A Kristoff test. This was to test an actor’s voice with some animation. The story and character were completely different from the final film. He was much more of a hopeless (and hapless) romantic in this version.

Journey sculpture I made a few years ago, before starting college. Sculpted with clay then cast in bronze, it stands  around 9.4 inches tall. It was my very first try at sculpting so it’s very dear to me!

Hot damn these are two fantastic games. If you haven’t played Journey or Okami yet you need to get on it (even though I’m quite late to the party myself).

The stunning Nasir al-mulk Mosque hides a gorgeous secret between the walls of its fairly traditional exterior: stepping inside is like walking into a kaleidoscope of colors. Every day, the rays of the early morning sun shine through colorful stained-glass windows, transforming the halls into a dazzling wonderland of rich hues, patterns, and light that play on the floor of the mosque.

Not to be immature, but it kind of looks like Arno is shooting another mini-Arno from his butt.

Photo of a fight in the Ukranian Parliament or Renaissance painting?

Slap them all in togas instead of suits and it would perfect

It also follows a pyramidal composition!

However, I would argue that this picture is more Baroque than Renaissance. Notable features of Baroque art are:

Images are direct, obvious, and dramatic.

Tries to draw the viewer in to participate in the scene.

Depictions feel physically and psychologically real. Emotionally intense.

Extravagant settings and ornamentation.

Dramatic use of color.

Dramatic contrasts between light and dark, light and shadow.

As opposed to Renaissance art with its clearly defined planes, with each figure placed in isolation from each other, Baroque art has continuous overlapping of figures and elements.

Common themes: grandiose visions, ecstasies and conversions, martyrdom and death, intense light, intense psychological moments.

In the baroque, artists strove to evoke aesthetic responses. Now I’m not talking about aesthetic as in “oh thats pretty” I’m talking about aesthetic like that punch in the gut reaction you get to something.

One of the ways this was done was through the depiction of intense emotion which we see in this photograph. compare to Bernini

The picture also displays a wonderful use of chiaroscuro (an effect of contrasted light and shadow created by light falling unevenly or from a particular direction on something) a style used extensively by Caravaggio and other Baroque artists.
