Goya~ Black paintings

I have attempted this composition in past paintings but never ended up with a finished piece. I would like the image to act as the figure on the right hand side acting as the negative influences of society on a person.

Resizing images for digital print (Krita)

Image
Working with Images Computers work with files and as a painting program, Krita works with images as the type of file it creates and manipulates. What do Images Contain? If you have a text document, it of course contains letters, strung in the right order, so the computer loads them as coherent sentences. Raster Data This is the main data on the paint layers you make. So these are the strokes with the paint brush and look pixely up close. A multi-layer file will contain several of such layers, that get overlaid on top of each other so make the final image. A single layer file will usually only contain raster data. Vector Data These are mathematical operations that tell the computer to draw pixels on a spot. This makes them much more scalable, because you just tell the operation to make the coordinates 4 times bigger to scale it up. Due to this vector data is much more editable, lighter, but at the same time it’s also much more CPU intensive. Operation Data ...

Shani Rhys James is not alone among artists in exploring a single corner of human existence time and again. Predominantly domestic, her niche also resonates outwards and inwards with unspecified anxiety; not that everyone requires explication or that, in being non-specific, it’s a state with which the viewer cannot sympathise. In many ways her work is serial self-portraiture, in which a variation of narcissism wrestles with deep and chronic unease. Her milieu appears to have the sub-text of a Paula Rego and, sometimes, the indulgence of a Bonnard, though in the latter, and at the practical level, mainly with a less subtle palette. The Rego-style inside story s...

Dealing With Our Bloody Past: Repression vs. Recognition of American History in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining

Dealing With Our Bloody Past: Repression vs. Recognition of American History in Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining Kameron McBride, Ball State University This essay explores how director Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining establishes the Overlook Hotel as an environment where conservative complacency has become the norm and all hope of progression is lost. By using a maze motif and the backdrop of Native American genocide The Shining  explores and critiques how modern America was constructed. Introduction In 1980 anticipation was high in the United States for Stanley Kubrick’s new film The Shining,  as it would be the iconic director’s first foray into the horror genre. Yet, when when the first trailer for The Shining premiered in the U.S., audiences only witnessed one horrific image to tease the film. The trailer started on a shot of a hallway ending in an elevator. Audience members may have noticed the Native American motif on the elevator doors and the columns in the hal...
