Art Analysis



The artists name is Andreas Preis, and this piece of art is unnamed. This piece resembles a snake, but has a young girl/boys body, and its morphed, and it has ink droplets running down the bottom of the arms. The artist used lines and curves in a way that is halfway unusual in art, I believe, because there are clean lines, but the detail and shading is made with smaller and thinner lines, and there is only one solid color/pigment in this piece, black. I believe that the artist was expressing how children should be feared as well as adults, because if you think of a snake, you think of a deadly creature, and humans can be more deadly than some animals. I believe the mood is fearful, because even if the child is praying, it looks like he/she could strike at any moment, like a snake. The mood is portrayed very nicely because you would believe that praying is calming, and relaxing, and then you have the snake, witch is alarming and you would want to be cautious. I personally like this piece of art, because its halfway demonic, and realistic at the same time. I like halfway real, halfway fantasy art, because it expresses yourself in a unique way. This piece reflects what I plan on drawing because, I like to draw halfway realistic art, because, like I said, in helps me express my self, in my own way, instead of having standard art, if there even is such a thing.
