Tree Art

Finally the time has come to post about the last tree I painted as a part of the contemporary art tree project I invented and already previously posted about several times.

The last tree is one of the trees I like best not only because of the concept and colour but also because of what it represents - Pop Art - one of my favourite contemporary art styles. I'm sure Pop Art is one of the most known movements, so I'm not going to go much into the details about it. I can only say that what I like about it is its kitschiness and irony, connection to adverts, comic books and popular mass culture - all the very visual forms of expression!

I also thought it would make sense to put all the rest of the trees already mentioned before together in the same post. So here they come one by one:

Although I actually painted the trees a while ago I enjoyed the whole process very much as I learned really a huge deal about the mentioned (and not!) movements of contemporary art and I was quite pleased with the results. Definitely with time I discovered (also with some bloggers' help :)) some mistakes I made representing each style - so there are lessons learned and things to work on! I'm very curious about your thoughts and feedback about the trees. Which one is your favourite and which do you like least?

Out Of My Tree

A while ago I engaged myself into a project in order to come to understand better and learn more about contemporary and avant-garde art movements. I chose a number of different art styles and tried to use their main techniques and characteristics in order to draw a simple tree. Today I am posting two of 11 works I have in total - the first tree is based on Cubism principles and the second one represents Abstract Art movement.

I also couldn't stop myself from adding these colourful mosaics - the first inspired by cubism and the second by abstract art. I especially like the paintings-elements by Braque and Łempicka on the first one. By the way, Łempicka is one of my favourite artists - I will be posting more about her soon!



And from the second one - of course the great works of Kandinsky and Joan Miro!
