It’s nice to see work that brings in different non-digital materials to what we’re used to. Using a combination of Staedler Graphite pencils ranging from 6H to 9B, tape and ‘Awful toxic resin‘, Brooks creates images that look like relics of nature and other objects frozen in time. I also love the gloomy and almost real effect that’s created by having elements between semi-transparent layers. They are also reminiscent of some of the pictures of flattened leaves you’d get in school science books. ‘When working on a piece I ask myself what images I want as the focus or in the foreground then literally draw the images on the layer that coincides with the layer in depth. ⓒ Brooks Salzweder, 2010 ‘Right now I’m working on new pieces with the use of gel mediums.

THE REAL LINE by Faruk Açıkalın on Prezi Andy Warhol I have seen Andy Warhol’s arts many times at the museum, but never came close to his messages through art. Warhol’s art to me is very simple and clean, yet I have learned that his art was the solution to expression during the 60s and on. Andy Warhol, famous for commercialized works, was the inspiration that helped me to begin myself in the world of art. During the 1960s, Warhol’s art marked for commercializing products such as Campbell’s soup and Coca-Cola, and also painted celebrity portraits of Marilyn Monroe, Evis Presley, Elizabeth Taylor and etc. His films, sexuality, and belief were also a great impact to the pop culture. I think that the development of Andy Warhol’s creations are fascinating as well as his life living as a famous pop artist.
Profile of Frida Kahlo Video Frida Kahlo, one of the 20th century's best artists, overcame personal tragedy, channeling it into profound works of art. Learn about this prolific artist's work and life in this bio from About.com.See Transcript Hello, I'm Milo for About.com, and today we are talking about Frida Kahlo. Frida Kahlo's Early Life Frida Kahlo was a Mexican painter best known for her self portraits. Born in Coyoacán to Guillermo Kahlo and Matilde Calderón y Gonzales she liked to say that her birth date was July 7, 1910 when in reality she was born July 6, 1907. Frida Kahlo's Health Problems Kahlo suffered life long health problems. Frida Kahlo's Work Many have described her fixation with self portraits as a sort of therapy to suffering and physical pain. Kahlo's work was not widely acclaimed until many years after her death. A central part of her psyche, her father built La Casa Azul, or the Blue House in 1907 and it became the family home where Frida grew up and to which she returned in her final years.
