An Optical Poem - Oskar Fischinger: 1938

An Optical Poem by Oskar Fischinger 1938, Turner Entertainment Company Music: Franz Liszt The object of today's assignment was to watch 'An Optical Poem, by Oskar Fischinger, without succumbing to a stroke. All jokes aside, this short, for a lack of a better term -'music video', is a collection of colors that are carefully chosen and portrayed, tickling the eye with every coming spectacle.

First Charcoal Experience - "Master-Copying" Kentaro Muira

The goal was to recreate the work of an artist of your own choice, so I chose the manga artist Kentaro Miura, because I am a huge fan of his writing, and I think his art kicks butt. The the right is the piece in question, from the manga Berserk. I took this and stretched it out to 4x9, and then devided it into equal rows of squares. I scaled that up to 8x18 and translated the squares to 1 inch each in pencil on a large sheet of watercolor paper and then began to copy the art as accurately as I could. Here is the stretched out art piece And here is the process of my work. Tah Dah! The finished piece is what lies inside all that artist's tape. Hopefully when I pull it off tomorrow it doesn't tear anything D:
