I have been looking online to find information and ideas to go with my concept of figure and form - pregnancy. As i am quite fond of printing, some prints on the website www.pregnantearth.com really stood out to me. These are fine art prints that are for sale.
I like this image because you can see the baby inside of the womb, and the effect of the blue background of the body reminds me of a sea and its like the baby is in the ocean. This portrays a calm, peaceful environment for the baby. However, having the black background gives a dark and mysterious feel, I prefer images that are brighter.
I really like this image due to the contrast of the colours. To me it looks like the woman is sitting in the moon, blowing out stars. This gives a magical effect, perhaps showing how magical pregnancy can be. I like the use of line in this print, the figure simply being shown by black lines gives a graphical look.
I really like the use of line and colour in these pieces of work. This is something i want to look more in depth at. Also, i think they have a pop art feel to them. Finding these images is a definite starting point for me. I look forward to producing some of my own prints in the style of these ones. Some parts of these images have digital and water colour aspects of them too.
