Dreamworlds And The Art Of Illustration, Donna Crotchett
Dreamworlds And The Art Of Illustration, Donna Crotchett
Masters Theses
While I was growing up, illustrations made deep impressions upon me. An illustration is a picture that explains and adds interest to the written part of a printed work such as a book. Often overlooked by others, for various reasons, this means of communication played a significant part in my life and art.
The history of illustration is a history of men and women, serious artists, who have produced an enormous amount of high-quality work. Many of their illustrations had their origins in fine art such as early religious painting and mythological themes. A large number of fine artists have …
Faust In His Study: The Paradox Of Visual Representations And Poetic Possibilities, Donna Ramsey
Faust In His Study: The Paradox Of Visual Representations And Poetic Possibilities, Donna Ramsey
Institute for the Humanities Theses
The Faust theme has inspired individuals to creative endeavors over the years. While many of the resulting literary works are widely recognized and highly valued, few of the pictorial efforts have been similarly acknowledged. This investigation treats this apparent paradox as it applies to the soliloquy in the first scene of Part I of Goethe's poetic drama. The first part of the study compares the written word with its graphic interpretation, utilizing twenty-seven portrayals of Faust in his Study. The second section traces the iconography of the scene in a broader context, using twenty-eight prototypes which correspond to the depictions. …

Photographic Imagery As A Source For Iconography In Painting And Drawing, Eric Peder Brakken
Photographic Imagery As A Source For Iconography In Painting And Drawing, Eric Peder Brakken
All Master's Theses
Any verbalization of an artistic statement is by its very nature, an inadequate interpretation. However, I feel there is some merit in a concise declaration of my general concepts in the study. This paper represents a summation of the concepts and directions involved in my studio investigation in painting and drawing.
Specifically, it is within the scope of man's altered and effected perception of reality that I have based the studio research.
I Made Some Prints, Teresa O. Tempero
I Made Some Prints, Teresa O. Tempero
All Master's Theses
In discussing the prints and drawings chosen for this study, I wish to consider mostly subject matter and composition, giving less mention to technique. The three forms of printmaking used are intaglio, collagraph, and woodcut. A specific theme was not chosen for these prints. Since printmaking has been such a relatively new experience of expression for me, I chose to concentrate this study on the printmaking process.
A Use Of The Visual Metaphor: The Relationship Between The Figure To The Environment, Betty Anne Skalicky
A Use Of The Visual Metaphor: The Relationship Between The Figure To The Environment, Betty Anne Skalicky
All Master's Theses
In this study the human figure was used as a departure. I imposed my own style of drawing on the human form in order to achieve not only the illusion of a threedimensional quality, but to create a personal identification with the image on the part of the artist and the viewer.
Expansion Systems In Drawing, Anna Jane Licka
Expansion Systems In Drawing, Anna Jane Licka
All Master's Theses
Drawing as a creative mode of expression has maintained in some artistic circles a "puristic doctrine." "Puristic doctrine" in this case means the utilization of characteristic drawing implements and techniques (ie. pen, pencil, ink, charcoal, crosshatching, shading). In contrast to this "puristic doctrine" is what can be termed an "eclectic expression" in art. As applied to drawing in this thesis, an "eclectic expression" will go beyond the traditional techniques by the application of other media such as photo-stencil, stuffed fabric, and three-dimensional tableau considerations. The purpose of this creative thesis is to expand the two-dimensional quality of drawing into a …
A Series Of Figure Drawings, Amy Allen Gierke
A Series Of Figure Drawings, Amy Allen Gierke
All Master's Theses
It is the purpose of this study to create a series of figure drawings by means of experimentation with various materials and techniques, with a brief study on artists and their need and potential to delve in fantasies and mystical realms, just as the candidate will do in certain stages of development.
