Heidi Forster Art and Design : Fine Art Contextual Research

Nadir Afonso

I really like Afonso's style and use of colour. I think its really clever how he mixed abstract work with landscape paintings.

Rita Ackermann

Ackermann's work is really interesting to look at as each of her paintings give the viewer a story, rather than just a piece of artwork.

Mino Argento

Jo Baer

Baer's work appears very simple, which makes it look easy. Personally I don't consider her work particularly artistic as it doesn't seem to have much to it. What I do find interesting though, is why other people appreciate it so much, and spend lots of money on it. I don't understand.

Zdzislaw Beksinski

Although they're fairly gothic, I really like these paintings. The detail in them is amazing, they look like they've literally been constructed out of bones and veins.

Ashley Bickerton

I absolutely love these. They are so colourful but strangely realistic. They are really attractive to look at but at the same time a bit creepy looking, which is odd.

Thierry Bisch

Glenn Brown

These paintings are really strange. I like how they are interesting to look at, but really well painted.

Gillian Carnegie

This artists must of really liked bums!

Dan Christensen

I like these abstract paintings, and i think added to other images they would look really creative, but similar to Jo Baer's work, there doesn't seem to be a massive amount of skill.

Chuck Close

Close's technique is really unique and he must have been so patient to paint all them paintings. But I don't particularly like the end result of his work, as clever as it is.
