Notes
Identity of Bob Ross was influenced by Place
|
|
Bob Ross identified with the landscape in Alaska and the peace that it offered him. He had been a master sergeant. His job was to yell at soldiers all day and when he retired he chose to never raise his voice again. You get a sense of this in his series joy of painting with his soft voice and idyllic trees. Where do you go to feel at peace ?

TEACHER EXAMPLE
Queen of heart(s). I chose the concept of a playing card and used it to show the two sides of my life In showing my identity I need to show the contrast of my two sides: busy and needing time by myself. Single me is holding the tulip a symbol I use quite often for my children because of a memory. The Mom version of me looks tired, makes my favorite spaghetti sauce that I see as nurturing. , I am loved by my husband even though I am not the prettiest when at home
. I used colors and shapes to show the difference between dramatic action with red sharp shaped background versus the, blues and calming curves. In my composition I chose to show her off center with one arm up and one arm down. The arm that became down became a hand used in the other person later created. I also wanted to create a diagonal with my two people instead of having them directly start to show more action with that diagonal line. I allowed my hair to flow and trees to go beyond the inner frame of the playing card This added a sense of freedom. My busy yourself has space more constrained by the inner border and is compressed.
How can you use contrast, balance principles of art to help you show the facets of your personality. How will you use line, shape, color to set the mood?
