Art Critique of 'John Deweese Pottery'
In this piece of artwork i see and a handle in this. The handle is abstract while the vase is near perfect putting emphasis on the handle. The elements this piece of work contains are line and shape. The line this work contains are on the bowl part and give the piece an old, broken look. The shape of the piece makes it look elegant and very aesthetically pleasing. The principles that dominates this work is emphasis and movement. The emphasis comes from the handle and it makes you wonder what the artist was thinking when he made it. Movement in the handle is what truly captures the handle. It look as thought the handle is continuously flowing from one side to the other. I would say this piece was made recently because it has a very modern and abstract look to it. It gives me a sad feeling because it is dark. I feel like this artist was successful in creating this piece because it grabs my attention and makes me want to know what his story was.
