COMING SOON: CUBISM STUDIES of Cubism Works by Shawn Ward (click image)
This week's Art Term: Cubism
Cubism was a 20th century art movement, pioneered by Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque, that revolutionized European painting and sculpture, and inspired related movements in music and literature. The first branch of cubism, known as Analytic Cubism, was both radical and influential as a short but highly significant art movement between 1908 and 1911 in France. Credit - Wikipedia.com

The "She Plays" Collection is a unique collection of acrylic works inspired by the many hats worn by the women of today. I wanted to show an orchestration type of relationship
as it pertains to how instrumental women are pertaining to life,
family, relationship and the world.
The colors are warm, yet bold and inviting. I chose colors of
inspiration, power, love, and feeling.
Culture of Red: Red is love and power, hence the red power tie for business people, Valentines, and the red carpet for celebrities and VIPs (very important people).
Culture of Yellow: Use bright yellow to create excitement when red or orange may be too strong or too dark. Yellow can be perky and encouraging.
Culture of Blue: In many diverse cultures blue is significant in religious beliefs, brings peace, or is believed to keep the bad spirits away. However, too much blue could dampen spirits.
White: The Ultimate Light, White is purity, cleanliness, and innocence. Like black, white is beautiful and goes well with almost any color.
Culture of Orange: Orange brings up images of autumn leaves, pumpkins, and (in combination with Black) Halloween. It represents the changing seasons so in that sense it is a color on the edge of ridding the old and bringing in the new. It is the color of change between the heat of summer and the cool of winter.
