23/02/2016 - Cave Painting Analyses

Week 07

Cave Painting Analyses 


Here I have taken my cave paintings moodboard and traced over some of the more inspiring images. I found this extremity useful as I found my self really picking up on a style. One thing I realized was that many of the paintings would have several iterations of the same drawing, and it is easy to identify an improvement with each iteration showing their ability to study and improve on their work. I believe that for me to really make these cave paintings in my cave look real I will need to add mistakes and make them not perfect. 


Some of the animals are surprisingly detailed and well painted where as others are very exaggerated. The exaggerated horn on the rhinoceros family member could have been a way for the cave person who painted it to show how deadly this animal was. This aspect is something else I will experiment with when painting my story.
