So, for my Honors English class, we're allowed to do pretty much anything for our final project that incorporates what we've learned. We read a lot of classics (Odyssey, Metamorphoses, Agamemnon, Aeneid, Lais de Marie, ect.) and so I'm doing a three-panel art piece of Clytemnestra from Aeschylus' Oresteia. My original plan was to go "man, woman, and king." The above is the woman piece, ie: she acts like a man, she is a king, but she's still a woman. I'm trying to develop the other two better, so I've been getting some ideas. Here they are:
|
Tamara de Lempicka |
|
Another Tamara de Lempicka |
|
Gustav Klimt |
|
John Singer Sargent |
|
Gustav Klimt |
The second panel is in the style of Tamara de Lempicka and the third hopefully will be Gustav Klimt. That depends a bit on if I can get my paints from home. I just have watercolors and colored pencil here now. The Tamara-style thing is in colored pencil.
