For this project, each student was assigned a famous artist to do a painting in their style, but make it original. My artist was Gerhard Richter. Gerhard Richter was a painter of the abstract and impressionment movements in modern art. He used lines of different color to make an overall painting on a large canvas or wall. I chose to do a painting of bamboo, and add pops and lines of different color to the background that compared and contrasted the greens of the bamboo.
I feel like this project really helped me grow as an artist. Before, I didn't have a lot of experience as a painter, and this project showed me how to achieve value using acrylic paints. I feel that I am a better artist than I was before I started this project.
