My Artist analysis

I was previously using a different artist to the one I am now (Paolo Troilo) but I converted to my current one due to the fact that his work was more similar to what I want to achieve rather than Troilo's, this new artist is Italian and is called Giorgio Arcuri.


The reason I like this artist is because he does more of a variety of work although most oh his pieces are still figurative, although I want to base my work off his work, my main idea is to use my pass skills in order to create an abstract twist on it. The way I have already started to do this is by using my PVA glue and paint mixture to create certain aspects of the drawing but I would like to emphasise this further.


Here are some of my favourite pieces of Arcuri's work;

The reason that I especially like the first two pieces is because they are both a simple background of pencil drawing but with bursts of colour in certain places in order to add emphasis and contrast.

Arcuri has many different collections within his work, the first one is 'Le Parole Non Bastano' ('Words Are Not Enough') which contains a series of different mouth movements which is something
I am specifically focusing on at the minute, especially getting inspiration from the top left piece. Here is one piece I have already done and one I am currently working on, next to Arcuri's piece's.

The second collection is purely a selection of hand movements which I have focused on except with a different artist that I mentioned at the start, despite this my work did turn out to have more features of Arcuri's work rather than Troilo's. This part of Arcuri's work is called Sfumature Di Un Tocco which translates from Italian to English as 'Shades Of A Touch'. Here is an image of one of my similar pieces next to Arcuri's work.

There are also lots more, different collections but my favourite and the one that I think I want to be moving on to soon is simply called 'Drink Collection' involving a selection of alcoholic beverages in a splashing motion almost as if something has been dropped in them or thy have been poured in to the glass very heavily. The reason I think doing something similar to this would be good for me is because the PVA glue and paint solution I create is very good for showing movement and motion.
