1981 spawns many marvelous pieces of art including David Parrish's engaging piece, Royal Chevy, approximately 8 by 12 feet in dimension. Royal Chevy immerses the audience in a visually appealing depiction of riding a classic motorcycle in the great outdoors. Blue hues represent the sky as dark grays and blacks stand for asphalt on the ground. This alone enables viewers to note that Royal Chevy features the depiction of a Chevy motorcycle outside. Store purchased wood becomes stretchers put together through the usage of a nail gun combined with glue. Diluted glue holds the fabric on the applied chipboard which is also held by nails on the back of the canvas.

to work with oil based paint. Patiently applied paint results in a smooth surface, telling the viewers that Parrish was a cautious artist who spent a lot of hours on his pieces.
Nervous and confident lines make up the very realistic painting. Smoother lines illustrate less detailed areas as uneven lines make up detail in the painting. Fine lines illustrate the front suspension, also known as the fork. Curved lines draw the fuel tank while broad lines outline the frame of the bike. Geometric shapes emphasize metallic structures of the motorcycle frame and surrounding parts. Circular pipes with circular frames. Circles are demonstrated in the frame of the motorcycle including but not limited to a front suspension, key hole, mirrors, handles, screws, wheels, and wheel rims.
Photo-realistic illusion gives the vibe of a 3D space depicted on the 2D space in stunning detail. Large canvases immerse the audience and enables painters to include more detail to their artwork.
Cool hues include a vast amount of blues as well as some grays, silver, and white. Outdoor settings are easily depicted using cool colors. Warm colors such as red and yellow reflect areas of the Chevy that are not within the field of view of the artwork. Pink and green shades are also present indicating the color of the fuel tank and front fender. Darkest darks are demonstrated in various shades of the neutral color black on the seat of the bike and wheels and the lightest light is used on metallic areas that reflect sunlight such as wheel rims and the frame of the
bike. Blue text with white outlines depict the text “CHEVYS” right side up and upside down as a distorted reflection in the piece. Specific angles remind the viewer of automobile advertisements featuring a product in the most appealing angles. Zoomed in brand logos burn a memorable image of the company advertising the end product. David Parrish's execution is flawless and questions the viewer whether Royal Chevy was completed as a commission to advertise for Chevy. Negative space emphasized by the use of a proper sky blue backdrop allows the viewer to experience the cool breeze of wind outdoors in a typical hot Alabama setting as well as the smooth feeling of leather seats featured in the Chevy. Bold black hues which make up the leather transcend a vibe of smoothness to the fingertips as though they are in contact with the seats. Imaginary sounds of an empty seashell is present upon placing an ear as close to the painting as the security guards allow. Parrish transfers a positive feeling of a sunny day relaxing on highway driving a motorcycle in the soothing cool wind without outside interference. Gender is irrelevant as man or woman views the painting as an individual who visualizes themselves riding the bike as part of the experience. David Parrish's field of view, angles, and clever line work draw a particular audience that could be potential future consumers for Chevy motor vehicles. Royal Canvas' large canvas immerses the audience with great detail that cannot be experienced on a small scale painting. Photo-realistic depictions on a 2D surface engage and distract the viewer and raises questions as to whether or not Royal Chevy is an advertisement first and foremost. Regardless of viewers' opinions, David Parrish's Royal Chevy is successful as an impressive and legitimate work of art.
The black background contrast with the predominate colors of blue and red gives these colors intensity. The red and green are complementary colors that give the painting visual appeal. The green juxtapose above the blue and red gives the artwork color balance as well as implies a triangular shape. The triangular shape and pattern is repeated throughout the painting by; the bend of the flute player's elbow, the head and shoulders of the guitar player, the head and shoulders of the lady whose back is to the viewer, the body of the guitars and the location of the three right-most musicians
The corvette was first introduced in January 1953. To experiment with the car, they only made 300 cars, which were all made by hand and powered by a 235-cubic-inch 6-cylinder engine. The corvette was designed to show the world that General Motors could make a sports car that was a stylish two seater. All 1953 corvettes were polo white with red interiors. The engine of the car generated 150 horsepower and had a 2-speed power glide automatic transmission. Researchers have found that the first corvette has been known to go over 150 miles per hour.
The automaker Chevrolet has experienced much technological change in the past 104 years. Although it, Chevrolet, is a French name, it is an American car company. It was primarily founded by William C, Durant, along with Louis Chevrolet, on November 3, 1911. It wasn’t until six years of existence that it became part of the Automotive Division at General Motors, otherwise known as GM. Durant had previously tried to buy out Ford and failed. This caused him to resort to co-founding Chevrolet. The first car sold by the company commonly called Chevy was the Classic Six, at the price of 2,500 dollars. Chevy started producing these vehicles in 1912-1913. The car’s value may seem like pocket change but that is the common day equivalent of roughly 57,000
The illusion is so convincing that the person that is admiring the room would think that the figures or persons are different sizes and might be twins, but in reality it is all about how they are collocated ( one is closer than the other one ) and the way the shape of the walls are and how they’re connected. Although theres other studies that show that theres no need for the room to have a ceiling or walls. This happens because the same room can have a horizontal division but in reality is not horizontal against an appropriate background and the eye relies on the apparent relative height of an object above that horizon. However, this effect can be seen in many movies nowadays.
At this time, not only was the affair of no education, but there were pollution clouds throughout the entire country. For instance, “In a very well depicted work of art, it demonstrated much smoke spewing out of small buildings and heaps more out of factories” (Document 3). The smoke escaping into the atmosphere was not an issue back then. There were no regulations and restrictions on how much pollution was allowed to be produced. Nowadays, decrees are passed to regulate the consumption of nonrenewable elements. In addition, “document 4 explains the process of assembly lines, which Henry Ford thoroughly enjoyed using, and how they aided in the pollution filled skies”(Document 4). Henry Ford was bringing a wonderous idea into the world, but
The first thing to notice about this painting is how incredibly involved and realistic the brushwork is. The couple’s faces are so delicately rendered. Every wrinkle is visible and every hair strand is in it’s place. The soft folds and patterns of their clothing, and the grain of the vertical boards on the house, are highly developed and reveal Wood’s incredible attention to detail. The man, especially, appears to be nearly photorealistic.
..., the broader feel of the scene. He wants us to take in the entirety of the painting but have a moment to catch the individual scenes within it, like the couple dancing, the man in the corner rolling his cigar, or the women in the front talking to the man. We do get places where our eyes can rest, but in general your eye takes in the swirl of modern life and pleasure.
Beyond what they painted, Impressionists conveyed the modern city through their style of painting. They used techniques that emphasized that the scene was a moment in time. Many of their paintings were sketch-like, using thin but visible brushstrokes. They depicted light and shadows accurately, which often set the painting at a certain time of day. Also, they conveyed a sense of movement in their paintings, especially in human figures. These factors allow viewers to believe that the subjects of a painting w...
These two elements give the piece an excellent sense of realism, it’s almost like you’re there with pitcher at that patriotic moment. Shape also plays a huge elemental role in this piece. In this painting the geometric shapes of the car draw the eye. Almost every basic shape one could think of stands out in this piece: the circular headlight and rectangular front end were two of the first things to catch my eye. These geometric shapes in combination with the underlying tone of the organic shapes of the flags and Cobra give this piece contrast as well as the light and dark elements of
A. Line – An irregular soft line is used to establish the eye level/horizon in background between the sky and the field. The diagonal lines define the field and are in an opposite direction of the diagonal lines that define the trunk off the tree in the middle of the picture. The diagonal lines in the field, the horizon line, and the edge of the painting create a linear perspective.

But if we are looking for a more modern take on virtual reality we would start in the early 1800’s with a paint style called “Panoramic paintings”. So what are these and how do they relate to virtual reality. Well these paintings were made to fill a person’s field of vision, making them feel like they are at the historical event, scene, or battle they are looking at. (“History Of Virtual Reality”, 2017).
Two dimensional computer generated imagery was used to express depth and to produce new shades that could not be depicted just through animation and drawing.

Starting with visual elements I saw lines, implied depth, and texture. I see lines by him using lines created by an edge. Each line is curved not straight but it works with the piece. By using this he creates the piece to make it whole. He uses many curved lines within the painting I don’t know if there is a straight line in the whole thing. The next element I saw was implied depth. Using linear perspective you can see the mountains but they look smaller than the rest of the piece. They are the vanishing point in the back making it look as if you can walk down and they will get closer and closer to you. The last element that I saw was texture. They talk about Van Gogh’s painting, The Starry Night having texture through a two- dimensional surface, in which this painting has that similar feel. Van Gogh uses thick brush stokes on his paintings to show his feelings. There is actually a name for this called, Impasto,
