Unsettling by Aly Slobadov

The theme of my exhibition is inspired by my growing interest in the horror genre within the last year. I also wanted to experiment with different mediums for each piece. My first drawing was of a character called Alex DeLarge in the film “A Clockwork Orange”, which I found in my old sketchbook from grade 10. Since the movie is quite dark and somewhat disturbing, I thought it’d fit well in the exhibition and decided to work on it to make it feel more complete. I experimented with charcoal, which I didn’t have much previous experience with. The second piece was a sketch from the summer, which I added oil pastels to, which I don’t often use. The next piece was a reproduction of a comic from the ‘50s, which was later made into one of my favorite childhood cartoons. In my last piece, I wanted to incorporate two of my polaroids that didn’t develop, and i thought they fit well since the darkness of the photo is quite unsettling.

ATTEMPTS by Forever Young

In general, people always have a feeling that fine art is just all about drawing and painting.  Well, I should not say all but most of the people are more focusing on drawing techniques.  Actually, there are various mediums in art. Therefore, trying out different styles and medium definitely helps us widen our artistic vision. Light painting and multiple exposures were skills that I have used in the following pieces. They seem difficult to be achieved but they are actually fairly easy to do. Why not have a try?

Every Passing Day by Kevin McAllum

For this series I wanted to capture the beauty of fall, from the vibrant colours of the leaves on every tree to the ominous shadows in the night that grow longer and colder with every passing day.  I also wanted to challenge myself by using pastels, a medium that is fairly new to me but with enough practice can be used to make astonishing art.
