_{Wayne White}

_{^{FOE, 2014, cardboard}}

^{_{I chose Wayne White’s cardboard sculpture called FOE, because the design is simplistic but effective. The most successful aspect are the single lines that curve into interesting shapes like the circles and spirals. I believe the least successful aspect of the piece is that it looks too flat. I plan to incorporate some of the twists that he used into my own piece. (left)}}

_{Kiel Johnson}

^{_{Polaroid Camera, 2009, cardboard}}

_{^{I chose Kiel Johnson’s piece called Polaroid Camera, because it’s beautiful and very realistic. The most successful aspect of the horse are the connected circular patterns that make up the entire piece. I am inspired by this and I don’t see anything unsuccessful. I would like to incorporate the interconnected pattern into my giraffe project to make it more full looking. (right)}}

_{Chris Gilmour}

_{^{Bikes, 2003, cardboard}}

_{^{I chose Chris Gilmour’s work called Bikes because… The most successful aspect of it, is that although it’s abstract, it’s still recognizable as a female face. I enjoy the cartoon features, however, the least successful aspect is that it’s flat and I want to avoid that in my piece. I would like to incorporate the swirls into the spot pattern in my project.

_{James Grashaw}

_{^{A City, 2010, cardboard}}

_{^{by James Grashaw’s cardboard sculpture called A City influences my since…because the artist created a good example of a fully three dimensional piece. The most successful aspect of the piece is the two-toned colored wire that makes the white keys stand out. The least successful aspect is the detail on the lid because I’m not sure if it’s suppose to be music notes or a reflection. I’d like to incorporate the use of the smooth curves of wire into my piece. (right)}}

_{Laurence Vallieres}

_{^{There’s an Elephant in the Trunk, 2013, cardboard}}

_{^{I chose Laurence Vallieres’s called There’s an Elephant in the Trunk because although it’s created out of tangles, it shows a lot of detail in the dancer such as her dress, hair and face. The most successful aspect is the small motion of her leg which has a big impact on the piece. I think the least successful aspect is the. I would like to incorporate the use of slight movement into my own piece (left).}}
