Patrick Caulfield
I love pop art. I love David Hockney's and Patrick Caulfield's work. I love simplicity and an artists ability to remove the waste; the clutter; the distractions. I love to see design in artwork and in Caulfield's work this is evident. The design is the composition ~ the shapes, colours, tone and the ability to select and omit. It's the artistic fore-thought that gives the artwork meaning.
This is my design in the style of Patrick Caulfield
Seperating cast shadow from reflected light and shade
I feel the difficulties presented when drawing light, shade and cast shadow are subtle changes in tonal values, especially when depicting cylindrical objects. I need to observe and tell myself "this part of the subject is darker than this but light than this." I try to build up tonal differences gradually.
This is my study of light reflected from one object to another
