Master copy, Interior and Final Paintings

 

Master copy 

Practicing the colours used for Thomas Moran’s works.

Placing the paintings side by side, it looks like I needed more purple in the sky

Interior Space Paintings at North Spine

 

 

 

I was not able to blend the soft and the hard edges well, wanted to redo the paintings but didn’t had the time to do so 🙁

I found this assignment to be the toughest because of how much understanding is required of the entire space in relation to one another. There are so many objects hidden and clustered together in an enclosed space.  Also not used to working with a coloured background, but it was a good exercise!!

Final Assignments

 

The references I used were all pictures that I took personally in Hokkaido, back in December 2017.

Landscape painting

Prof Woon Lam advised me to lower the perspective/ eye level so that there is more depth because the front will look bigger compared to the back 😀

Atmospheric Condition

 

I wanted to achieve a night look but the sky that I painted wasn’t dark enough in the center, I was afraid of adding another layer as too much pigment might ruin the soft look I was looking for.

Image and Meaning Photo Hunt :>

Most of the images are pretty straightforward 

1) Something that is not “ntu” at all

 1

This photograph is my favourite as it is somewhat like a deception to the eye. This photo was taken at North Spine, near Mac Donalds but instead, it looks like an underwater shot. The blue windows attracted me to explore this area and I’m very satisfied with what I found. 

2) Somebody not studying in ntu

2

They were so nice to let me take a photo of them.

4) Useless image you see

4

I don’t usually pay attention to this kind of advertising because they look like scrap paper.

 

5) Useful image you see

5

The exit sign is pretty helpful to me to find the way out as I get lost easily and have poor sense of direction.

6) Nature

6

I like fluffy looking trees, which makes me feel more relaxed and calm.

7) Urban nature

Nature invading man-made structures through a hairline crack.

8) Urban

The blue windows gave a interesting colour to the whole composition

9) Singapore

This is a great symbol/ representation of Singapore as she is well known for its Clean and Green environment. In addition, the round green dustbins are very common here, and quite iconic as I have only seen such dustbin in Singapore. 

10) A place where Art is shown

10

The televisions at ADM lobby. Films, variety shows, can also be considered as Art. Someone in class also jokingly said that the trash can is where art is shown ??

11) A place where art is made

11

Architecture is a form of art, as well as for landscapes. Therefore, construction sites are places where all these were built/ made at. 

12) A photograph with a faculty

12

In my opinion, a faculty is a school, thus I took this photo of MAE, which was the nearest to ADM.

13) A photograph that shows what the Earth Observatory of Singapore may be about.

Extremely literal information of what they research on.
