Patrick Caufield left school at the age of 15 and then joined the air force at the age of 17.​

"After Lunch" 1973 was a famous art piece of his, which has a unique take of pop art and its culture, as it has a 3D and simple base with a pop of detailing in the back.​

"Autumn Fashion" 1978. In this piece he uses a huge variety of patterns and colours to contrasts each other. The whole of the piece is very basic except a small bit of detailing on two of the oysters on the plate, this is very effective as it contrasts different types of media in one.​

This French artist, Julian Pacaud is a digital collage creator. He specializes in creating illustrations and is now focusing on exploring the thought of parallels world and perpendicular dreams. It shows his work of this through collages and a various number of textures and images. He works with very monotoned and grainy images to make what he creates more effective to the work he wants to express. He tends to use mostly plain coloured backgrounds and then cut out and laying detailed images on top, this gives an illusion of  another universe or unusual scenery.

This famous female artists who is well known for her physical collages very simple yet surreal collages by using mostly magazines and books for her images. She takes images and layers them in a unique way to show inimitable perspective in everyday life. She commonly uses images of children and adults and incorporates them with landscapes and space to create collages like this. Her unique take or everyday life through simplistic collages of unrealistic events has an effect on her audience, she does this to make her audience create a narrative of their own from her collages by giving them very little to work with. These condensed pieces are very effective. ​

Olek graduated with a degree in cultural studies, then went on to win The national arts club award for one of her sculptures.​

Olek first used crocheting in 2003 when she first moved to the United states. Her work includes sculptures, installations, inflatables, performance pieces and fiber art. In this work she used the technique of crocheting.​

I picked this artist especially for this piece, I think it's very creative and unique. I took time and effort to create this finely detailed piece of textile work and the choice of colour just makes it pop. It can link to the theme of pop art as of the bold colour and uniqueness. ​

Ana studies painting in the faculty of art. She commonly uses embroidery, yarn and wool to create realistic but contemporary landscapes between tapestries and sculptures. She works mainly with embroidery and uses different techniques depending on the subject. What caught my eye with her work was her use of off the canvas work. The way she drapes her yarn while still using it to create a landscape shows and effective use of media. Her work can link to pop art through there type of textures she uses in her work.

Gabriel initially first studied graphic design but then went onto fashion and architecture in university. Using high quality and vibrant colourful Gutermann thread, fastened to minimalistic frames of powder coated steel, Gabriel creates architectural site- specific illustrations. Gabriels work is extreamly eye catching and draws you in. He has a taken a unique aspect  of life and visual realisty and created it hisown. The media he uses and the way its creatated adds texture to his work.The vibrancy and designs he uses can colaboraate well in the pop art industry as it as similar aspects to pop art.

Svetlana is usualy a fashion designer who creates wedding dresses, but collaborted with the painter Nikos Safronov to create "Paint Me Over" a textile inspired canvas painting line on gowns she created. This mix of media used is eye catching and intriguing as its not usually created espically with two proffeshionals from different textile background. I absolutly love the gowns created in this line as they are all so unique and have grave details and colours used on them. You can easily see the textures on the gowns, and it adds a lot of depth to the designs. This piece can be linked back to pop art in the sense of turning a simple thing into a great work of detailed designs.

Toshiko creates crochet sculptures in unique and unusual designs. This specific piece of work knitted wonder space 2 was created using 650kg of nylon, all knitted by hand in the space of a year. She was inspired by the Spanish architect Antino Gaudi. This sculpture was exerted not just to be seen by the eye as art but also as a children's soft play that anyone can visit and enjoy.​

In Toshiko's work the colours she uses are very pop art infused and I need to corporate this into my final piece as I'm going to use very bright and pop art inspired colours as well.

Danielle is a contemporary textile artist who uses knit work in her designs. This work is called Jess Lee of the Sea and was created in shape of the Norman window, which is what the window is called which has the view of the sea. All Danielles work have a strong and meaningful background and it is what gives her inspiration for her pieces. The piece was created with broken pieces of fishing net, too corporate sustainability in her work. She also used recycled wool, thread and fabrics to create this.​

This links to my final piece as in all Danielles worked she has a strong backs story and concept to what she creates. I want to use how vivid her work portrays her work on how I want to show my concept strongly in my final piece.

Perera uses the textile method contemporary & transitional printmaking many methods: laser, sand blading, engraving etc. She takes inspiration from drawing upon her background as a doctor, scientist and artist. All her work is very abstract and unique. While not including much context with er work she lets her audience embrace it and let them take what they want from it.​

What I like about it and how it relates to what my final piece will include is that her background is very simple but she corporates basic line printing with small detailed sections. This is exactly what I want to do with the presentation of my final piece.

Jacobson is a contemporary textile artist who uses the method of embroidery. Their work is very abstract and detailed, they have created a few pieces like this where they take inspiration from vouge magazines and recreate them using embroidery. The artist embryoids physically altered picture to appropriate her work.​

Their work includes very neutral but complex background with bright color's overlayed to and texture. This links to pop art and expresses the art of design in this style. I want to include this base line in my work so I can make my focus pop with colour but also have a complex but neutral background to add texture.

Kirsty uses recycled and reclaimed materials to create art pieces using the embroidery contemporary method. Shes uses those types of materials to responded to throw away culture and  consumerism. She also uses decarded household items to challenge the preconceptions of embroidery. Her machine embroidery is inspired by news sellers to mock the issues. ​

I want to include Kirsty's  concept of including discarded household item in my final piece. I think it’s a good way to recycle while including a unique way of presenting art.​

what do you like/ dislike about the work? why?​
i like the repletion of the work and the use of bold and neutral colours but i dislike the simplicity and the object they picked for this piece​

emotional impact. how does it make you feel?​
it hasn’t got a strong impact on me as there’s not much context to the work and i dislike it​

does the composition effectively move the viewers eye around the impact?​
no as it is a repetitive pattern as is all the same as of the design and simplicity​

positive and negative space​
it is a balanced and positive space as it’s filled and complete​

what colour system/ palette is used​
it has a neutral base and a pop of red in it  to make it more interesting to the viewer and add substance​

what mark making technique does the artist employ​
screen printing

# data[].attributes.body
what do you like/ dislike about the work? Why?​

i love the colour differences in the transition of the same work as it bounces off each other very well and shows a deeper meaning to his work. I think he could’ve merged the colours and repetitive images better, so it slowly merged all in one.​

emotional impact. how does it make you feel?​

it makes me feel like it’s showing the contrast in colours to resinate beauty and show dark and light. The downfall of her fame, sad​

does the composition effectively move the viewers eye around the impact?​

yes, it makes the viewer look around the images at both sides and see the differences in colour but similarities in images​

Is it positive and negative space​

this is positive space, and it is balanced​

what colour system/ palette is used​

They used bright bold complementary colours on the left to contrast with the dark black and white tones on the right​

what mark making technique does the artist employ​

Screen printing

what do you like/ dislike about the work? Why?​

it looks very realistic which shows that he’s a very good artist. But it’s very simplistic and boring not showing much through this art​

emotional impact. how does it make you feel?​

it’s doesn’t have an emotional impact on me​

does the composition effectively move the viewers eye around the impact?​

it makes the viewers eyes look at the detail that he created​

Is it positive and negative space​

positive space and it’s balanced​

what colour system/ palette is used​
it uses primary colours and it works well as it’s quite nostalgic​

what mark making technique does the artist employ​

Printscreening​

i like the main image and how the blue of her hair stands out in the image because it contrast with the plain black and white colours around it ​

I dislike the speak bubble as I feel like it gets in the way of the image a bit and ruins the emotional impact it has on its audience ​

it is an effective piece as the title and the image are a sign of distress and builds context for itself in your own mind ​

not as in the middle it has its focus and around it is a plain background of water, except from the speak bubble and the main image the eyes don’t really move​

it is positive space and it’s balanced ​

the colour palette is muted and bland with a pop of dull blue on her hair which is effective as it draws the eyes ​

oil-paint on canvas ​

# data[].attributes.body
i like the expression and action in this piece as it brings more of a narrative and a story to the board but i’m not a big fan of his style of painting and presenting i think it look ld abit childish and young as it’s a simple but simplistic piece.​

i believe it has a strong background story and meaning behind this piece, but it is hard as a viewer of the art to interpret the true story as all you can get by the images in a plain explosion. Context behind it if you knew the artist would bring the story to life more as they’re army planes and roy fought in the army in ww2​

the composition does make your eyes more around the canvas as it’s a larger image and there more going on than his other work​

it is negative space as the canvas isn’t filled and it’s harmonious ​

the colour palette used is primary colours and it is a prime example of basic paint colours ​

it is oil painting

# data[].attributes.body
don’t like anything about this piece as it is very childish has a look as it’s unfinished and uses colours which don’t look very good as they’re bland​

it's a comedic piece but it’s very tongue in cheek so isn’t very funny ​

the composition does make you look around the piece as they’re a couple of things going on in it, but it is still very simple, so you don’t look for long​

this is valences space as it’s not completely full, but it’s still got images and abit of detail​

it is complementary colours and primary colours but it’s very dull and boring ​

oil painting

# data[].attributes.body
This Roy Lichtenstein piece is called "it's about time". I think this art piece is very abstract and unique. Lichenstein has used a lot of patterns and methods to create this, and it works very well. He chose bland colours to do the background patterns and then used yellow to contrast and pop with the backgrounds. This can be interpreted in so many ways and the use of back-to-back faces is very effective to the audience as its not seen a lot. He has layered the layers and images very well where everything can be seen. The printmaking method he used was oil painting and it is effective as he was able to  capture all the detail he needed to. What I'm not very fond of in this piece is that there's not much in the image that gives the audience context to help build context. Its good in a way that the audience is free to interpret it in their own way but its abit confusing when you don’t understand why the artist designed it is this way. I feel like he could also of used a brighter and more unique colour for the woman's hair to make her stand out more, as the hair also blends in with the background on the left-hand side. With the background its very unclear on what it is supose to be and how to visualize the whole concept of this as its hard-to-understand what's going on. What I can interpret from this is a woman who is trapped but wants to feel free and is hiding behind a brave face, when she's truly not happy.

I like the use of pop art colours they used and the way they presented their work in a grid. But I dislike the font of the words and the way you can't see all of it.​

To me it doesn’t really have an emotional impact the word "power" usually has a strong effect on work or whatever it mentioned in but in this sense there's no effect as it's not a meaningful piece to me.​

The composition doesn’t really make the viewers eye move around the screen much as there's not much going on as its plain and simple.​

This is positive space and its harmonious and its neat and equal.​

Primary colours are used in this piece ​

I think the layering technique they used with the different pieces of text was effective and eye catching. I dislike that there's not much pop art colours involved ​

The emotional impact of this piece is strong as it has a powerful message and its clear to the audience, its empowering.​

The composition does move the viewers eye around the piece so that they can read all the different texts.​

This is negative space as it has a lot of blank space around it and it's not even on the page​

Primary and complementary colours are used ​

Serigraph

I like the images and colours the artist used, and it makes the piece stand out and makes it a very eye-catching art piece. I don’t like how difficult it is to read the text she used, and the audience would struggle to read it​

It’s a meaningful art piece as it’s a biblical reference and uses a very popular and powerful man who made a big impact on society ​

Its positive space and its balanced space​

Its contrasting colours ​

ARTS THREAD Profile - ARTS THREAD​

What I like about this project is how he involved fashion with objects. He combined his clothing with chairs into it to make it very abstract and individual. It is more a picture piece outfit than practical, but he connected his vision and title of his work all together.​

If I was involved in this project, I would've done his mood boards and representation of the objects differently. I think they are very good but to an audience who don’t know much about his work his moods boards like the one above of the chair doesn’t express and envision his work broad enough. So, what I woulve done was cover chairs with fabric tightly in the appropriate places to represent figures on a catwalk.​

What I like about her portfolio is her layout of her work, she presents it very neatly with also combining the chaos her concept in her work. I also like the clothing she created to do with her concept as you can invasion what the outfits are trying to express​

What I would do to improve her work would be the pieces of work like the top left one which I think doesn’t express her concept of evil or the theories. They are very plain and have nothing to do with her work, so I would've included the information on them into a mood board or her description instead.​

# data[].attributes.body
ARTS THREAD Profile - ARTS THREAD​

What I like about this portfolio most is the mood boards and collages. She layered and placed her images very accordingly where you can see her work, but the background isn't just plain; it has a lot going on.​

What I would've done differently is her title of her work and how she expressed her concept through her work. As a firsthand viewer you want to immediately understand the concept and connect it to the clothing, but with her work it's difficult to do. I would've renamed her title and design an outfit that  think connects better with her concept.​
