Pouring synesthesia Art: Black Night
The final pouring paintings were painted against a black paint. I used a vinyl record for inspiration. The hues were pretty dark in the final parts of the songs. You can see the videos of these artworks in my Artsy Sister Tiktok and Youtube pages. Let us go back to dealing with the songs. The first artwork shows the moon and the stars. The second painting has a nice black hole wave. I used a funnel that had tree holes. This created this fancy looking pattern. The ripples look every beautiful. I hope you find my new artwork amusing. My...
The Saints and Virgin Paintings of Botticelli
The first saint painting features Saint Francis of Assisi. He is a very important Catholic Saint. He traveled as far as the middle east to convert the "infidels". I think I mentioned this saint before. I hate repeating myself. Lets just continue. Here the saint is surrounded by angels. This arrangement is very similar to Gothic frescoes. They always had a lot of golden decorations. The next painting is called "The Last Communion of St.Jerome". When a Saint, the Pope or a lay follower is near death, he usually receives his last communion. This communion is different from all the...
Pouring Synesthesia Paintings: Golden Blues
I made two new pouring paintings. Both feature the color blue and yellow a lot. They are going with the flow of a twilight song. This is not from the movie twilight. I mainly played classical music before painting. You can see the video of this artwork in my Artsy Sister Youtube and Tiktok Channels. In both paintings, I used a mold to generate the artwork. One mold had a few holes. The other had a lot. I hope you find my new artworks amusing. I photographed two painting details. Well, this is about it. My name is Teresita Blanco,...
Sandro Botticelli (1445- 1510) Jesus, Portraits and Myth
Sandro Botticelli is an early Renaissance artist. During his time, he was among the first to move away completely from Gothic. His background and figures still carry a bit of the stylized gothic style. Over all, he attempted to mimic nature to the best of his abilities. During this time period, a return to the Greek meant a resurfacing of human idealism. Now being a human is all that matter... Still, the church continued to call the shots in this Greek world. However, depictions of pagan Gods was no longer a taboo. With a rise of kingship and banking, there...
John William Waterhouse Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood Greek Art
This is the Last post on John William Waterhouse. This one will focus on Greek myths and women. Its a real bummer that a Romanticism artist made lots of Greek artworks. This subject is common for the enemies of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Still, Waterhouse took this classical subject matter with a Romanticism twist. You know, most of Waterhouse subject matter is depiction of women. Unlike his contemporaries, he is not judgmental about women. He shows different faces of them without succumbing to petty moralism.Now that this lil analysis is over, lets just get the show on the road. The first...
