Baroque art

  
   Baroque art has a 5 elements that are a major concern on this era, Motion, Space, Time, Use of Light, Drama or Theatrical. These elements are mostly seen in their artworks on these era. Baroque arts are mostly paintings that depicts movements, mostly examples are war look like. The paintings in these era are surely hard to make, because it is detailed and the people in the paintings are many. But most of their artworks has a theatrical and drama look. The movement looks of the painting gave it more depth and reality look. Also the shadow that has been made in it. The position of the light is diagonally, so most likely of the paintings are diagonally in shadows. Also their painting usually symbolizes things, for example are the mirror, animals, trees, windows and etc. 





     This period of art is also relevant to the present expression of art, for its 5 elements the Motion, Space, Time, Use of Light, Drama or Theatrical. The usage of light and also its time, but the the use of light is the mostly used. Motion in paintings is also important also the space. Painters on these time usually use this elements in their artworks. But nowadays they enhanced the way they use this elements. The use of these elements gives the art more depth and realism look. If these elements are not applied in some artworks, it would look like just an ordinary artwork.  

     I can also use their style in making paintings and artworks, by applying these elements on my artwork. My work will look more beautiful and real look if applied these style and improvise it with my own style. I will not only apply the method on this era but also apply everything that I learn so it would look beautiful. I will motivate myself in making artworks with the use of these styles and elements. 

Renaissance art

     Renaissance art most striking characteristics are Humanism. They are perfected the looks of the human beings. Mostly their artworks are based on what's happening. What you see in the painting is the painter's point of view, from where he stands and make his/her artwork. These artworks are mostly oil in canvas, it is a painting that are huge. They mostly detailed the human, what they wear, they're looks, they're gestures and etc. The painter's of these era, are mostly known and very famous, for example is Leonardo da Vinci, Donatello, Michelangelo, Raphael Sanzio. They are well known for their painting and other artworks. Also there are still many artist in these era who made wonderful artwork, but I think they made few artworks only, that's why they are not popular.

     The expression of art today is relevant to these era, because of humanism. Many people are still perfecting humanism, the details of the faces. But today they are not using anymore oil on canvas, mostly they use pencil. They are sketching the people whom they want to sketch and draw.
Some tried to use pointillism in their works of art according to humanism. The work that has been made through pointillism came out successful. Pointillism is a method of art where they look like a painting in far distance, but if you look closely and carefully, you will see that it is only made up of tiny little dots. Also people are doing humanism in 3D art, they put the details in it so it would look really real.



     The influence that renaissance period gave me is humanism, the way that how should I apply it. If I use humanism style, my artwork would look real and people might love it, the way they liked the artworks from the era of renaissance. I should practice more the way I use humanism style, because I'm not that good at it. Even though I may not really perfect humanism style, at least I learned how to do it, it is knowledge for me. I know that it is hard to use this method, but if I am willing to do it, it will not be that hard as long as I am motivated.
