Need some help with art..
View this Thread in Original format
barbina
Okay for my final in my textile drawing [aka fashion doodleing] I need to find a painting/piece of art to base my story board on.

I'm obviously far from an art history major.. anyone know of anything? I have to design 10 outfits, aka a full line, from it.. so it needs to be a little more than the damn Mona Lisa.

thanks in advance
and shin kicks to the rest of ya

google 'erotic art'. if they're naked, how hard is the assignment? :toothless

not paintings or whatever but this blog has some really cool/simple art. check out the rest of the archives/amok artists. not sure if you like stuff like this but give it a look:

ah i should have been more specific. it needs to be old.. like Renaissance etc.. like something that would be in the Louvre

So its down to Picasso or Dali


I love Guernica
I saw it at the Reina Sofia a few years ago
but I think I need something with a bit more color.. etc

You could go 'gothic' and try Victoria Frances?

barbina
see I like Guernica because of the angles. theres so much I could do with that.. and I can use the pain and angst and anger to accent the angles with colors like black and red. lol. its an easy theme... and I can do it all without being gothic and keep it feminine

I want to do a girly,feminine but still crazy fun and random line.. .. this is hard!

who ever has the best storyboard gets to produce one of their outfits. so this kinda big for me
Allied Nations
mass murder has always inspired me to make feminine clothing
