Shahzia Sikander

Shahzia Sikander was born in 1969 in Lahore, Pakistan. Her work presents a mysterious feeling.

It is hard to tell this smog like thing. It may look like some clouds. But I can see a fiere-looking thing( face?) standing out of the picture in the middle of the drawing.  The artist did a nice job of shading, apprently.

This drawing presents a man surrounding by assault rifles like AK47s or something like these. It seems that the man is quite fond of  meditation, which did not give much attention toward these weapons. The whole picture looked like a whired one .

I cannot figure out what these objects are. These look like flowers if bird view is used, or another possibililty, a lot of sun umbrellas near the sea shore or it could be a part of the sunset process. The colors vary from light red to nearly dark black, which is quite random.

Serse

There is not much information about this artist. All I know is that this person is Italian who was born in 1952.

The artist did not use too many colors in this piece of work, however, it looks realistic since the creator used different densities in various areas subtly. The artist is very good at shading (colors of the sea, clouds, sky) and I really appreciate the effect that the sun lilght went through the cloud. Besides, the artist did a nice job of these curvy profiles, which illustrates the movement of the sea.

Unlike the fierce sea illustrated above, the snowy mountain keeps still, which forms a strong comparison.  Compared with the previous one, the sky in this picture is a bit simpler. However, I think the mountain is the real hard part for drawing due to its irregular shape and the subtle changes between the interface of scarce snow and the mountain surface.

I cannot really tell what this picture is. It seems that some people get involved in the drawing or it just shows the burning period of some firewood. The artist used warm colors like red, orange at the top part then switched to dark cold complement colors, which forms a strong visual impact.

Amelie Von Wulffen

Amelie Von Wulffen was born in 1966 in Breitenbrunn, Germany. Now she lives and works in Berlin and Vienna.

This picture presents a lively garden and three gorgeous girls. The garden is wonderful, as can be seen from the outside. The application of green and red is quite a kind of visual stimulation, which makes the whole painting a noticeable one. Besides the profile of the redhead, there are two semitransparent girls at the right bottom corner. The thing I admire most is the profound technique which renders these two floating above the background.

This one uses the same technique just like the first one. The only difference is that the girls are replaced by a formidable looking character. The painting shows a lake side view. One thing that is interesting is about the golf in the middle of the air, which replaces the normal sun. The whole painting uses a lot of dark colors which gives out a sad feeling.

This picture shows an imaginary woman which enables me to associate with a bird due to these feather like things around her. The creator used a lot of colors that makes the figure unrealistic. In general, the drawing gives me a messy feeling, which may be resulted from these feathers and numerous colors or may be that is the destination the creator wants to achieve.
