Expressionism
is the tendency of an artist to distort reality for an emotional effect. Expressionism reflects the artists’ state of mind rather than the
reality of the external world.
Expressionism can be defi ned as the use of distortion and exaggeration for emotional effect. This art style fi rst surfaced in the literature of the early twentieth
century. Expressionism can be described as a
stylistic
art
that uses
intense color
,
agitated brushstrokes
, and
disjointed space
.
Unlike Impressionism, an
Expressionistic artists’ goal is
not
to reproduce the impression suggested by the surrounding world, but instead to
strongly impose the
artist's own sensibility to the world's representation.
Your job is to create a piece that represents an Expressionistic style.
You will use your photo manipulation and digital painting skills to create this piece.
Your piece
must represent your ideas, thoughts, and feelings of the
simple emotion
you choose to express. (like: Love, Hate, Fear, Sadness, etc...)
You will need to fi rst
plan out
your picture using your sketchbook.
(Then you will need to ask yourself questions such as:
what
simple
emotion / mood am I going for, and what colors, pictures, and/or drawings will I use to
create that emotion / mood.
