Tracey Tawhiao

 In art, I have to make another blog post on Tracey Tawhiao. This one is about how she uses space, color, and objects in her work. 

The first thing I had to do was a thumbnail sketch. 

thumbnail and original


The objects she uses to make the artwork are pieces of newspaper, acrylic paints, and a canvas. the objects she uses in the artwork are fish. she has also kept a picture of a kiwi, and the word 'Inside' from the newspapers underneath the paint.

There is also not a lot of free space in the painting. It is mostly taken up by fish though the fish are only line art, so you could say the space in the fish counts. She has also filled each fish with triangle designs and one with Maori designs. 

She also uses only a handful of colors. This helps to not keep the painting too busy, and keep it easy on the eyes. The red color is bright and helps to grab the eye. 

I think that is all I need to do here. =)
