The Liar

I really enjoyed the exhibit we looked at on Wednesday. I think that the artists style is very appealing. I do think that the way he outlines things is successful and that it does not detract from the quality of the art. My favorite piece was The Storyteller or (The Liar). I think that the composition was very successful in that it activates the space in a way that draws you throughout it. I really like the artists palette. I think that the greens and reds compliment each other nicely, and that the flesh tones built using subtle traces of the green and red is quite nice. I like the subject matter as well, taking a fairy tale like pinnochio and applying it to some aspect of yourself is very interesting to me. In all I really liked the exhibit.
