Blog - 6 - Eastern Art

Eastern Art.
It influenced many religions and cultures because of its style and different characteristics. These arts are most are from Asia like Japan, India and others. Their arts mostly depict their gods like Buddha just like the arts  during the classical period.


For me as an artist, the arts beyond the west influences us in terms of style just like what is today, in Japan, their artworks was very famous even in other countries because their style was very good their artworks are called manga which is equivalent to comics in other countries but, their style was different from what we know as comics so they added a style in the industry of arts a good and remarkable style.


In China their arts mostly in forms of porcelain then they put their drawing there to make it more beautiful. The style of Chinese art affects the style of the pots and other things that they should put detail in their products so that it is eye catchy. Then lastly the Indian art, the most Idealistic art for me because they make their arts from what's in their mind. They put in their art what is in their minds. Just like now a days like the movies today like the Transformers the artist that first designed it, was what is in their minds. Also in their human figures, they always put many jewelry's to represent that their city is blessed with minerals.

Blog - 5 - Art with Motion

It's amazing how art and naturalistic is well represented in the means of art works. Every period of art has it's own expression and one of the periods that when we say motion, there's a light that will come off on an artist's brain, the Baroque Art. In that period, art is really in realistic form for me because as the five characteristics characteristics of Baroque Art is defined or enumerated you can really think that it is realism. This five characteristics are: grandeur, tension, motion, drama, and detail. In just three of it's characteristics will do for you to conclude that this style is realism.
In this baroque painting, you can see all of it detail, there are expressions in the faces so it has drama then, the motion it is well presented, the tension you can notice that the man on the left most part of the painting he has shown a little bit of tension because he's like doing a stretch like from awakening in the morning then, the grandeur, the magnificence of the painting, means beautiful just like the painting.

The Baroque period has contributed several things in terms of art and also architecture. In architecture their style was to put statues or sculptures in their buildings to serve as decorations and to represent their beliefs. I their architecture also they started to put oval shaped style in the design of their structures as shown in the photo, and also one of the characteristics of their architectural style that is similar to their art is the detail, you can notice that the buildings that they make is very detailed that was like every part and piece has to have.
