Jason Liosatos gallery

To get a further understanding of Indigenous art work, I visited the Jason Liosatos gallery in Totnes.







When observing the many Indigenous portraits of African culture, I found a better understanding of how I could take my work further into developing a solid final piece idea. When I found different perspectives of portraits, it gave me more ideas in terms of how I could experiment to further my creative process such as life drawing experiments or colour experiments in deeper tone and not just looking at line, colour and pattern but the different tones also.





The visual elements that I observed during my time at the gallery were certainly the different tones and mixtures of realistic and surreal colour. The visual elements helped build the portraits into realistic and vivid images based on primary images of memories.







I feel like this visit has definitely helped me develop my ideas further in terms of what experiments I would like to do next. I will look at figure drawing as an experiment that I can voice these ideas with and look at exploring the different tone and colour whilst I do so.
