Artist #4

SHAKA

The way Shaka uses simple shapes and bright colors is amazing. I love the over lapping of simple designs to bring out the features of the cheek bone and the eye brows. There is so much going on in the piece yet it still represents the human face and hands very well. The simple shapes give the figure texture almost like you where going to reach your hand into a toy box. The bright colors remind me of rainbow bringing out happiness yet the figures expression looks like he is in pain. This makes me want to ask what the painting is about or what is trying to be displayed or represented in the sculpture.
