* Question #3
Lighting direction is important especially for two-dimensional art. It creates a sense of depth in the minds of the audience, despite the fact that the artwork is a two-dimensional one. In line with this, my art would require a special kind of illumination which is composed of two external white lights that are projected at the painting in an angle that is symmetrical with one another. This would make sure that the certain depths and differences in colors would be emphasized as compared to only having a single light that would produce shadows. Nonetheless, the artwork could still be redesigned in a way that would make the light an essential part of it. Perhaps an internal lighting could be added and the colors be changed into something that is reflective in order to emphasized certain characteristics and provide a vivid contrast between the different parts of it.
* Question 4
My ideas would better be communicated with a wide range of hues rather than one with a low range. This kind of tonal contrast would make the artwork more vivid, despite the lack of any other ‘hook’ such as an internal lighting, fixture, or mechanism. By focusing on simply adjusting the tonal contrast of each part and adding the simple lighting that was discussed earlier, the audience would ...
