Styles of Typography

Love, has that curvy italic effect. This is the kind of font you'd find on a valentine cards.

Horror has more of a thicker font, a bit like its painted on roughly. No smooth edges - sharp edges, not all filled in. They look like they're dripping or ready to transform to something unusual.

This one has more of a curly, feminine style to it. Used in Art Noveau, a little elegant.

Very computerlised, no curves or letters join. Quite square type, block.

Has a bit of humour, not serious or curvy type of font. Bubbly. Bold.

For most fonts, as soon as you see them you can tell straight away for what type of catergary they would come under just by its shape or the way it links letter to letter.

"Full Bleed Image"

This bascially means that the image takes up the whole of the space on the paper/canvas/etc, so there wouldn't be any borders around it.

Adbusters Magazine

Adbusters Magazine is slightly different to Ed Fella and David Carson, because they don't really have many images or even an image in the work it's just text. Where as Adbusters use a main image and add text either around or overlap it. They add the name of them in the picture somewhere, sometimes being either big or small font. They aren't that colourful, they are all themed quite dull, dark colours. The words are in mostly straight lines, not all the same type of font but its set out like an article or a page from a magazine.

Ed Fella

In his work, the text he has used isn't all the same there are a variety of sizes. Some are colourful and in others it's just black and white. But in each one it isn't just random words put together they are all saying something. Most of them are horizontal but the words aren't straight/in line with each other like a book. They're a little distorted, going in different ways but still able to understand. Lastly it looks a little more sketched than done on the computer.

Evaluation

Throughout this project the artists that stood out most to me were mostly JMW Turner and David Hockney. The reasons for this is because Turner had really nice shades of warm colours and the way he painted just looked amazing and I think I want my work to head into that direction. And then for David Hockney, this is because mainly of his passion for art. The way he could look at any ordinary scenery and bring out the colours into his work that not most people could see but also that he's so interested in the way that art is developing.
I liked when we experimented with Impasto (which is acrylic and flour added together then using a palette knife) this is only because it was something I've never tried  it before and it was nice to try something new. I also thought the lesson on Anslem Kiefer wasn't bad because within the work we had to add bits of natural objects like sticks, leaves, dirt and even porridge oats.
