Pearl District Art Galleries

The trip to the galleries in the Pearl district was inspiring, especially because of the variety of art from each different gallery. There was photography, painting, sculptures, and a variety of other media used. I liked the unique style of the drawings of the animals in the piece above. I also thought it was interesting that they were overlaid newspapers. 

I liked the image above of the boy under the water because of the unique quality and texture that the water has on his face and body makes the image beautiful. The light reflecting off of the water also makes the image more beautiful


I liked the sculpture above because it is abstract and the objects don't necessarily have a purpose. I liked that hey weren't evenly spaced out and I thought that the one black ball tied the piece together. It was just interesting to look at and made me wonder what inspired the artist.

I loved this piece because of the interesting connection between the owl and the face. They are both painted very carefully with lots of detail, but the fact that the face and hair replaces what would normally be the owls feathers makes the piece much more interesting. 

I thought that this piece was interesting, unique, and abstract. I liked the minimal use of color and it reminded me of the simplicity of Japanese style art.
