I'm Colin Everett, I'm a Sophomore and I'm undeclared. I grew up in New York City and spent most of my Thursdays in middle school going to gallery openings with my parents. During high school I went to a boarding school in Connecticut where I focused on photography and spent a lot of time shooting for a small Episcopal newspaper called the Episcopal New Yorker. I moved to LA last year to start at USC and I didn't do anything artistic. So this year I took drawing 1 and loved it. Now I'm in drawing 2 and Design and I have spent a lot of time on my own work. Here's one piece I did earlier this year. It's an abstraction of a sunset that I titled "Inversions"
Other than that I love design and color and I just watched a movie about industrial designers called " "Objectified" and it's really really good. It's on Netflix
Have you seen "Helvetica" ? It's by the same filmmaker and is quite good. Check it out.
ReplyDeleteI really like the colors you used in your piece "Inversions." At first, my eye was drawn to the bright orange triangles. Upon further looking, I noticed how you used different shades of blue throughout the piece, which kept my attention and interest in the piece. I also like the use of different shapes in the piece and how the colors contrast.
ReplyDeleteI really like your art. I like that you juxtaposed colors that are contrasting -warm color, cold color. By this, the orange triangles really pop-out. Also, your work is interesting in that the majority of the piece is composed of triangles, but there is a circle on the top right. Your art reminds me of nature: triangles as mountains, circle as the sun, and the blue horizontal lines as the sea.
