Artist Inspirations

"Umbrella Man" Sebastian Kruger is a characacher artist. In his works he uses an immense amount of detail as well as the concept of contrast. He's one of my favorite artists because he can take an everyday individual and exaggerate their physical characteristics which makes them look ridiculous. 

 "Grevy's Zebra" Andy Warhol is a famous Pop artist. In most of his works he uses vibrant colors to make the pieces stand out. Not only did Warhol paint, but he also worked in mediums including sculpting, printmaking, and cinema. 


"Hand with Reflecting Sphere" M.C. Escher is an artist well known for his works in drawing and printmaking. Escher is one of my favorite artists because he can make you see things from a different level whether it would be his use of repetition in his tessellations or the composition in his drawings.


"Unknown" Edgar Mueller is a familiar street chalk artist. Mueller's works interest me because their 3-D outlook that he applies. Although you know they are done of the simple street, he can make it seem as though you are really falling of a ledge or even falling into rapid water.


"Edward Scissorhands" Tim Burton is a famous film director, film producer, writer, and artist. Burton is one of my favorite individuals of all time not only for his art works but for his films as well. His "far-fetched" imagination and skills of creating quirky and weird characters proves a brisk uniqueness to me.
