This piece of art was produced by Mijn Schatje is 2009. The piece is called Blu and its name can be interpreted as the name of the doll in the piece. This piece of art belonged to the dad and surrealist art motion. I think that the rubric of the piece. ‘Blu’ is the name of the doll in the work. but it could besides stand for the ‘blue-ness’ of the piece as there is a changeless wash of blue. blue could besides stand for unhappiness and solitariness. which is besides present in the piece through the dolls eyes. If you look closely as the piece. you can see that there are clouds and raindrops that could stand for cryings.

Content & A ; Composition
This piece of art focal points on a childlike doll’s facial look – which seems offended and sad with beautiful white hair environing it. Although this piece of graphics is phantasmagoric.

I feel that it non wholly from imaginativeness. I think that the creative person has taken inspiration off the existent ball-jointed dolls themselves and portrayed their immense eyes in this piece. There is small compositional agreement. the doll’s face fills up about all the country and in the stopping point foreground you can see weak rainclouds and rain beads and the occasional bird taking flight. As I have already said. I feel as though the doll has a sad look on its face. you can see that the eyes are about closed. as though the doll is looking down in sorrow. The colorss used in this piece are all really cold except for the little affection afflicted by the bright colorss on the doll’s palpebras. There is no obvious deformation in this piece. nevertheless. this piece is rather phantasmagoric and the doll’s facial proportions do non resemble the existent proportions of the human face – the eyes are highly emphatic. I think that this piece is rather actual. because you can state directly off that is a portrayal of a doll. nevertheless. there is room for readings because you can make up one’s mind what the rainclouds and the the bird symbolize. cryings or the conditions?

Procedure and Technique
I was unable to happen the exact technique used to make this piece nevertheless. harmonizing to the cyberspace ; this piece is a alone Giclee print. Since Mijn Schatje is a popular illustrator. there is a high opportunity that this piece was created through some sort of art package. You can non see any brushstrokes in this piece. everything is rather airbrushed. I think that I could retroflex this piece by utilizing acrylic pigment because it is easy to intermix and I think I can utilize cotton wool to stand for the clouds on the piece. I besides want to make texture for the hair. I could utilize thick plaster. paper clay or some sealant. Colour and Tone
