Unit 5 - Groups

Group of faces of the cartoons and video characters we all love as children growing up. It's simple art but its a group a faces I liked and wanted to share.


A group of animals of what look to be a horse leading and elephants following carrying objects like statues and naked women in gold cabins. Salvador Dali's work is realism at its finest and Iwould like to not only see more of his art works but read more about his life and the person he was.

Unit 4 - Human Head

Another fantastic and uncanny human head sculpture by Meuck is of a older man resting his head. The scale is rather large as you can tell from the women in the picture but the detail is astonishing making it look lifelike if the woman was not in the picture and your cropped the background out u would never be able to tell it was not a real human being.

ThissSculpture of a deformed human head is on the exterior of the Church of Santa Maria Formosa, Venice. The head has been interpreted as a talisman against the evil eye. It depicts the head of a human thought to be suffering from Proteus syndrome. So it might be set out to be realistic but it not a normal face and what a normal human looks like and seems to have its own style with detail to the lips, teeth and eye sticking out.

Found this one last minute and even though there's a body too it I wanted to post it because its amazing art. Meuck is a one of a kind artist, can't help but notice his baby faces all make the baby out to be older rather than the normal young, cute and innocent.

Unit 3 - Ancient Art

So from the top we have the Colliseum, The spheres of Costa Rica and the egyptians pyrmaids, all of which are part of ancient history and an art to us today. It is amazing how societies so far back in time had the ability to create such spectatcular phenomenas. The colliseum structure is what the norm was was many buildings back in Rome and could be consider their icon. But more so of be an icon are the pyamids of the Egyptians because they are unique and whenever you think or see a pyramid you think of the past Egyptians and their cultures with the pharoahs in power like Rameses.

Unit 2 - Sculptures

When it came to sculptures, which go back so long ago there are millions of sculptures and statues out there in the wolrd today. After searching for what stood out to me I found two amazing sculptures of a beach sand and statue of the one of the Greatest basketball players to ever walk the earth. I hope no one takes offense to the beach one but when I saw it I couldn't believe the texture could every come together to form this- from the black color hair... all the way to the toes.  The scale and proporitonality is unbelievable.

Unit 1 - Contour Lines

My appreciation of art in Unit 1 came when I learned contour line and decided to do some research on what other artists have produced. I found a website with some drawings. I know they are not all exactly what we talked about but I liked them. I posted my favorite above.
