Urgh. I don't know why comments aren't showing up.

I don't know why none of my comments are showing up. I think they have to be approved or something? Or my account is just weird
I'll just do it here anyway

#1 Response to Stephen's post on Murata's Pink Dot : I though different artists, Murata, and Murukami (artist I researched) have similar aspects in their art. Both use a wide range of vivid colors and have a very anime-cartoon feel. It must be a cultural similarity.

#2 Response to Molly's post on Albert Seveso: I think it’s interesting that you view Seveso’s style as redundant. I thought the complete opposite, at first glance I thought they were totally different pieces made by different artists. I think Seveso differentiates his pieces by his use of combinations of color. The colors all work together in each piece, but are distinct enough from his other his other pieces. The first is pastel-y colors, a stark contrast from the third piece that is more of the darker, richer colors. I guess it shows he’s able to work with a wide range and variety of colors and are able to blend them together well. Being a CD designer, I think he has no choice but to make his pieces look different. His designs have to accurately illustrate the band and their music. We can’t have all CD covers similar looking can we? Looking at it closer I do get the common “underwater ink” and “smoke trail” signature. It is very cool to look at, and it’s cool he does this by breaking up the main picture and re-layering it with colors.

#3 Response to Lauren's post on Rus Khasanov: His art is so interesting! at firs I thought he just photographed dippin' dots.His video was especially cool I like how he took a more scientific approach to his art. He looked at how different solutions reacted with eachother. It reminds me of science experiments when I was kid, when you put dish soap in milk

#4 Response to Justin's post on Inhyee Lee: The face jumble is completely different approach.I've never seen or heard of anything like it. Props to her for being able to think of something like that, I especially like her quote "I draw a line between them and start defining their hidden relationships”. I'm curious about the same thing you are though, does the face change with each piece or key, or is it completely randomized.

#5 Response to Becca's post on Mary Huang: Yes! I love seeing commercial artists, cause their creations/ designs are art too!  A lot of people miss that fact, despite the commercial art being the things they see the most. Especially in fashion, it should be seen as pieces, it's just another art medium. It's even better that she lets us be the artist/designer

#6 Response to Nicole's post on Jody Zellen: From the pieces you chose, there isn't really a consistent feel or look to her art. I got kinda confused, they look like they're different pieces. You did however mention in her bio that she is involved in many mediums of art such as animation, photography and web designs. That's probably why her art looks so different because she has a wide variety and is flexible.

#7 Response to Rayna's post on Milton Glasser: I agree, the I (heart) NY logo is kinda overused. I'm guilty of owning one of those shirts. That logo though, changed not just New York but everything else. It's so iconic you see it everywhere. Imagine where the world would be without it. There might be a tackier logo, I like this one, it's simple classy and timeless.

#8 Response to Aaron's post on Jared Nickerson: I really like Nickerson's art. It has that pop of color and cartoon feel. I like the Mr. Topstache vs JThree piece. It's like he purposely puts in classy elements such as the mustache and top hat to contrast the graffiti. I'm gonna look him up cause I think it'll be interesting to see his animations compared to his illustrations

#9 Response to Roberto's post on Steven Soderbergh: He's an interesting choice of director. He's not one usually one would think of. Directors that first come to mind are Roman Polanski, James Cameron (ugh) and Christopher Nolan (ehh...) Looking at his history though, he has a wide variety of movies and he works as all possible roles in a movie such as director, producer and cinematographer.

#10 Response to Ian's post on Bram Vanhaeran. His art looks really nice and I know how hard it and how much effort he must have put in them. Illustrator is sometimes difficult to work with, he had to trace each shape. The portraits are very realistic looking. But...I don't know to me it seems like a photo filter could achieve the same effect... I feel bad saying that cause I know I wouldn't be able to re-create it and that he took time to create every detail...
