Description School work. We got the assignment to take a piece from the high renaissance period and redesign it as a t-shirt/post card/whatever. I chose Raphael's "Triumph of Galatea" fresco. Which, if you're not familiar with the actual image, you can see it here ->[link] I actually had a lot of fun doing this little pic, and I'm rather pleased with how it turned out, so that's nice. And I figured I'd share with you guys, since I don't have many fully finished images to share, as of late. :I So yes, enjoy! ^^

Composition wise, it looks like one of those art nouveau paintings. Yet at the same time, the use of strong lines and how structured the shapes are remind me of art deco paintings. It's a nice balance

I think this translated very well! And I like how you used the bow and arrow at the top to complete the "A" In Galatea.

Lovely redesign~ The muted colors remind me of autumn... also, I think I actually like this quite a bit more than the original... but then, cherubs kind of creep me out

Turtle-Arts In reply to Paleona [2013-05-07 20:19:20 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! And lol, I'm not fond of cherubs either. But really, in my opinion their bows were the only really important aspect to have in this version.

I had a similar assignment once, i had to take a modern day something and turn it into an art deco piece. i chose carmen sandiego. xD anyways, i love this, very stained glass feel.

Turtle-Arts In reply to mossyhairundys [2013-05-07 16:19:42 +0000 UTC]

It's a new professor. She's never taught before, so she's doing the class a bit different than the normal guy. XD

I see. Lucky you then. I think doing practical work for art history makes it more interesting doesn't it?

Well, just so you know ahead of time, BYU schools are owned/run by the LDS church, so if you're not Mormon, it might be a little odd for you. XD

oh man, I remember that picture from a college art class on women in art a few quarters ago. I think my teacher would be rather intrigued by this! As am I.
I really love this style and portrayal of her!
