Students learn how to draw a one point perspective by using a vanishing point. This lesson is a great introduction to more advanced one point perspective drawing styles. This lesson has a high success rate for the students.
“Resilience” By Ellie Falle In Oil on fully handmade stretcher In my monochromatic painting, I explore an offset composition, guiding the viewer's gaze towards the right side. Using a one-point perspective, the focal point is a solitary child holding a teddy bear whilst standing amidst an ambient space, with a secondary figure emerging in the background. The subject matter delves into the profound feeling of parental neglect, a theme deeply rooted in my personal experiences shaping my identity. Growing up, the concept of neglect was pivotal in shaping who I am today. Through this artwork, I endeavor to articulate the emotions associated with feeling abandoned, employing a nuanced interplay of light and value ranging from intense brightness to profound darkness. The intentional use of stark contrasts aims to evoke a sense of holding space, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the emotional narrative. During the conceptualization phase, I drew inspiration from stock photos while simultaneously envisioning the composition and desired values. Utilizing Procreate, I crafted a mockup that integrated references, blending elements to achieve the envisioned outcome. Although my intention was to include personal photos, the scarcity of images from my childhood led me to use alternative references. A crucial aspect of this piece is the presence of a teddy bear held by the little girl. In the absence of proper parental affection, children often seek comfort in inanimate objects, forming emotional attachments as a coping mechanism. The inclusion of the teddy bear serves as a poignant symbol of this adaptive response, highlighting the resilience of the young, who, despite being out of control in their circumstances, find ways to connect with the world around them. One of my key inspirations stems from Giant Haung's painting, "A Rainy Day in Chicago," crafted in 2015 using oil paint. Haung, an esteemed artist residing in Austin, Texas, doubles as an art instructor and boasts a commendable tenure as part of the Oil Painters of America, participating in numerous prestigious exhibitions. Haung's mesmerizing piece, characterized by its monochromatic palette, captivates a bustling cityscape. As an artist drawn to using color, I found profound inspiration in Haung's deliberate and bold brushwork, drawn to the sharp, definitive strokes that define the urban landscape with a singular color. Seeking to infuse my paintings with a similar sense of dynamism, I sought to incorporate Haung's intense, decisive markings into my own creative process. Embracing this influence, I aim to evoke the energy while infusing my unique perspective and use of color into my piece. This artwork also seeks to provide a visceral experience, inviting viewers to reflect on the profound impact of neglect on a child's emotional landscape. Through meticulous composition, symbolism, and personal reflection, I aim to convey the complexities of growing up in an environment influenced greatly by abandonment and simultaneously observing the resilient spirit that emerges in the face of adversity.
