen this oil painting by Isabel Emrich titled ‘Speaking from the HEART!’

I love how the water reflects the sunshine on her face and body giving you the feeling of a warm sunny day. I also really enjoy the pop of aquamarine as the background. Really makes me feel like she’s in a pool in some tropical setting.

This is a page from one of my favorite mangas’ called Fruits Basket by Natsuki Takaya. What attracts me the most about it is its simplicity in the character design in both its human characters as well as in their animal forms. The softness to the character features, particularly in the hair & eyes, is another thing that draws me to this style of illustration.

As a dancer and as someone who mainly teaches femme styles of dance POSE is by far one of the greatest shows to represent the underground scene (which was the birthplace of these styles) in a long time in my opinion. From the composition of the actual pose being made by Indya Moore to the vibrancy and contrast in colors between the outfit, makeup, background & title this particular advertisement from the very first season of the show is one that I draw a lot of inspiration from in not just my art but also in my day-to-day life.

# data[].attributes.body
This style of typography is one of my other favorites besides graffiti. I really like how all the letters flow almost perfectly together whether they are connected or placed in a way where they simply fit. I also really find it trippy yet eye-catching that the three primary colors are used in a way to give the illusion of it being in 3D. All these elements combined together give the phrase a sense of whimsy.

# data[].attributes.body
For my last and final selection I chose this traditional mexican style embroidery for the textiles design. I love how bold all the colors are as well as the two-tonedness of all the flowers in this design. Also the way this fabric was woven gives you a sense that you could feel the difference in texture throughout the entire piece despite it being in photographed form. As a Chicana this also holds a very special place in my heart.

I really love this painting made by Tanya Shatseva. I think her unique take on an eye is really interesting and can have a variety of meanings. It reminds me a bit of surrealist art.

This is an illustration by Ikegami Yoriyuki. I think it's a very sweet picture, I love the little story you can imagine behind it. The colors are fantastic, the rich blue of the water really catches my attention. I really like the character design as well, I enjoy the simple, cartoony style.

I really enjoy 90s era fashion  advertisements from magazines. I think the designs are so interesting and fun, and really draw the eye. This is a Steve Madden ad from 1998. I love the dramatic way the girl in this is drawn, as well as the goofy pugs around her. The shoes are the center of the ad, the product being advertised, but there is still a fun story going on around them. I think this is a great ad to look at, and is also very effective.

I really like magazine cut out letters in typography. Individually, each letter is different, different colors, fonts, and from different articles. Despite this, every piece works together. It creates an interesting look and fun atmosphere.

This piece is done by Love Ricci, I really like this illustrated game piece since it shows not only the character but as well as the animals emotions. Its like the beginning of an adventure waiting to begin. I really like this piece the most since it it tends to have some interesting back story that makes you wonder what happened to him and his pets or friends. What attracts my attention from this piece the most is the design of the characters but also the characters features and and the shades of colors used.

Ever since I saw this piece by Claude Monet in an art history class I took last semester, I couldn't really get it out of my mind. I don't usually find much meaning in paintings, but I really liked the colors on this one.

This illustration by Becky Glending really caught my eye. The lighting was really interesting to me and it felt like there was a little bit of worldbuilding going on behind it. I really like the complexity as well. You can kind of tell what kind of drinks they have on the counter and the blood bags are a really cool little touch considering they're (I assume) vampires.

I really love how unique typography art really is and how it can be perceived in many ways and not just one way. I really like the ones where one word can make an image using the words hundreds of times. There are some where you can use strong phrases or words like for example when Barak Obama ran for president and one the posters made was a poster of him made with the word hope. That one had more depth since people saw hope in him during the election.

This is a scene from Eiichiro Oda's manga series One Piece. This is one of many examples from this manga of the beautiful and unique cities that populate his world.

I really like floral patterns because of how quaint they look. I like wearing textiles that have fun colorful patterns and stripes. I own a lot of clothing with stripes on them, I think it’s because I associate stripes with cartoon characters haha. Texture also plays a big role in what textiles I like to wear. I like clothes that are velvety and silky.

This oil painting "Roses of Heliogablus" was painted by Lawrence Alma-Tadema in 1888. The mood of the painting is bright and cheerful. What I love most about any art pieces, is when there is symbology involved. The roses which symbolizes beauty, lust corruption and death at the time period when the painting was made as it represents the story of the Roman Emperor Heliogablus. Hence the name of the painting. Another thing I love about the painting are the colors used and how animated it looks. The colors are soft and vibrant while the roses looks like they're fluttering down.
