I chose an art piece from a female artist Paula Modersohn-Becker called “Self-Portrait with Two Flowers in Her Raised Left Hand”. In this piece, the artist\u00a0portrait her upper body from head to upper breast. She was pregnant and have\u00a0two flowers in her hand. Besides knowing she its the first woman who drew\u00a0themselves during pregnancy, my focus of this painting is more on two flowers. I\u00a0got my inspiration from the flower and began to create my way in interpreting my\u00a0personality by using flower. I didn’t copy the vertical composition of Paula’s\u00a0piece. In fact, to broaden the flower as the main part, I made my piece into a\u00a0horizon composition. I picked foxgloves and pink tulips as two main flowers in\u00a0my piece. Foxgloves on my right side represent the. part pf me with solitude\u00a0attributes. However, the pink tulips represent my eagerness in making friends\u00a0and being united. The conflict of two flowers create a slight contradiction of my\u00a0way in contacting with the exterior world. Even the flowers represent the\u00a0differences, the colors still remain the same. Which means, no matter how I am,\u00a0I am still being myself — the combination of two conflicted attributes. I am really\u00a0appreciate that Paula’s art piece utilized fauvism and German expressionism\u00a0ways of drawing. The color she used to portrait the face and the contour is bold\u00a0and flexible. Rather than a smooth transition of color, she create blocks of colors\u00a0to form a face. I tried her way as well too learn about using bold colors for face.\u00a0As a result, I painted my nose into purple and combining all types of colors on\u00a0my face.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":8731,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[77],"class_list":["post-8730","student-work","type-student-work","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-integrative-studio-seminar-1","tag-fake"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nXiaochen Zheng -
