My second life second creation

My second life second creature is a mixture of a pale faced ghost and a raccoon. What I did was I used the clone stamp and cloned the body and fur of a raccoon and used it on the skin. I then made a pale white face as the ghost and that was my second life creation.

The Haldon Art Gallery

The Haldon Art Gallery was the second art gallery that I saw. I really enjoyed the Cadre Show. It had the a lot of interactive pieces that were fun and it had video games that were fun as well. You are able to participate and play with the art pieces and that is what made this one unique. Not all of the art pieces here were interactive but the interactive pieces were the most interesting if I do say so myself. They had one piece where you could use your cell phone to change the color of a pixel and it reminded me of the art project one of the students had in class where he would change the color of a pixel once a day. While I was looking at this I was trying to figure out where I had heard this idea from and it came to me that while we were in a critique one of the other students had come up with this idea so I smiled when I was looking at the piece. They had pieces were anyone could just make a video game which was pretty cool. They are able to interchange different ideas when it comes to these games and able to creatively come up with something different because at this gallery artist are allowed to exchange video games. All in all the second gallery was the most fun because you got to play video games and play with the art.

Pricilla B Varner at McNamara Gallery

Pricilla B. Varner has a sequence of photographs are very interesting in that she uses words in her depictions to grasp the audiences attention. Her exhibit Persuasion was in the McNamara Gallery and her art spoke to the audience literally, not figuritvely! She had all of her titles in French which threw me off at first but when she explained that she did it because she most people look at the title before the work I understood what she was trying to do. It confused me at first because she had English words in her work and French titles which sent me mixed signals. She uses words to display the persuasion that she is trying to get across the her audience. She wants you to look at the words and see the picture behind the meaning of what she is trying to portray. One thing that I can especially remember from her work is the image imprinted in my head of an Eiffel tower. The french touches made the names of the pieces make more sense. I believe that the words are truly what make a person stop and think about the image itself. Last year while we were in art 100 I remember people making art works with words and would put random text in there work about skiing or anything, but they did not think anyone would stop to read the piece. I believe that reading in an artwork is something unique and it pulls people into the work and when you have words that relate to the work and reflect the artist or are there for a purpose you draw people in to your work.

A'Riane Holliday Two by Lands at Sheppard Contemporary Gallery

A'Riane Holliday Two by Lands at Sheppard Contemporary Gallery The two by land at Sheppard Contemporary Gallery was very interesting. This gallery consisting of art from Nicole Donnelly and Katherine Sandoz has work that re-creates art work and makes it into something amazing. Donnelly has a type of style that shows the variety of landscapes and places in Philadelphia and her art is very intriguing. They both use amazing colors they both have a unique outlook on landscapes that create a very different but effective conversation piece to the viewer. One thing that continues to stand out in my mind is the use of the vibrant colors in there art work. They had amazing abstract art caught my attention, and the fact that they did some of there art on wood instead of the traditional canvas. They both use different techniques in this collaborative work.
