Adapt an Artist’s Work (3 Stars)

Leonardo Da Vinci painted the Mona Lisa in the 1500s. Happiness is the representation of this famous piece, in the words of Da Vinci himself. So I decided to desecrate and vandalize the Mona Lisa to change its meaning. I’ve added some facial hair, angry eyebrows, glasses and a mustache. Now, the Mona Lisa no longer represents happiness, as was one intended. She is now angry. What at, we will never know. Her beard and mustache remove the beauty from her face, and her glasses are less than flattering to say the least. It’s also a common myth that her ...
A Little Slice of the Starry Night

Using Vincent Van Gogh’s famous painting The Starry Night, I did the visual assignment Adapt an Artist’s Work for my final project story. The assignment asks us to: Adapt a famous artist’s work to change or reinforce its possible message. Here’s what I did: I incorporated it partly because I couldn’t photograph the moon in the right phase on such short notice, and partly because the painting style goes nicely with the surreal aesthetic of my story. This is the original painting. I found it on the Wikipedia page for the painting. If you click on the image, it tells you the copyright info. In ...
Surreal Closing Credits Image

If you watch the episodes of The Prisoner to the end, you will see very surreal scene. The penny farthing bicycle is standing in a desert with classical columns and statues with an ethereal atmosphere. What better canvas to merge in the skyful of men in bowlers from Magritte’s Golconda? Prisoner of Golconda Process using GIMP: I captured the scene from the episode by stopping the playback and clipping with the snipping tool. The Magritte image was opened as a layer, but had to crop to just the sky portion to eliminate buildings and other parts. I selected the sky ...

Visual Assignment 17 asks us to “Adapt a famous artist’s work to change or reinforce its possible message.” There are a lot of artists out there, but Warhol is always fun to work with. (There is another assignment to “Warhol something”, but I did that in the past, plus it’s only one point). I have chosen to work with his portraits of Mao, but to add Number 6 into the mix. Mao Number 6 The method was relatively trivial. Using GIMP, I opened as layers the pair of photos I wanted to merge. After resizing Number 6’s image to fit ...

Adapt An Artist’s Work – 3 points www.flickr.com/photos/129867899@N05/16422065742/ I changed the colors of the famous Starry Night made by Van Goh. It was previously colors had many beautiful colors and shapes. I stripped it of all its beauty into a dreary looking state. My noir’ character, Marcus, at the moment, does not see the world in a positive light at the moment. It was said that Starry Night was suppose to represent how something is watching over town to protect it from harm. In Marcus view, he believes he is on his own. That’s why the world looks so dreary……. ...

Norman Rockwell is one of my favorite artists. In this painting, Rockwell is trying to imply during the early 20th century that the United States still is a strongly Christian country. This is evident, because all the shops are closed, and the family is in their “Sunday best.” On the contrary, this shows how much society has changed. Shops are hardly ever closed on Sundays, and seeing a whole family actually dressed up and going to church is almost a rare sight. I now apply this work to the change we see in American culture in just a century.
Remix #1 (Visual) Prufrock’s Love Song
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
So, when I read Prufrock, I think of a highly intelligent, over-dramatic (and melodramatic), egocentric kinda guy. I feel like he is well-liked, but tired of always feeling examined or inspected. His obsession with his outer appearance raises his anxiety levels to an absurd level, as far as calling himself a specimen “pinned to a wall”. Sometimes I just want to tell him, “Hey, buddy…no one really cares that much about you. Stop worrying so much.” Steps to complete this picture:1. Use www.picmonkey.com 1. Find a nice black background off Google Images to use.2. Honestly, all I did was randomly ...

Okay——–This will definitely NOT earn me a “Grandmother of the Year” award! Anyway, my visual remix is a picture of my grandsons at Orange Beech this summer. I used pixlr for my project as a last resort. My initial plan was to “creep” this photo into the final beech scene from the original Planet of the Apes movie. Unfortunately, my creative brain far exceeds my technology brain (which isn’t saying much!), so I turned to plan B. I guess I still had the juices flowing from my American Lit class earlier this morning. We were discussing Native American origin ...
