Introduction

The artist for this work is Mr. Paul McCarthy. The title of this work is the VR experiment Mary and Eve, 2017, and drawn in a square dimension. The picture shows beautiful women who are on a stage and beautifully dressed in gorgeous dresses and with fantastic hairstyles, with all taking different postures. The drawing is showing women who are amazed and at the same time trying to draw the attention of their audience with much care if not all, and eye contact directed and maintained to their audience.

 

The art is full of gorgeous and variety of colors, including maroon, blue, black, yellow colors, and pink, which is presented very nicely. Some patches of the white color are also presented. The colors are so bright and beautiful to the eyes, and on seeing them, one gets his attention drawn to look further into the artwork, and all that comes out makes one very impressed with this work. There are platted lines on the dresses which are worn by the ladies shown in the art. These lines are an essential part of the work since they show and add beauty to the suit, therefore, making the clothes look more decent and attractive. Actual texture has been used in the art to stimulate feelings and attraction of the audience, and from this work, the surface used makes it feel just as it appears, it is a very smooth and beautiful texture indeed. In Paul’s work, he uses a natural source of light, which makes his work more appealing to the eyes and brings out his work in a transparent manner and presentation.

McCarthy draws our attention to a lot for instance how they ladies in his drawing are standing, their eye contact, different shapes and ways of learning, all these draws our attention and makes us more attracted to his artwork. The artwork is also quite balanced in all the margins, and having good symmetry with all the colors and other compositional techniques are quite marching and all very well represented in this work. In his work, Mr. Paul uses variety qualities to bring understanding in the different elements of his art; for instance, he chooses to use different colors, shapes, and variety of factors to make his work appealing, and be more visual to his intended audience, these are exciting combinations. He uses them to perfection in this art. Paul also uses an element of unity to bring harmony in his work, this is evident where he tries to match the different shapes, colors, and even heights to bring harmony in his work, and this adds value and sense to the art. The artist properly uses scale and proportion in this work in a great deal to bring good harmony and perception to his work for instance, the heights, shapes and sizes are all drawn in different and matching proportions and scales, which can be seen by those viewing the art. The images are brought into different sizes in relation to the other, showing his quality in the use of scale and also the varying sizes in relation to the other clearly gives and shows is intentions of employing the element of proportion in his work. In this artwork Paul employs rhythm constantly to provide visual tempo, this he does through use of the different and repetition of the colors, shapes and the lines to make his work more appealing and attractive to his audience.

There’s nothing as important as the message portrayed and communicated by the paintings; this enhance acceptability of the message, due to the overall engagement of the very important and crucial sense organs. The artist is trying to communicate a message of modernity; this is embracing western culture. Bringing the new fashion design in the market, this is seen to be promoting and empowering women. A life of full of luxuries and comfortability is also noted in the painting, true enjoyment of freedom and free will. This is a remembrance of the long term thing of the United States that says “the land of the brave and free.” The emotional sense of beauty and live is seen in the painting. This is emphasized in the mood of dressing, the design if dressing seems to be romantic apparel—some romantic date with a beautiful western woman. The picture again displays some enjoyment, the emotional appearance of free will enjoyment is also noted. This has culminated in the arrangement of the event and the ways in which the ladies in the pictures are looking and observing things. The picture is full of elements that are familiar to the daily occurrence and organization of the current event and parties. This is manifested in terms of the apparel and the outlook in the pictures. It’s a representative of the luxurious life being enjoyed by the few in a modern society. It also represent a culture that promotes and emphasize the role and contribution of the women in the society. In my view, this image summarizes the expectation of the feminist and the entire world: a true representation of the beauty as the key responsibility of women in our societies. Good organization and unity is also another thing that is represented in the picture, an emulation of peace and reconciliation in the world. A strong connection is noted between the subject matter of the picture and the techniques. Women being promoted into the realization of the importance of western culture.  The methods and medium used reveal and support this connection, this is supported by the theme color used that tries to highlight the importance of woman and the environment therein. Portrait techniques and the paper in which all these are done stands to be the best media that could be used by then. A high-quality paper that reveals how western culture is of high quality and demands high attention to introduce. Cultural themes and influences are not left out in this. An Introduction of this western culture possesses a lot of influence in the community and even to the people far from the locality of the artist. It’s thought to be changing the long known norm in the community, it brings a lot of lifestyle changes if it was to be adopted. Mode of dressing that leaves the upper shoulder and back necked is communicated in the pictures. A suggestion that will take time to adopt for people who are inclined to the traditional cultures. This is potent to appear offensive to the developing countries or to some religion.

This art has an intrinsic value as evidenced by the beauty of the art and work are done by this artist, the work is very attractive, and viewers can indeed feel that it is very appealing to the eyes. It gives an essential social message of modernity and way of dressing of the people, and in a way, some people with strong religious beliefs in a way may have some criticism for it here and there. The work can have an effect on other artists and those who would want to learn and borrow ideas. Thus, it is a beautiful piece for learning and improving on their work in some areas and aspects; therefore it could act to motivate and inspire them. The use of visual elements and principles of design has contributed significantly to the success of this work because they make and add value to the job.  It makes it appealing and very attractive to the viewers and does McCarthy’s work to rank among the top if not the best of them all. This work inspires me in my life since I love art so much and makes me feel nice and attracted more and more, it also encourages my dream of becoming a good artist someday in my life since I am able to learn a lot regarding artistry through this. I think Mr. McCarthy decided to work in this manner and make such artistic decisions based on his wealth of experience in artistry since he clearly knows how to merger all the styles, rhyme among other very important techniques of artistry and with all such at his disposal he everything he touches and does clearly becomes very beautiful and his intended message is very well understood by the viewers.

Conclusion

In summary, the work done by Paul McCarthy is an exciting and beautiful work with a lot of techniques put into place, but in straightforward ways, it is appealing to the audience and tells more about his rich experience and wealth of knowledge in this field.
