Liverpool Trip

The Walker Gallery was very interesting. Although there wasn't a lot of relevant art to my own, I still enjoyed it. I really adore the structure of these statues. 

The above two image are really pretty decorative pieces in which i find very beautiful. The tiny detailing and the beautiful colour use is extremely cute. It's colour theme is definitely interesting and portrays an expensive, somewhat 'royal' perspective instantly. The tiny artwork ties in this delicate piece, which may influence the way I work by incorporating even more detail in my illustrations for Alice In Wonderland.

This chair's structure is very beautiful and looks 'royal' (so to speak).  If I end up doing a slight amount of  illustration based on the surrounding area of Alice In Wonderland, this could be quite a basic chair to adapt even more of a 'crazy' design.

Extremely beautiful glass windows.

Both of the above images are of very stereotypical paintings; paintings in which you'd instantly imagine if you wear to imagine a painting. I do really like the style, although it is extremely different to mine. I like the passion and the feelings they portray.

The two interest me because they are very like Lucian Freud's work. Freud's work has always interested me because the painting style is very unique and very blended. The colours are never two bright but always very well-fitting and blend together well, very similar to this artist.  

The interesting aspect of this painting which instantly grabs my attention, is that it is very busy and very colourful. For Alice In Wonderland, idealistically, I'd like to incorporate the inspiration from this work and the wide variety of colour used. I'd like to experiment with many style and I would like to do a painting in this style. The business of the images will probably look relatively interesting if I incorporate lots of illustrations/drawings and paintings of Alice in Wonderland. 

Very traditional imagery is very interesting. A lot of this art was religion based and gave off a very strange feel. I did like these, despite me probably not incorporating them into my own work. That is, I may look at the structure of the bodies and how the background is painted, to influence my own work.

This is very 'up-my-street'. The flying house is very interesting and very beautifully painted. I love it unconditionally and there genuinely isn't one aspect of it I do not enjoy. However, this may not be how I'm going to work during this unit, it's very strange outlook is definitely going to be of some inspiration. 

The strangest yet interesting piece i saw all day. I absolutely adore the colour use, the strange painting style and the images themselves. I intend on experimenting with my style and possibly incorporating this style slightly into my own at least once. I really, really enjoy it.

This interests me. I really love that it isn't particularly gender identifiable (although many would assume a male in a long skirt.) I regret not jotting down the note next to this, as it really is interesting. 

'The Gang' was such a brilliant photography accumulation.  It was probably my favourite thing that I got out of the Liverpool trip, mainly because I love it's breach of society's expectations. All of the images are not your regular imagery and they are definitely interesting! If I wasn't so focused on illustration etc, I would contemplate creating a photo set similar. 

I have no words to describe how much I enjoyed seeing Lego there. I love lego!! 

The Docs.

"Everything is possible..." probably my favourite piece in the entirety of Tate.

More very simple photography that I adore. You see a lot of photographs like this on Tumblr and I always reblog. I love photo sets like these.

I loved how this was constructed (plus, I absolutely love the sex pistols... So I immediately loved this illustration!) 

Cubism is awesome. I really love how you can still identify the person in the image. I think (although it does not especially relate) could potentially influence my vorticism and futurism work, mainly due to the colour format. Plus, it does look ultimately robotic and futuristic. 

Jackson Pollocks art work never fails to make me smile. I love how it looks and I just unconditionally adore it. I love that it's messy format doesn't even look 'messy'; it still somehow looks very interesting and very beautiful/structured.

"The Bedroom" was a very beautifully illustrative piece that I found to be very adorable so I inevitably took a photo!

One word...Uh?...This confused me but I found it cool as hell either way! I couldn't figure out if I thought they looked really happy and peaceful or whether they looked really in pain and uncomfortable...

The Tiny House was adorable. I really like how structured it is and how it looks very small and detailed.

This live piece was a walk through room with her painting on her face. I interoperated it to be a subtle way to reflect self clarification; That being the lines reflecting the strength of herself and it being on her face/done by herself because of her self assured confidence.

The living room - I didn't spend a great deal of time in here because I was infatuated with the live art room going off not too far away, but it looked very cosy.

Selfie time.

Anthony Gormley's standing statues were very pleasant and, despite nature trying to take a hold of it's structure with moss, it to be in good nick. I think it looked very creepy from afar, considering there were multiple ones looking out to sea and it was difficult to distinguish between who was real and who was just a standing piece of material.  I really like them!

You could have probably put a picture of a sock on this wall, in this frame with that clock and chair/table beneath it and I'd have loved it. I love the entire setting this painting is hung in. I realllllllly love that wall paper!

5 man bike sounds and looks interesting...

Teeny tiny old book shop.

I really regret not entering the Andy Warhol. After I have heard everybody discuss it, the Andy Warhol section of Tate Liverpool seems to have been incredibly interesting and right up my street.
