Peer Critique of Jill





    Jill's Materials included using a pallet knife to paint most of the artwork and using matte medium to swirl the colors together. She also used acrylic paint for the body parts as well as gauche and liquid acrylic for the background. She started with adding drips to the canvas and then stamping it with plexiglass. She then use matte medium to swirl the colors together and then added the paint strokes and body parts. Jill's main idea was disconnect and she expressed that in the separation of the face and hand and also is the different sizes of each of them.
    Looking at the piece there is a sense of contrast between the body parts in the background. This emphasized the disconnect of the body parts are the different parts of the canvas and gives the feeling of chaos along with the use of texture in both the background and the hand and face. The repetition of the warmer colors on the cooler background gives movement to the work and carries your eyes from one to the other.
