Baroque~

Baroque period focuses on applying techniques that makes immobile pictures come to life. Motion is emphasized in paintings ans sculptures during this era. This era is composed of 5 elements motion, time, light, space and theatricality.

The artwork above entitle "Happy Accidents of Swing" by Jean-Honore Fragonard is a vivid example of a painting in the Baroque period. Motion is present because we can seethe movement of the girl and her dress. There's theatricality because the viewers can see the story behind the painting. Of all the painting in this era this is my favorite because realistic approach of the artist in the current scenario.

This era I don't think I mean before studying this period I haven't think or did some artwork with lots of motion with drama. But having learned that it is really amazing how you connect things like that to show a story in a still image, that's so amazing! I want to apply this more styles or techniques of this era on my other artworks.

Renaissance

In Renaissance in this era happened the combination of different style like supreme realism. And focusing in every detail of the paintings in this era, that every not all but has meaning on it.  And also the manuscript illumination.  Here also the artists are more or focused more on humans and it is realistic or realistic because every painting they made had connection or story based on real life. This period is relevant in present expression in art because in this era, in this time people or the artists started to put in their artworks what they feel and what happened in reality by expressing it or doing an artwork. Relevant for saying that people is now open, they really do and give message in every art that they do. And there’s always a story behind every artworks.

I must say that this period has influence me in terms that I do draw or do an artwork sometimes based on what I feel, it’s just that I don’t put too much detail having tons of messages in an artwork, maybe sometimes but not all. In this period most of the things also that or the people or encouraging the artists to made tons of artworks are the patrons that badly want something as they can call as their property. There’s a lot of new things and styles that has been made and discovered in this period, lots of combinations. In this period artists has this kind of playful mind that creates a really something artworks. Mostly artworks are dramatic and intense. And about people.
