Composition Continued…..
These three images were originally intended to go in my ‘Masking tape” post, showing how much the tape bled and pulled off the paint.
However after looking through these images I started to realise how interesting they were and decided to write a post about them. These images pic up from the ones in my previous post- the only difference being instead of using a piece of paper to crop them I used my camera.
I started to think about how something so intricate would look on a large scale, and what affect it would have?
The main difference between these zoomed in images and the actual painting is that in these images there is both more and less going on.
In the full sized paintings there are more lines, patterns brush strokes ect, but due to their size the viewer fails to see what becomes the main vocal point of the zoomed in pictures: the subtle hue and tonal changes as one colour leaks into another, the patterns created by the brush strokes. Also the shapes are bigger in these images which creates a ‘vocal point’ in the painting- something that is missing in the actual paintings.
